So happy that I stumbled on this hidden gem! The inside of the bakery is beautifully decorated, and the shelves are packed with a large variety of desserts. My friends and I decided to try the red bean paste bun, sweet potato bun, coffee roll, chiffon roll, peanut streusel bun, and custard bun. All the fillings were delicious (the custard and red bean paste were silky and had the perfect amount of sweetness) and the bread/cake in each was perfectly moist and tender. My favourites were probably the custard bun and the red bean paste bun.
