Maxim's Bakery Chinatown

The fresh mango cake was absolutely heavenly. The thin fruit slices were so fresh and tasty and the not too heavy whipped cream with the light cake base was just so well done. Also got a bunch of really tasty smaller pastries that were SUCH good value amazing egg tarts, pineapple bun, Mexico bun… all these things for under $50. Cash only… but to me the ever so slight inconvenience is more than worth the incredible deal you get.

Their yin yang (coffee/tea mix) is my favorite!! Be careful with their massive sugar bottles tho, it will give you twice the sugar you want! We had French toast, pineapple bun, and broccoli soup; and they were all excellent….and inexpensive. Cash only.Their French toast is so different from western kind but so good. It’s a must try.Also liked their mango pudding. It had lots of fresh mango pieces. One of the best in town.

One of the few remaining HK cafe still in Chinatown. Being on the second floor it is a bit more hidden, but when the craving for fried rice and noodles, this is the place to go.The pineapple bun with butter comes with a nice thick slice of cold butter, and the bun just warms it up slightly for that nice contrast when you eat it.Milk tea is always good and can't go wrong with any of their fried rice and noodles dish.
