TLDR Review: Very nice service and good desserts/pastries that wont break your wallet! Got 3 buns for under 5$. Well worth it. - - - ----------------- Detailed Review: This review is based off of 4 categories. Food, Service, Atmosphere, and Cleanliness. The stars are divided among these categories and weighed more heavily on FOOD. This will hopefully help people understand why the place is good at and why I rate the # of stars. Food is rated out of 4 main grades with the total . Unacceptable (0 stars) , Not Good (.5) , Fair (1) , Great (2 stars-Max given)) The other categories are graded by 3 levels. Max 1 star for each category. Unacceptable (0 stars) , Fair/Good (.5), Great (1 stars-Max given)) Max total of stars: 5 FOOD: (Great!! 2 out of 2 stars) -Buns are dense but retains moisture and the softness in the bun -Because it is dense, the buns are slightly heavier than other buns Ive tried around the area. Possibly due to also more filling -The bread doesnt feel dry. Reminds me of Hokkaido Milk Bread. perhaps it is!??! -I love how much filling this bakery gives. Check my photos out for the Custard bun and see how much filling is inside it! -Very nice and soft filling. Flavorful and a lot of character. -Its nicely priced and inexpensive (saying cheap would make the food sound "okay" BUT ITS NOT. THE PASTRIES IS GREAT!) SERVICE: (Great: 1 out of 1 stars) -I was served by a nice lady behind the counter. She recommended and told nice stories behind several of the buns. She also described how some of the buns were made and I was surprise about the amount of pride behind them! Confidence is good! She even told me which were the fresher ones without asking! Felt like a nice personal conversation and I was very pleased. ATMOSPHERE: (Good/Great: .75 out of 1) -I didnt pay attention to this too much but there wasnt anything distinctly bad. I liked how the wall where the entrance is is basically one big windowed wall and you can chill and see people pass by. For the price of the food and such, the place has ok furniture. Dont expect comfy booths. Its a bakery not a restaurant lol. CLEANLINESS: (Great: 1 out of 1 stars) -Atmosphere wise, there isnt anything outstandingly bad but the place looks clean. The food/pastries were handled professionally and with thongs. Not too picky with this category cause I dont think its that important. Total Stars: 4.75 out of 5. Basically a 5 star imo. For the price and the nature of the bakery. It exceeds my expecations. It would be a different story if its meant to be more fancy/pricey.

I love the pastries here, they make the best fruit tarts, and the cakes are light and just the right amount of sweetness. The frosting on the cakes is not icing, its more like whipped cream, which makes everything taste so much better. I highly recommend this place, I havent one like it anywhere else in Seattle.

BEST BBQ Pork Buns in the ID. $1.50 each. They are out quite often because they are so good. If you have 20 minutes you can always ask them to make you some. They can easily be frozen and eaten later too. Just Sayn!

I fancy the savory pastries like the curry puffs/turnovers, or their mini-chicken pies. Baked pork buns are good too.

The coconut buns are why we have been coming here for years, but everything is good and worth a try.
