Love the egg tarts!! I always buy at least 6 because my friends always steal them from me. Eaten egg tarts from here since I was a kid and they are still the best. Their cakes are also delicious and my family always complains when I bring home egg tarts but no cake. Egg tarts are a must try as well as the cakes!

Best egg tarts in the whole of Melbourne. Those egg tarts are so addictive. Especially the ones that just came out of the oven. The birthday cakes are also quite nice especially the chocholate mousse.

They were helpful and friendly when I asked for their honest suggestion for my special needs for birthday cake. Reasonable price and quick service. The one that I like the most is the blackforest cake.

Approximate cost: $20

I love this Cantonese cake shop - small but with lots of choices! Egg tarts, red bean Bao, cookies... you can just order and wait a couple of minutes to be served with all the hot fresh delights!
It could be crowded though sometimes and so I have to be patient :)

The Egg tarts are fantastic. The egg tart fillings have great taste and also the crust are also tasty. Unlike, most places they make their egg tart crusts sweet too.. just like eatting a cookie.

Approximate cost: $1.5

I love the egg tarts. They are usually just out of the oven or will be in a few minutes. They have that lovely eggy flavour and silky texture. They melt in your mouth. They also do lots of the usual buns and rolled cakes. Their special occasion cakes are delicious, not too sweet with light fillings and icing. The Taro cake is particularly good, but comes in an unusual colour.

The only thing I don't like is that they sometimes put things in boxes (example: pastry pork puffs) that are sturdy enough to go into a bag and things into bags that need the rigidity of a box (example: hot egg tarts or cream buns that stick to the bags).
