Walked passed this place after lunch and decided to give it a try because we are always searching for a good Pineapple Bun as the ones at T&T are only so-so.
The Pineapple Bun here is only $1.35 but it is only 2/3rd the size of the ones sold at T&T. The bun is slightly better as it has more of a taste verse the one at T&T but it's not so much better that it's worth the drive or the bitter aftertaste being served by the unwelcoming and borderline rude lady at the counter.
After reading some of the other reviews on this place, appears I am not the only one who found the women to be distasteful. I seriously wonder if the owners read any of their reviews....won't be going back

The woman who works there is not personable at all, and is extremely rude.

The owner is extremely rude. Zero customer service. It's like you are in her way when you make a purchase. Their buns are good, but not good enough to be treated like garbage. It's been like this for ages. Will definitely not return. Much better places that appreciate your business.

The best Chinese bakery in town! Soft and fresh baos my kids love for snack or quick breakfast/lunch. Mango cake is SO good and perfect amount of sweetness for Asian palette (meaning not too sweet). Good pricing too.

Great buns

Went on the Chinatown chow down and this was the first stop. For 2 bucks you can get a tasty pastry.

Best coconut buns in the city for the best price. I've heard people mention the service is bad, but I honestly never noticed. I go there for decent prices, not for the staff to praise me for my business.

We call everytime to order a cake, but every single time the lady that picks up the phone is rude and zero customer service! Her tone just speaks that “ I don’t care “. Even when we walk in the shop, no hello, no thank you !

You go there for the buns/bakery stuff (fresh no left overs) NOT the service or anything else. It is VERY good and descent prices, infact best in the city. 100000000 x's better than T&T.
Freshly baked buns! So delicious ! My kids favorite!

Yummy baking and very clean. If you don’t see what you want you can order for the next day pick-up. I have many favourites.

I love their taro pineapple buns & curry buns! Bread is so soft and the filling inside is yummy too! The taro bun is not sweet at all which suits my preference. The curry bun flavour is strong & umami (similar to japanese curry) but not heavy at all :)

I ordered a large cake to serve 80 people. The cake was beautifully executed and the taro flavor was delicious. Thanks Ruby!
