All the staff we very nice & very friendly. They all seemed very genuine in making sure we were not just satisfied but also happy. I grew up in Chinatown & went to school less than a half mile away so Im very familiar with the shops & business culture there. It can take a while for Westerners to get used to the retail style in a lot of Chinatown shops. On the contrary, Kim Hung Bakery treated us better than most the places we go to in South Pasadena. The products were also very traditionally good! If your in Chinatown, stop in for a snack & to say "hi".

I love their moon cake. They taste and look like what I remember from when I grew up. Those are real moon cakes.Unfortunately, I'm not living in LA area. I wish they do mail order.

Road trip checking out bakeries in China town. This place was my top favourite!! Very authentic Chinese bakery with quality ingredients. Very large portions with reasonable prices. “Wife Cake” was very unique not like typical bakery recipes - wintermelon, variety of seeds for complexed taste and texture. Peanut candies are very crunchy, fresh, not too sweet. Easy to find street parking.

Delicious lemon cake! We got a good sized piece for only $3. The cake was so fluffy and moist! It had just the right amount of sweetness and perfect tart lemon flavor. We thought we'd have a few bites and save some for later but we couldn't stop eating it - wish we got the strawberry to try too! Definitely stop by if you're in Chinatown and looking for a sweet snack!

Ahead of the Mid-Autmn Festival (Moon Festival, Mooncake Festival, Autumn Solstice, Chuseok, Tsukimi, Tet Trung Thu, and I'm sure it goes by other names in other cultures), this place makes the best Mooncake I have ever had. If in SoCal, make the effort, try this place, it is truly one of a kind.The two I chose for this year is the “00” which I am told has two eggs and is delicious. And the other “12” is one of my all time favorites with Mung bean and Durian paste. My mom and I also really like the Banh In Dau Xanh a kind of white pastry with white mung bean filling.We were fortunate enough that this bakery has a vendor right outside our favorite noodle house in Santa Ana (Trieu Chau). Have a safe and happy moon festival everyone!

Ive tried a lot of moon cakes in Chinatown and Alhambra, Kim Hung is my favorite by far! Fresh, never dry, worth every penny. Try the white mochi moon cake for something special.
Moon cake was big and delicious. Pretty sweet with lots of fillings. Also enjoyed the sponge cake with a creamy custard. Butter cookie was a bit dry. Will be back to try more pastries.

Their peanut cookie was highly addictive. The seller mentioned it was a traditional family recipe and takes 20 commutative hours to make. Highly recommend!
