“Delicious soft donuts. Had them in Japan ?? and just loved them. When I saw them here I had to try them and they were absolutely amazing. Not many flavours to choose from but was happy with my purchase. I had orange chocolate flavour and strawberry flavour ?. Cute little shop with friendly staff. Thank you ?“
“We were at Mitsuwa and so happy that Minamoto Kitchen was here. Used to hit this place up regularly when I worked in lower Manhattan. My Daughter loves the exquisitely made jellies. Everything from here is a work of art and so damn delicious. She got the shaky to jelly which I believe is peach. Definitely returning here for more goodies. Sorry no pictures as she ate it before I could take a pic. Service is as always wonderful and every aspect of shopping here is an absolute pleasure. If you're in Edgewater you should stop in and try something different and delicious.“
“Lady Wong Pastry & Cakes offers a sweet escape! Clean seating though it’s tight. First-timers may need staff guidance due to extensive flavor choices. Seasonal flavors vary. Tried Baked Ube Rice Cake - tasty but tricky to cut. A delightful treat worth exploring.☺️“
“Everything is good here, and always fresh. They have a variety of donuts- both yeast and cake. Wonderful breakfast items, and I love their rolls and/or bagels with bacon, egg, and cheese( delicious). Coffee is bold and flavorful, and customer service is friendly and fast. Family owned business and a staple in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Stop by and try their goodies out for yourself. You won't be disappointed.“
“Best tasting wedding cake I have ever had! Flowers and cake topper are from other vendors. The cake was truly a sight to behold, all of it edible and delicious! The communication was not the smoothest but you really cannot beat the quality of the cake.“
“9.0/10 Finally tried New York-style bagels at Absolute Bagels and I can confidently say that these are absolutely the best bagels I've ever had. J. Kenji Lopez-Alt raves about this spot, so it was a must-visit during my stay from Orange County. My boyfriend and I got: Blueberry Cream Cheese on Egg Bagel $5.50 | Bacon & Eggs on Everything Bagel $6.95 Cheese +50¢ | Toasted +10¢ Each. Both were amazing, couldn't pick a favorite. I'm a bit ashamed to say that all the many times I've visited New York, this was my first time trying NY bagels from the place itself. Their bagels have a thin, shiny, crackly crust. When you bite into it, it's dense and chewy but tender and easy to bite through, the perfect texture. The Egg Bagel was amazing and Blueberry Cream Cheese was rich and fruity. The Everything Bagel was a flavor bomb with its malty base and generous toppings. The bacon, eggs and cheese inside complemented the bagel well. These might be some of the best eggs I've ever had, never seen something like this inside a bagel or sandwich before. They're possibly scrambled and then baked or steamed, which reminded me of Korean steamed eggs (gyeran-jjim). I learned that a quality bagel shouldn't need toasting; its freshness should ensure crispness and chewiness. Next time, I'll resist the urge to toast and enjoy them in their pure form. The bagels are huge, I saved half for the next day, while my boyfriend managed to devour his in one go. These are better than any bagel I've ever had in Socal, but maybe I haven't had that many. The only other bagel I had time to try was Bagel co in North Bergen, NJ and these were so much better. I wish I could find bagels like these in LA OC. Though I didn't spot any specific sustainability practices or see mention of them, I hope Absolute Bagels considers eco-friendly initiatives in the future. They're located on a main busy street in Manhattan Valley, Upper West Side. I took the train and walked a few blocks to get here. If you drive here, I'm not too sure about parking but looks like there's just paid metered street parking. The interior is casual, no-frills, small, no inside or outside seating, just a grab-and-go type of spot, a hole in the wall. Service efficient, albeit minimal. Being cash-only, there's a Chase Bank nearby for convenience. I came on a Saturday around 10:30 AM and was surprised by the short wait time, only 15 minutes. They open early for the breakfast crowd. Prices are reasonable, especially given the quality and big portions.“
“WelcomeThe best pancake restaurant in Manhattan?Pancakes are a thing of fantasy, frankly, but for me, I consider them No. 2 (No. 1 is Buttermilk restaurant in Riyadh). I give them 4.5/5.The chicken sandwich is very nice and I give it 5/5I consider the complete breakfast plate to be the least, honestly, and give it 3/5The restaurant suffers from crowding, and you will never see a wait of up to an hour and a halfBy the way, the restaurant opens from 7 to 4 p.m. to serve breakfast, then closes until the next dayAn experience worth doing“
“I got the Lemon Croffin and Colored Croissant, and the basic bread had an excellent texture - crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The Lemon Croffin was a perfect match, with the tangy lemon complementing the bread beautifully.It would be even better if they had indoor seating in addition to the patio. I'm looking forward to coming back when it's warmer outside. :)“
“I stumbled upon this delightful mom and pop bakery tucked away inside the supermarket, and it was truly a hidden gem. The quest to find it was worth every moment, as their fresh bread and pastries left a lasting .the quality of their baked goods exceeded my expectations. I'll definitely be a regular customer when I am in the area!“
