Pinoy bakeshop (Joy Joy's Bakery)

I've had my eye on this spot since they first opened as I love Filipino pastries and baked goods and knowing I don't have to go all the way to Red Ribbon is nice. When we entered on a Thursday afternoon, we were welcomed by two different female employees. We looked around and they still had a good amount of stock left for their baked goods, hot foods, and other snacks. Inside is definitely dim and very quiet, no music or TV playing to give it any ambiance. The staff seem friendly but also didn't really offer the most welcoming or warm presence that you would typically find in a Filipino establishment. The prices here seem fair and affordable, which was great as we were looking for a snack to hold us over until we had lunch. We ordered a pork siopao, chicken siopao, and an order of their pork shumai. Unfortunately, I don't think the cashier heard my boyfriend as we only got the pork siopao but he was to tired to correct her. She did try to sell us on turon a few times but my boyfriend isn't a fan of turon (I don't know why this is but he is Filipino and just tells me that he isn't a fan of a lot of Filipino desserts).

We got in the car to eat our food. Our dogs were with us and were enticed by the smell as well, so that's a good sign as we complimented the smell too. I wish the food was kept just a bit hotter, but that's my minor gripe as I just don't like lukewarm foods. Now I will admit that the shumai is decent, but the sauce that comes with it is the star of the show. It has some spice while having this tangy umami kick that brought out the flavors of not only the shumai but also the siopao. My boyfriend and I were really impressed and tempted to go order more but we will definitely be back to get more of the hot foods and try some of the baked goods.

I came and wanted to try if I can use this as an alternative for Valerie’s in Seafood city ..
Most of their bake goods are not fresh , the atmosphere is not too attractive , too dark and it’s hot inside..
Since it is a self serve, why am I am I being asked to add tip ?
The outside appearance of the store is not attractive at all . I don’t mind driving a bit far to Valerio at least I know the bread are fresh

Came here to see if its an alternative to Valerios at seafoodcity inside southcenter mall. Ensaymada, hopia baboy and, some kind of cheese bread. They do sell leche flan siopao and other items but I personally still prefer Valerios even if i have to drive farther. Friendly cashier but nothing spectacular or impressive about their baked goods. Question i have is its not a sit down cafe bakery...i picked my item from a shelf/table then brought to the cashier counter and when paying its prompting me to tip, so what service am i tipping for? I did begrudgingly added a tip but in a custom amount that is less than 15% minimum tip being prompted.
