Great vegan baked treats

We got two things each for breakfast along with a milky drink and it made for a good hearty start to the day. I got a chocolate chip crookie and an egg custard tart. My partner got the chocolate croissant and the peanut butter crookie. Everything but the croissant were warmed up in the oven for us before being served.

I really liked the egg custard tart. I've never really eaten eggs so this is something completely alien to me. I enjoyed the texture of the thick set custard and it had a good sweet flavour. The pastry kept a bit of crispness which is good considering the filling.

The chocolate chip crookie was great. The pastry of the croissant was good and crispy on the outside and nice and light and fluffy inside. There was some generous filling inside and on top that made for a tasty treat. The peanut butter crookie was similar. There was a layer of peanut butter and chocolate on top and good filling on the inside too.

The chocolate croissant felt a bit more like a bread than a pastry and wasn't as good as the others. Maybe it suffered from not being heated up. There was a good generous chocolate layer on the top but no filling.

Almost everything here was vegan, I think one thing was labelled as not being vegan. We asked for drinks with oat milk so I'm not sure if the default milk is dairy milk.

Amazing spot

I didn’t see anything not vegan. Maybe they offer cows milk? But it’s probably 90% vegan. My food was amazing and there were so many options. I have to come back.

Nice modern looking vegan bakery

I went there to try the egg tart— although I’ve never actually had a non-vegan egg tart so I can’t really compare, the crust was flaky and crisp.

Pros: Nice, modern and clean location

Good range of vegan pastries

Quite a range of vegan pastries, with other dishes suitable for having lunch or teatime. I tried the chocolate coated croissant. The outside was flaky, inside soft layers, tasted pretty good. HKD26 seemed reasonable to me.

Service could be better - tried to understand the main ingredient in the vegan egg tart and they just said a few times it’s vegan but weren’t able to elaborate on whether it’s soy / coconut / nut based.

Pros: Range of vegan pastries

Not great

I was really excited to try this place as I heard they had vegan versions of HK pastries that I grew up on. I had their milk tea egg tart and pineapple bun, but both were disappointing. The egg tart was a bit burnt, soggy and the texture was too firm and rubbery (maybe from being stale). The pineapple bun was like a dry and sweet bread bun with a bland crust.

Amazing food

All vegan bakery with Hong Kong classics. Unfortunately I can't give 5 stars because it's falsely listed as only vegetarian
