| - Prologue:
A truly good Asian bakery is something we're unfortunately lacking pretty much everywhere in southern Arizona.
Our trips to Las Vegas always include a visit to Chinatown and we had heard very good things about this bakery so we madeĀ certain stop in.
The Plot:
We browsed around for several minutes and selected eight distinctly different items, each more delightful and delectable than the next.
The Scene:
We know we're in a good bakery when, after browsing for a few minutes, we've decided that we must have one of each item on display.
Such was the case for this shop and it required both determination and will power to narrow all the choices down to our final selections.
My girlfriend, who is a native of mainland China, commented about the sincerity that went into the preparation of these baked goods.
The buns, in particular, were soft and moist, not the slightest bit oily, with a very generous amount of red bean or custard filling.
The Rest of the Story:
Although this bakery might not necessarily considered to be devoutly traditional their products are most certainly authentic.
The variety, originality, and quality more than make up for the departure from tradition.
Epilogue:
This is a lovely shop for which it is worth making a special trip to Chinatown to visit.
