I was excited to pick up some Chinese pastries after craving them all these months. I read the reviews, and decided to drag my friends to Montreal's teeny Chinatown to let them try the beautiful buns themselves.
What a drag! I could've gone to the cocobun in guy concordia, because they carry the exact same products. I went to Harmonie on a sunday evening, when the bakery was sparse with leftover pastries. I decided to try something new. I bought a small preserved egg-filled pastry for $1.50. Call me a cheap for saying this, but for 1.50 it was totally not worth it. Overpriced for that little ball of average.
Where should I be getting a fresh, fluffy coconut bun not produced by some lousy pastry chain??
