| - I'd drop more stars if I was rating off of mood. Over time, this place has annoyed me more and more. As a Filipino who has frequented many Filipino bakeries through the course of my life...Las Vegas does not really have a solid oh shnap Filipino bakery. We have bakeries that will simple 'make do'. Bakeries that will simply seem like the best option because what option do we have?
Honestly, it really isnt all that great. Their biko/kalamay/puto/kutsinta whenever we purchase it ALWAYS has some weird taste to it that you know is not a taste you'd get had you cooked it yourself. I've even joked to my husband ugh, I can taste the embalming fluid in here. It is a joke, people. But if perservatives is what they add into their baked goods...my tastebuds are all over it. Which is why we never purchase those items from there anymore. I have a solid place for our fix for such desserts elsewhere.
The Spanish bread kills me. I rarely buy it...but when I do...it's because my kids want it. I've had AMAZING Spanish bread from Hawaii so my expectations are high. Living here, I make-do. BUT! Purchasing something a few times over enough to realize that the filling is all the way to the side of the bread and really you're just paying for bread...is just the way of life here? No, I'm done. (See pictures). Also, we've experienced more dry breads than most times. The only bread that hasnt disappointed is their ube bread. Kids love it and its graciously stuffed. Note, this Spanish bread is Filipino version. Not to get it confused with actual Spanish bread elsewhere.
And the service? Sometimes you get it friendly and sometimes the cashier looks at you with judgment. I dont appreciate that feeling. You'd think as a Filipino with all our fellow judgey Filipinos we would get used to it? We don't. It pisses us off more because we are conscious of such attitude. I've seen better days, though, can't lie.
But 4 stars? Naw. Not anymore. I tried being positive but getting ripped off isn't fun anymore. Then try going in there on a busy day...you basically have to stand in line and grab as you move along because taking the time to browse and assess your life situation may become hectic since there isn't adequate space when busy.
And people...please do not bring your seafood city grocery cart in there and stand in what "corner" they have. There isn't much room for all that. Other than that, this place def gets business. Where else are you going to get your Filipino treats so conveniently especially after grocery shopping. Personally, I'm over it. However, def give it a try!
Strollers and shopping carts be advised.
Enjoy!
