A bit of an up and down experience at the Butterfly Bakery during our recent trip to Toronto and the Spadina St Chinatown area. Nice overall selection of baked goods and a small case of steamed dumplings and buns to choose from. The sesame ball we ate fresh was pretty fantastic but they didn't hold up over time at all unlike others we have had. The other reviewer that mentioned the shrimp and chive dumplings was spot on. Great price and one of the better dumplings I've had the pleasure of eating. Really simple but very well executed with a whole shrimp and fresh chives inside the perfectly tender wrapper.
The remainder of what we had (red bean pineapple bun, red bead mochi bun) were middling at best. Not a bad showing overall but the star was definitely the shrimp/chive dumplings.....you have to go try these when you're sampling the food of the area!
