This is a Chinese/Asian-style bakery in Kerrisdale that make a good selection of cakes, as well as buns and pastries. For my visit, I stuck to just their sweets, and got their Tiramisu, Michele Cheesecake, Chocolate Cake, and Portuguese Tart. Now, I’m generally not the biggest fan of Asian-style cakes, but I really enjoyed theirs; they are tasty and flavourful while still retaining the lighter, milder tastes associated with Asian-style desserts. The prices are a bit on the higher side for an Asian-style bakery, but I think it’s quite reasonable given the quality of their desserts. Whether you like Asian-style sweets or not, I highly recommend giving this place a try.Portugese Tart ($1.75):4/5This is similar to a regular egg tart, except that the top is bruleed/caramelized. The crust was a bit bland, but quite tender and flaky. I quite liked the egg custard, which was smooth, mildly sweet, and had a pleasant eggy fragrance. I actually prefer this over the ones from Marui as it is a bit more flavourful (without being overly sweet).Tiramisu ($3.99):4.5/5This consisted of layers of coffee sponge cake sandwiching coffee mousse. This is a fantastic rendition of the dessert. The cake was soft and light while the mousse was smooth and airy, with a wonderful bitter-sweet flavour. The cake also had a fantastic fragrance of coffee liquor.Michele Cheesecake ($3.50):4.5/5This consisted of a layer of fluffier, Asian-style cheesecake on top of another layer of denser, more Western-style cheesecake. The top layer was light and fluffy with a nice citrusy fragrance, while the bottom was richer, creamier, and had a wonderful tang. This is seriously the best of both worlds.Chocolate Cake ($2.75):3.5/5This was made up of layers of chocolate sponge cake and chocolate cream, and decorated with a small cream puff. Again, the cake was very fluffy and light. I personally found the chocolate/cocoa flavour to be a bit too weak. I also didn’t really care for the cream puff, which was bland and had a slightly oily texture, although it was quite a nice decoration.
Sometimes I miss the hk-styled bread very much. And I tried a lot of bakery in Vancouver.Michele is the only one I recommended.It can keep the hk-styled taste profile with Canadian good-quality ingredients (Bread items).I visited its store many years ago in Richmond (it was closed) and i kept it VIP card for many many years. I am happy to find its shop again which is near to my new home. Mrs Lius Choice:
