Les Chateaux Bakery 雅閣精美西餅麵包 

Location: 550 Hwy 7 E., Unit #95, Richmond Hill (inside Times Square, beside Richmond Court Restaurant)
Phone: (905) 709 9793
Hours: I think they are closed at 7.

I LOVE the egg tart at 雅閣! The best egg tart i had so far here in GTA =D

I always heard people saying Lucullus 龍島 has the best egg tart. I went Lucullus 龍島 last time, but their egg tart is NOT the best lor... disappointing..

Les Chateaux Bakery 雅閣 this place has the BEST EGG TART! =)

- i bought 5 egg tart 酥皮蛋撻 and 1 coconut tart 椰撻
- i think it's $5.50 for 6 egg tarts
- their milk tart 雙皮奶撻 is also THE BEST! =D
- i love how their egg part is full-full. =) I have seen egg tart from other places that has a big dip in the middle 凹哂落去!
- however i only like their egg tart, milk tart, coconut tart... the bread there are not so good..

Moon cake (happy mid-autumn festival!)

I totally forgot to post these moon cake on mid-autumn festival... sorry everyone, happy belated mid-autumn!
I made these moon cake for my relatives, my grandparents, my parents..
Took me a long time to make these moon cakes... I even made those moon cake boxes, then painted them in gold and put a golden cloth in it.
