7.6
A newer-style bakery-and-tea stop where the appeal is playful, not-too-sweet pastries that pair well with a drink order. Treat it like a targeted pickup: choose one tart, one savory-sweet bun, and keep the rest minimal so the textures stay distinct.

Matcha tiramisu tart, Coffee tiramisu tart, Meat floss cake

Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; limited availability near Queens Plaza and can be tough during peak hours.
Dress code: Casual—anything from athleisure to everyday streetwear fits right in.
Noise level: Low to moderate—fine for conversation but more of a quick-stop energy than a linger spot.
Weekend wait: No real dinner rush; brief line possible but usually under 10 minutes.
Weekday lunch: Typically no wait or a short line.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—most pastries and tarts are vegetarian.
Vegan options: Limited—may have one or two items depending on the day, but not guaranteed.
Gluten-free options: Very limited—no dedicated gluten-free program.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Better as a casual daytime meet or quick dessert stop than a full date—short, sweet, and low-pressure.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—there’s minimal seating and no reservations; most people order to go.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes for quick treats—kids tend to like the tarts and buns, but there’s limited space to sit.
Best For
Better for: Light, not-too-sweet pastries paired with tea—especially if you want variety without sugar overload.
Skip if: You’re looking for a full café hang, extensive seating, or rich, ultra-decadent desserts.
