This juicy beef pie in Boston is killing me!

🥞 The Fika Spot: Waltham’s Surprise Gem—Curry Beef Pies & Authentic Jianbing Went in for a beef pie, left obsessed with two dishes. This spot serves up unexpected delights, from savory Chinese street food to classic pastries—perfect for a quick breakfast or snack. 🌟 The Standouts Curry Beef Pie: 🥟 A flavor explosion. The filling? Tender beef mixed with curry, sweetened by caramelized onions that cut through the spice. The crust is golden and crispy on the outside, soft and juicy inside (soak up that meaty broth—you won’t regret it). It’s warm, satisfying, and just messy enough to feel homemade. Jianbing (Chinese Crepe): 🫔 Northern friend approved. So good, we ordered a second one. The batter—made with mung bean flour—has that distinct nutty, earthy flavor (no bland white flour here). The owner says it’s a recipe from a Tianjin master, and it shows. The “you tiao” (fried cracker) is crispy but not hard, and the sauce (sweet, savory, with a hint of spice) ties it all together. The only quibble? Northerners might side-eye the lettuce, but the taste wins out. ☕️ More to Love Bakery: 🥐 Sourced from Danish Pastry House, these are classic, buttery pastries—think old-school hotel vibes. Flaky, rich, and perfect with a coffee or milk tea. Vibe: Reminiscent of Shanghai’s vintage cafes—cozy, unpretentious, and ideal for a quick bite. ✨ Perks Deals: Use the Hello Coupon app for 10-20% off—great for keeping this budget-friendly. Price: ~$15 per person. Cheap, cheerful, and filling. The Fika Spot is a happy surprise. Whether you’re craving jianbing, a curry beef pie, or a buttery pastry, it delivers—no frills, just flavor. 📍 The Fika Spot 619 Main St, Waltham, MA 02452 #WalthamEats #ChineseStreetFood #BreakfastFinds
