Salazar Bakery — Restaurant in Manila

One of the most well-known and recommended bakeries in Binondo. Just a couple of steps away from the "Welcome to Manila China Town" signage. They offer a variety of freshly baked goods such as bread, cakes, hopia (which has a lot of flavors to choose from), and many more!

You cannot help but be amazed and crave what the bakery has to offer. Their products are affordable from PHP 25.00 and above. Expect long queues on both regular days and holidays.

Good thing that we went here early in the morning on a weekday but we have seen how people come to fill up the place and go with their purchases.

We bought a lot of products during our visit. My grandfather is fond of hopia which is why he bought a lot, while I grabbed some cake slices (chiffon and marble cakes are the best!), some pies and rolls (you should try their pork and pickles roll, I swear!). We also bought tikoy and butchi that tasted good as well.

Don't forget to add this to your itinerary if you are planning to...

Almond Jelly (P42.00) Rating: 9/10 I love gelatin and it tasted like one, sooo.

Ube Loaf Bread (P45.00) Rating: 8/10 Basically a stretched out monay with looots of ube! I really hope they can spread the fillings more evenly especially the heel of the bread which didn't have any. It's a crowd favorite even though it's a bit on the dry side.

Egg Pie (P195.00) Rating: 8/10 Definitely not the best one out there. Custard was dense. It's neither creamy nor smooth yet quite addicting, to be fair. Or I like egg pies that much? Everyone else barely finished their slice.

I prefer the pudding-like texture of Goldilock's but this will suffice when you need a quick fix of your egg pie cravings for a fraction of the price.

Service: 9.5/10 Long line on a Tuesday afternoon but the cashier was agile, we're done in no time. Only issue was they didn't have enough stock of the asado roll.

Ambience: 9/10 Spacious and clean bakery with plenty of items to...

I don't know what is going on here. But everyone seems to want to buy bread, cookies and pastry here. The store was absolutely full of people. And to be honest some of the things we bought was really good. I never seen a bigger collection in a bakery, the store was basically full of things. It's located in Manilas Chinatown in the Binondo area. I recommend you to have a look and buy something. By the way, they baked the stuff in the background behind the cashier, so all was very fresh. #pastries #binondo #manila...
