Wow, what a Hidden Gem! This place is actually inside New Grand Market and has been all the buzz lately so we decided to check it out. My girlfriend and I do this fun thing every weekend where we try out a cool new place we've heard about in the area and this one came highly recommended by a close personal friend of hers. In addition, this place is all over TikTok so you know I had to investigate.
This place is known for their fresh breads and pastries. So we decided to get a variety of several different items to test that out. Once you enter new Grand Market you'll go to the left all the way to the end where you will find this location in the food court. You'll then be greeted by the great staff there who are friendly and helpful in providing explanations of what things are and ringing you up. We decided to get several things such as macaroons. My girlfriend got the rose and vanilla ones which were light fluffy and fresh. They were some of the best we've had in recent time. We also heard about a strawberry croissant with cream inside so we got two of those. I got a raisin pastry and almond croissant cheese mini cake sweet potato flavor and one other item. They also have drinks as well which look interesting and tasty but we decided not to get any of those this time around.
The things I liked most about this place where the layout of the cases of items so that it can be easily seen with clear labeling. The friendly and helpful staff that greet you as soon as you come over and offer to assist with anything. Most importantly, the variety and freshness of the baked goods on display.
These were some of the freshest, spongiest, tastiest pastries and bread we've had in quite some time. We loved our visit here and can't wait to come back. We also have to mention that we came late in the evening and still received good quality items that did not feel old or like they had been sitting for a long time which is often the case when it comes to pastries most places only make them in the morning and you kind of play roulette when it comes to the freshness of the item you're getting. That's not the case here, while we did come late they still had plenty of fresh items available.
However, if you want to get the best variety of items at their freshest it's recommended to go early as this is when they make everything and before it's sold out because this place is now becoming widely known. I also imagine it's not the only time they make fresh items as I don't know the frequency of how often things are made I can just attest to the quality of the items that I got at the time of visit but I suspect they make fresh items a few times a day and things are on a timer so that they do not spoil or you get a bad item.

Read moreThis place is a hidden gem! Inside of the super market. Great coffee and fantastic pastries at advantageous prices! Highly recommend any sweet pastry that’s a croissant. 🥐 They have savory pastries as well!
They do cakes for events and have a lovely selections. Really close to the gym in the shopping center, great for a coffee after a workout.
I just have a tiny annoyance. They always ask if you have the app at the register. I’m sure they have a metric to hit for app penetration. If I went in every day the same person would ask me everyday like a robot. When they ask me now, I laugh a little every time. Like I said very minor.

Read moreOverall, it’s a really great cafe with decently priced baked items and drinks. There’s just this one employee who always messes up my drinks😔 whenever other employees make my drinks they make it good. But then I’ll get it again and this specific employee will put too much milk, which ends up canceling out the espresso or matcha flavor. When I first got the tiramisu drink a while ago, it was made really well. Then I got it again a few weeks ago and this employee put too much milk, barely any foam, and a whole bunch of cocoa powder. I just think we need to calm down on the amount...
