"Biting into a pillowy BBQ pork bun or egg tart (or really anything) from Chiu Quon can make you look like a heart-eyed smiley face emoji. The buns, cakes, and pastries from this cash-only Chinatown bakery are all fantastic, and they’re the main reason we frequently go spelunking in our couches looking for loose bills. Chiu Quon doesn’t have seats, but the counter by the window is the ideal place to dig into your haul. It also guarantees easy access if you need more baked goods or want to branch out into their dim sum menu. " - john ringor, veda kilaru, nick allen
