The 9 Best Chinese Bakeries In San Francisco

"Note: Golden Gate Bakery is temporarily closed. There’s always a line at Golden Gate Bakery, but the egg custard tarts, with their flaky, buttery crusts and creamy yet jiggly fillings, are well worth the wait (it’s best to arrive just before they open, or the hour before they close). Their other pastry selections are also excellent—especially the mooncakes, which come in a variety of flavors including white lotus seed, winter melon, and mixed nuts with ham. Keep in mind that the hours at this Chinatown bakery can be unpredictable—it can sometimes close without notice for days or even weeks at a time. In an attempt to help confused egg tart lovers, a good Samaritan runs Is the GGB Open? on Twitter—though it's not always updated regularly either." - megan zhang, julia chen 1
