Chim Chim

I stopped by on their first day open and they were already buzzing. Their cake menu stands out from many spots in the city, with a real focus on thai flavors you don’t see often. The bakery is owned by a lovely couple, with the wife as the baker. The space is cozy and welcoming, and I was greeted with the warmest smiles as the husband proudly walking me through his wife’s creations. Always happy to support new, heartfelt spots like this :’) ＊Ube Salted Egg Yolk Pork Floss Burnt Cheesecake $12 * Inspired by their trip to Shanghai, this cake is a reimagination of 肉鬆小貝 (pork floss cake). The first bite hits with a generous layer of pork floss and their mayo-like “secret sauce”, followed by the rich salted egg yolk cheesecake. The ube cake on the bottom is subtle and gently sweet. ＊Thai Tea Cake $10 ** An easy crowd favorite. Every bite is full of thai tea flavor, from the silky custard on top to the light sponge cake and the buttercream layers in between. The cake is moist, airy, and not too sweet. ＊Butterfly Pea Coconut Jelly Cake $12 This was the most lightly sweetened cake of the three, and I really enjoyed the layers of texture—creamy coconut cream, soft chiffon, chewy coconut meat, jiggly butterfly pea jelly, and a crunchy pie crust at the base. ＊Es-Yen Thai Style Coffee $6.5 * ＊Bangkok Thai Iced Tea $7 My first time trying Es-Yen coffee (an iced espresso with condensed milk), and it was so rich and aromatic, but surprisingly not too sweet. I will totally get it again. In comparison, the thai iced tea definitely leans sweeter.

A small cozy establishment with limited seating. The cake selection they’ve got is VERY different. I’m not sure if I’ve had pork floss on a cheesecake before! Definitely something you should try once. Apparently the name of the restaurant means to come again and that’s what I intend to do so I can try everything else 😂 The couple that owns the place seems pretty sweet and wholesome as well. I walked in while they were filming a promo and their interactions with each other were so cute.

i got the nom yen and thai tea cake (the owner’s recommendation l!) and the nom yen was a very fun new drink to try, adjacent to strawberry milk, and the thai tea cake was very powerfully thai tea flavored and not too sweet! the people there were lovely and even offered us some cookies!! would definitely come back just for vibes alone

Tried the Sliced Taro Salted Egg Yolk Pork Floss Burnt Cheese and the Pandan White Chocolate Blondie. Both were beautifully layered and visually enticing, but the flavors felt muted. The taro, salted egg yolk, and pork floss didn’t quite announce themselves, and the pandan and white chocolate were similarly subtle.

This shop is so cozy and cute… I had the thai tea cake and it was so decadent and flavorful - I feel this shop is full of delicious and unique finds that are unique from other bakeries. I felt so comfortable here and the owner gave me and our friends some freebies !! Love this place and would totally go ahead if i’m in the area <3

I absolutely love the cakes at Chim Chim! Every cake I’ve tried has been delicious, but my favorites are the Thai Tea Cake and the Chim Chim Burnt Cheesecake. The Thai tea flavor is perfectly balanced—rich and fragrant without being too sweet. The Chim Chim Burnt Cheesecake is such a perfect and surprising combination of taro, salted egg yolk, and pork floss on top of a creamy burnt cheesecake—what a combination! The flavors come together beautifully. The Carrot Cake is also amazing and truly unique, with a slightly chewy texture that makes it unlike any carrot cake I’ve had before. Definitely a must-try if you love desserts! 🍰✨

If you’re looking for some unusually flavoured cakes, come try out this place. I had the Pandan Coconut cake and it was pretty good. My partner ordered the salted egg cheesecake with pork floss and it was …unusual… not my favourite. Seating is limited to 8 spots.

I have to say, I’m a huge bakery lover, and this place is absolutely my favorite. If you ever get a chance to try it, you’ll understand right away why quality really makes a difference in how good something tastes. I tried their cornflakes cookies, matcha brownies, pandan coconut cake, and many other items whose names I sadly can’t remember (sorry about that!). I also don’t have many photos because… I ate everything a little too fast 😅 Bekery items here are seriously unbelievable and truly delicious. Please go try them and let me know what you think!
