Portuguese egg tarts, Cantonese egg tarts, buns, cakes






















"The main reason to visit this bakery in Parkside is the Macau-style egg custard tarts, which are similar to Portuguese custard tarts, or pasteis de nata—lightly scorched top, smooth and milky custard, and flaky crusts. True to its name, the shop also sells almost two dozen types of sweet and savory bread buns, including cinnamon raisin, coconut, pork floss, and tuna. The almond black bean bun is nutty and sweet and a must-order." - megan zhang, julia chen 1, patrick wong
"Squeeze your way into the line at Mr. Bread in Parkside whenever you want a pork bun that’s filled to the brim with cubed meat and has squishy bread that could fit right in with a toddler’s Jellycat collection. The takeout-focused bakery makes buns with caramelized edges that make the whole thing taste like a barbecue potato chip. Load up a box and take these to McCoppin Square nearby to eat in the grass." - julia chen 1, patrick wong

Mr. Bread prepares Cantonese-style egg custard tarts, too, so you can order both to taste the difference.
