Kee Wah Bakery - Monterey Park

Standing Chinese Buns... Sometimes you can crawl a bit, but here is where I buy for my rolls :

Must try pastries are so delicious and fresh and they have a great variety to choose. You have a menu at the checkout where you can show if you are not sure how to order. The lady was nice and helpful when we ordered our egg cakes and curry halls. They are expensive, but it is worth it for special occasions! Known place to order food if you want to impress guests. I love the box where it comes. It's a bit cramped, it's a way in and out.

Service: Not too bad. When I arrived, my questions were answered. Food: meh!!! This was my favorite place to get Ei tarts at least 10 years ago. My Fav place to get eggcake hasn't done it anymore, so I came here. I bought half a dozen and I shouldn't have bought one. The taste super artificial. The crust was not flaking, but tasted stiles and you can say they used yellow chemical color to make the egg tar look like they use real eggs. $2 per eggcake. It won't be back.

The bolo yao is a must order. It is a roasted pineapple bunker with a thick butter plate in it. The butter melts slightly from the warmth of the bread and it is the perfect snack. There are three types of egg tars. I have the Portuguese tart and it was a bit on the sweet side, but really delicious

Kee Wah was 1 of my favorite brands from childhood and imagined how happy I was when this site opened in 1985. I enjoyed her moon cake, egg tarts, Bolo bao and then her milk tea and lemon tea. Although there is a Kee Wah Bakery in Cupertino, I don't often go there because it doesn't feel the same. The girlfriend assures me that the food tastes the same and she's right, but she's inexperiencedly wrong. I know the ladies. I know the layout. When I come here, it feels right and I come every time I'm in the SGV. These last 2 trips home I hired 2 friends in Kee Wah, MP. I brought them here after an afternoon to make tourist stuff in J-town and DTLA. We had milk tea and Bolo yau; and of course they loved it. They are native San Franciscans and were never in Kee Wah and did not know about the rich history of the brand. I told them to come to LA more often with me and they will love Kee Wah MP.
