Bakeries in Vancouver, British Columbia
Thanks to my friend’s kind delivery, I FINALLY got to try the fancy donuts from Cartems Donuterie. In the half dozen box were the infamous Earl Grey donuts, along with Mexican mole, Triple choclate threat, and the daily special: coconut cream.
My coworker introduced me to Tung Hing a while ago when she was craving Banh Mi. Lucky for me she went during lunch, and grabbed some Vietnamese sandwiches and gave one to me. She’s raved about this place before, and is her favourite.
I was first introduced to Thierry Patisserie by a friend. She was telling me that this french pastry shop has amazing macaron and how they have real fruit inside some of the fruit flavoured macarons such as blackberry and raspberry.
I first saw 7 Sweet Sins when I went to a Canucks game last year, and finally tried it out this week. They have lots of desserts in their display case, and they have ice cream served on the other half of the counter. Many of the desserts look good and they had a wide variety from tarts, cheesecakes, regular cakes, mousses, and many more.
I’ve had quite an afternoon tea weekend, one home made with friends and one at Faubourg in Kerrisdale.
Faubourg bakery is super busy on weekends. When we tried to make a reservation for high tea, we were instructed to leave a voicemail to make the reservation. We didn’t get any phone calls back, but we went anyway. We ended up waiting for an hour and a half for a table for high tea.
For my very first ever high tea experience, I went to Adonia Tea House in Kerrisdale with 3 friends. None of us had ever been to high tea before, so we weren’t too sure what to expect besides tea and a tower of little sandwiches, pastries, and sweets. We were a bit weirded out by our first impression.
A couple weeks ago my friend brought me to Siegel’s Bagels for some bagel sandwiches and bagels to bring home.
Siegel’s Bagels sells authentic Montreal Style Bagels. There was an in house wood burning oven to baked the bagels, and there were more than 10 flavors of bagels to choose from.
Craving for a super giant cookie? You can find them at Butter Baked Goods.
My friend and I visited the bakery to for those monster cookie sandwiches. We knew we wanted their Chocolate Sandwiches (a.k.a homemade Oreo) and their Peanut Butter Sandwiches, and knowing us, how can we really walk away from a bakery with just cookie sandwiches. We also got a Pecan Bar, a Hello Dolly Bar, and a Coconut & Pineapple Scone.
I was in Yaletown looking for a quick bite for dinner, and I went to Boulangerie la Parisienne to get some sandwiches.
I first came across Bon Chaz at EAT! Vancouver. I had a sample of their original buns and I remembered it to be so yummy that I had to go visit their store.
I walked to Trees Organic for some dessert with my friends because our plan to watch a movie was a bust. I’ve never heard or been to this place. I was brought here by my friends as they refer it as ‘that cheesecake place on Richards street.
I’ve walked down Davie street numerous times but I’ve never noticed this little bakery called Boulangerie Cho Pain. I think I should be embarrassed, because this place seemed really popular with the locals.
