People are right when they say Hong Kong is very fast-paced and changes rapidly. I left town for a mere 2 weeks and came back and saw many new shops on Queen's Road, one of them being Pantry. I believe the Pantry in CWB has been around for some time and they are famous for their pastries and cookies. I got off early one day and thought I'd buy home a dessert to fix my sweet tooth so I went to the new branch in Wanchai.It's a bright and neat little bakery shop with all sorts of breads and cook
It's a bright and neat little bakery shop with all sorts of breads and cookies shelved on one side, all of which were welcome for sample tasting. The other side were the cakes and apparently they do lunch sets too. What really caught my eyes were the cute Lego block cakes ($54) which came in various colors. The blue blueberry cheesecake sounded most safe so I bought that one home. I took a first bite and thought...hmm, it's not the usual kinda cheesecake I had before, not the traditional style, and not even NY nor Japanese styles. I thought the cheese texture and taste resembled ricotta cheese, not that I'm saying ricotta cheese is bad, but it's not what I was expecting for when I bought this cheesecake home. Inside the cake, there was a layer of blueberry purée, cake and a crunch covered by the "cheese". The cake itself looked cute and creative, perfect for photoshooting purposes, but the flavor was not fantastic. Let's just say I didn't have my sweet tooth fix. Likely I will give this bakery a second try, but will definitely go for the safer option of chocolate cake or cookies.
