Reviews Maxims Bakery

This is a pretty big bakery with a really large selection of Chinese/Asian-style baked goods. I've had the chance to sample their Chicken Pie, Pineapple Bun w/BBQ Pork, and Curry Beef Bun (details below). All of them were very good: fresh and tasty, and stuffed with a generous amount of filling. Although their prices are a tad bit higher for an Asian bakery, the quality I think is well worth it. I also really like the system that they have where you get to select your own goods (and place them on your tray) and they wrap them up for you at the country. Overall, I'd highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a good Chinese bakery.

Chicken Pie ($2.25):
4/5
The crust of the pie was quite tender and flaky, with a slight hint of sweetness. It was filled with a generous amount of flavourful, tender chunks of chicken, as well as a few carrots and peas.

Pineapple Bun w/BBQ Pork ($1.75):
3/5
The bun was really soft and fresh. It had a really generous amount of bbq pork. Personally, I wasn't a huge fan of the filling: it was a bit too savoury and I actually prefer my bbq pork to be a bit sweeter, but I think that there are a lot of other people who'd prefer this style of filling. I also wished that the topping would be a bit more crispy.

Curry Beef Bun ($1.45):
4/5
Again the bun was soft and fresh. There was a good amount of curry beef that was fragrant, mildly sweet, and flavourful.
