Mooncake Festival - September 29, 2003

Traditionally consumed during the Mid-Autumn Festival in China, mooncakes are a type of Chinese pastry item. While moonwatching is allegedly related to the event and mooncakes are considered a delicacy, the festival is mostly about the harvest. While commemorating the holiday, mooncakes are shared among friends or at family get-togethers. As one of the four most significant Chinese festivals, the Mid-Autumn Festival is well-known.

For me Chinese Bakeries are always a nostalgic thing filled with joy and comfort. Like other Chinese kids I grew up visiting these bakeries and ordering things from buns to cookies and cakes! I remember when it was my birthday I would get a cake and it was always in a purple and pink box with a big red ribbon tying it altogether! I hope this design reminds others of those same nostalgic memories!

It’s similar to the other bakery tote design where you can pin your “treats” onto the backside tray.

a little treat

Wednesday, January 24th, 2024. Spent the last 5 days in bed in pain due to fibromyalgia flare ups and a broken elevator. Decided to treat myself to some tasty Chinese bakery goodies for lunch as a little treat to boost my mood a little. I got a little slice of mango cake, a classic egg tart and this stunning little passionfruit blueberry dessert. The red caught my eye and I decided to try something new. You can see I’m still glued to my heating pad as the cord and control panel is pictured in the second photo in the right. I don’t think my building has heat anymore? Every single time I touch my radiator heater, it feels cold to the touch. This is a common theme with my building. Management loves to save money by turning off the heat during the coldest part of the winter, or simply never turning on the heat in the fall and just letting tenants freeze. So that’s part of why I’m spending so much time glued to my heating pad, laying in bed under a mountain of blankets. My room is fucking freezing all the time! I think I need to get a heated blanket instead of waiting for management to start caring about basic tenants rights or develop a sense of empathy!

Supita Tart Specialists, 2008 Sawtelle Blvd, Los Angeles (Sawtelle), CA 90025

Supita Tart Specialists is the sister shop to Simply Splendid Bakery in Alhambra. I like Simply Splendid a lot. Supita looks more stylish but is very similar: Hong Kong style bakery with cake slices, baked buns, bread, egg tarts, cookie tarts, etc. Baked buns are individually wrapped.  They do have a wide variety of buns, including hot dog, custard, coconut, red bean, black sesame, egg & spam, taro, onion, corn & ham, etc. The bun signs listed the ingredients but not the price.

The Alhambra location serves warm egg tarts. The Sawtelle one does not.

Hong Kong egg tart: flakier with a thicker, drier crust, smoothy and slightly eggy

Portuguese egg tart ($1.99): The crust was thin, buttery, and crisp. The custard was eggy, creamy, and sweet. Their tarts are good but I’ve had better.

Cheese mochi: sold in a pack of five, similar to Brazilian cheese bread. Soft, airy, chewy, and a bit salty from the cheese (but there isn’t a strong cheese flavor).

Red bean mochi bun: the bun was tender and soft. The ample chunky red bean paste wasn’t too sweet. The mochi inside was soft, sweet, and chewy. Really good.

Parking is a lot tougher in the Sawtelle neighborhood than Alhambra. The buy five, get one free offer only applies to the tarts and char siu pastries.
