The brown, wooden-textured interior gives UPTOWN’S Pastry Shop a distinctively European ambiance popular with office workers and housewives alike. The aroma of freshly baked bread and pastry-themed window dressing never fail to tempt passers-by.
The founder of UPTOWN’S is Hong Quan-ping, a financial professional who received an MBA degree from Northwestern University, despite his long-time passion for culinary arts. As its English name suggests, the bakery is expected to deliver “natural, simple and tasty” baked goods.
In addition to an award-winning pineapple cake, the must-tries include the uniquely chewy San Francisco Sourdough Bread (long-fermented with natural yeast), strawberry and cream cheese cakes, basil country bread (infused with vegetables and spices), and healthy Yutane bread stuffed with azuki bean paste. Take a look through the show window of UPTOWN’S, a symbol of inexplicable happiness, and you will wish you could have every delicacy it makes.
