Hungry Girl’s Guide: New Town Bakery

One of the best things about being at The Network Hub is if I am in the mood for fine dining, I head west about 5 blocks, but if I feel like casual affordable food, I head east about 5 blocks. On this particular day, I was craving for greasy comfort food – the kind that makes you feel like you are wrapped in a warm blanket of childhood memories.

I headed east toward Chinatown to New Town Bakery – it is a Chinese/Filipino restaurant that serves one of my favourite desserts Halo Halo. As soon you walk in, you know they are not trying to sell you ambience or their designer decor. It is no-frills, eat heartily and walk out of there – oh yes, cash only please. The waitresses are nice, friendly and helpful but don’t be mistaken, they aren’t interested in chit chatting with you about the weather. Oh yeah, they have award-wining Steamed Pork Buns, ask for it when you are there, and get extra sauce on the side!

If you are looking for value, comfort food then head to New Town Bakery.
