Anh Chi Em Bakery

My picture with the owner didn't come out. She was so sweet!My daughter in-law bought one of everything. It was all so delicious!They have a turmeric tea drink that's amazing! It does have a kick to it so be prepared but it so good!

Pastries with a Vietnamese twist? Actual Vietnamese pastries I had when I was a kid? TOTAL WIN. I was pleasantly surprised with the stuffed savory pastry with the curry in it. It was still crunchy and delicious a few hours later. Vietnamese coffee cinnamon roll? Say no more, I'll gladly gobble it up.Keep an eye out on their social media to find out where they are! They're at Fishcake on Saturdays from 10am-2pm. Parking can be a challenge but it's worth it! I love the family who baked this and allows us to purchase these goodies. Makes my heart warm and fulfills that Vietnamese craving I get. Support local and show your love!

Outstanding!First, rather than listing the Vietnamese names of each, let's stick to the lay terms to minimize the time between ordering and eating.Puff pastries are a must. The homemade pastry is extremely buttery and flaky but unlike their European counterpart, the pastry will quickly melt in your mouth versus having a crisp chewy texture. It works perfectly with the fillings.--Pate - No liver, rather pork puree blended with mushrooms, root veg and herbs. Smooth and moist.--Curry - Vegetarian. Gentle heat. Bold flavor that blends well with the buttery crust.--Apple - A turnover on steroids that pairs perfectly with a strong cup of Vietnamese coffee.Very good Spring roll loaded with veggies and glass noodles. Devour these right away while they are still warm and crisp.Finally a not too sweet, chewier than mochi, beautifully scented pandan flavored steamed mung bean treat. An almost refreshing finish to all the rich baked and fried goods.Service is extremely friendly helpful. Don't be surprised to have mama herself wanting to take a selfie with you.Located in the Fishcake incubator parking lot. Plenty of metered street parking a couple of blocks west in Kakaako. Worth all the effort getting through traffic, detouring around closed roads, driving over steel plates as a result of all the construction in the area.

Mahalo Li Y. for your First To Tip and alerting us to this pop up. We arrived at 10 a.m. and there was already a line! They were so busy with customers that they didn't even have their tent assembled yet.Thankfully they had plenty of baked goodies for sale. The only item we didn't see, was the layered pandan mochi. Our haul included two full boxes of delicious pastry and a container of colorful steamed coconut mini cakes. All the ladies were super sweet and the Owner's mother wanted to take pictures with customers before leaving the line.The pate puffed pastry was tasty and super flakey. The two flavors of honeycomb cake was also a nice treat. My favorite was the vegetable curry puffed pastry. The sesame donut will pair well with a bowl of warm rice soup!!This was quite a treat! Will gladly return to try other baked goods next time.

Discovered Anh Chi Em Bakery pop-up on IG recently and had to go check them out. Look for them outside of @Fishcake in Kakaako.They have the friendliest team working. I can tell a lot of love was put into the pastries and baked goods. Find them on Saturdays from 10am until 2pm outside of Fishcake Hawaii.As I was born in Vietnam, though grew up here. Many of these treats remind me of my childhood and snacks my parents would bring home for me. The nostalgia brings me joy and I enjoyed these sweet and savory treats. My first bites were their Chả Giò Chay (veggie spring rolls). Sorry, no pictures as I inhaled them in the car. Flavorful and satisfying, even though there was no meat.Their Pâté Sô was crispy, flaky, and buttery with layers of homemade puff pastry. Filling is made from pork and vegetables. Shitake mushrooms and onions. The traditional ones come with a pork and pate mix. I don't believe there was pate in these ones. Also had a Bánh Tiêu - fried hollow sesame donut, they are a little sweet and little savory. Try these with jook. They make a great pairing.Finished with a Banh Do Lợn - mung bean pandan layered mochi. Gotta appreciate anything layered as it is more labor intensive. For those not familiar with pandan. It is very prevalent in Southeast Asian cuisine, especially desserts. Think of it as their version of vanilla. Extracted from pandan leaves. Pandanus amaryllifolius is a tropical plant in the Pandanus genus, which is commonly known as pandan. It has fragrant leaves which are used widely for flavoring in the cuisines of Southeast Asia.They mentioned to look forward to Banh Bao (Vietnamese manapua) in the future. Those are my absolute favorite and hard to find. They contain a savory pork with vegetable filling, half a hard-boiled egg and lup cheong slices. Go check them out and go early before they sell out.IG: https://www.instagram.com/anhchiembakery/

I stumbled upon this place after I picked up my order from Eden in Love. It's a booth right outside of fishcake next to the Eden in Love building. There was small crowd of what seemed like regulars. The mother of the baker drew me in when I was walking by. She spoke with such pride about how her daughter made everything and explained each item. They had a variety of Vietnamese bakery and fried items with some vegetarian options. I decided to get a vegetarian curry pastry, pate pastry, sesame donut, and a veggie spring roll. The mother of the baker was SO CUTE and explained how the sesame donut was her favorite; she even rang a bell to celebrate the fact that I bought one! ALL items I bought were so delicious.The service, the taste, the quality of items, and the hospitality of the baker's mother is the reason why I'll be returning to try other items! If you're in the area on a Saturday during 11-2, I highly recommend stopping by!

Amazing pastries made by the best people. I love everything I have ever tried from here. Their pate so and ca ri puff are so rich and buttery. The furikake focaccia is so light yet flavorful. Their ca phe cinnamon rolls are extraordinary!! Their ban tieu- simply amazing. I go every chance I get and still have pastries I haven't tried yet! Love their rotating collection and all pastries are considered my favorite :) I usually like to buy a box and share a couple with my friends who also simply adore them!!! If you are looking for a nice outing on the weekend mornings, stop by and get the best pastries made by the sweetest family! Their schedule is up on their instagram @anhchiembakery . Cash and Venmo is the preferred payment I believe
