I apologize for the lack of posts!  I’ve just been very busy, but I always have blogging on the back of my mind.   I will try to update whenever I can even though if the posts are short.

I am a big fan of bakeries! When I’m in the East Village, I always make sure I stop by Cafe Zaiya for their sweet unique pastries and bubble tea.  The price is a little on the expensive side compared to a bakery in Chinatown, but it’s worth every penny.  I must admit that it isn’t the first time I’ve been to this cafe, but it’ll be my first post on it!

So I picked up a few pastries and I would like to share them with you.  Sometimes I don’t even know what I’m buying, but I know it has to be tasty because it looks it!  If you guys know the name of the following pastries, please let me know!
