Almost tucked away in a corner of the market square, I love this place. Have cash on hand if you're just going to grab a couple of thing. Their pastries are pretty cheap. (^__^ ) Surprisingly, they have one of my top two apple turnovers in Austin, but that is not why I come here. Still, it's become a staple. I like to try whatever they have in the case at the counter, so long as it's vegetarian... I even enjoyed the beef empanada I tried accidentally thinking it was fish. Oh, well. It was still yummy. At this point, I've probably visited over thirty five bakeries in Austin. The style and flavor of this bakery's products--of which there are a nice variety--is distinct. Given that, and that I always find something new to try, I'll keep returning.

My new favorite bakery in Austin. It's a mom and pop shop. Just pick a random item on the shelf and it will amaze you. I got a fresh baked empanada and a coconut bread. Both were incredible

I love their coconut bread here so much. It is very soft. Literally had dreams about eating it again LOL they switched owners recently when I came. I was expecting a Vietnamese bakery place but now it's a Chinese Bakery. The new owners are so sweet. There is no seating inside, more like a grab and go. Bread is very fairly priced here too.

Came here the past couple of times when we come to MT supermarket. This is a cute little bakery in the corner of the shopping center. Definitely looks family owned and operator. I asked them how long they have been here the lady said "too long" lol Every time we come here we end up at the rack of buns with the salted egg yolk inside! Those things are delicious! Last time we wanted the red bean one but it was out and they said wait we will be right back. Went to the back and got us some and oh my goodness delicious. We tried every flavor and the taro, red bean, and durian are our favorites by far! all the other stuff is really really good too and honestly it's just run by a sweet older couple or at least I think it is since they are always there. Definitely love come here and will be here again. Support local and support this little gem :)

Looks like Texas Bakery has changed hands again because it's now a Chinese style bakery. Think 85C but mom 'n pop style. Came after lunch and there was an impressive selection of stocked pastries to choose from. Ranging from stuffed breads, sponge cakes, fried sesame mochi balls and Taiwanese mooncakes. It was impossible to try everything but my top picks so far are the green onion & pork floss roll and the mooncakes. I liked the bread's texture and rich savory flavor. The mooncakes had a thin and delicate pastry shell. Coupled with a generous amount of filling (Red bean, sesame, etc) that was smooth and had just the right amount of sweetness. For a freshly baked cake I was impressed.

I've watch this place went from eh - to new ownership - to secret menu - to expanded explicit menu. Came back today and I was relieved that covid nor winter storm have stopped their growth. If you haven't tried their banh mi, give it a whirl. It's discreetly off in the corner right next to MT Market. They now have clearer signs of the banh mi offering so you can't miss it anymore. Takeout only, each banh mi is $5.95 and is one out of two places that have Xiu Mai (meatball) The Dac Biet (Special) has a deep variety of deli meat. Cut thin but a big portion of. Viet ham, cheesehead (not really cheese just different varieties of pork cuts gelled together by its own fat), chinese bbq pork, proper liver pate and butter. Thit Nuong (Grilled Pork) is on the sweeter side with fatty chewy texture. Very flavorful. Bread is the airy with crispy outside and is pretty big. Definitely justify the $5.95. Banh Bao, Pate Chaud all the classic Viet bakery stuff.
