Matt Dicker: Chocolate and passionfruit is one of life’s most underrated flavor combinations, and the Passionfruit Chocolate Hazelnut Caramel Tart at Lost Larson is proof of that. Absolutely outstanding.
Phoenix Jimenez: Try the Kale and Cheddar scone
Zoe: You can’t go wrong with their fresh breads & scones. Stick with the plain croissant or almond croissant. The chocolate lacks the melty chocolate center we ALL love.

Amy Graff: The only place in Chicago (I've found) to get Hong Kong milk tea & yuanyang! Pastries are incredible & creative - love the char siu pineapple bun, miso brownie & egg tart. Cute space, great service.
Neal U.: Fancy Chinese and vaguely Asian-y pastries that are amazingly delicious.
Robert Bratney: The char siu pineapple pork bun is one of the best things I've eaten this year, and the Pasteis de Nata were a taste of Portugal. We will be coming back regularly!

Rebecca: Great Local shop, friendly service and old-fashioned treats like grandma use to make :-) Don't miss out on the best chocolate chip cookies or chocolate dipped marshmallows. Sugar Coma Beware!
Angie K: try the red velvet cupcake. it's heavenly.
Time Out Chicago: They had us at hello, those dreamy, creamy cupcakes. This bakeshop may have cornered the market with simple little cakes slathered in a colorful array of buttercreams but there’s more to salivate.
