Great Taste Bakery

About

Great Taste Bakery & Restaurant is a Hong Kong-style bakery and restaurant in Boston’s Chinatown, and baking is a central part of the business. Cakes, breads and desserts are made in-house, with all bread baked the same day, fruit freshly picked and cakes kept refrigerated no more than 48 hours. Custom birthday cakes, wedding cakes and large cakes for office celebrations can be ordered, with flavors adjusted to each customer’s request.

The head baker, Chef Limin Chen, comes from Hong Kong and learned his trade under a professional baker from Guangzhou’s Baitiane Restaurant, and he has been in the United States for 12 years. He puts as much care into a cake’s appearance as its flavor. Owner Mr. Chen describes the goal as food that is both delicious and beautiful, and the dining room serves dim sum, congee, noodles, hot pots, seafood and wok dishes alongside the bakery.
