“When you walk in you sorta get the feeling of when you walk into Paris Baguette, just with less people.”
“I've had a couple of their sandwiches and cakes as well as their milk tea and I have to say it is quite different from regular Chinese bakeries like Fay Da and TaiPan.”
“They have traditional bakery treats like red velvet, strawberry shortcake, chocolate mousse.”

The pastries and breads at Mugi look good, but aren't great(texture and taste-wise). The baked goods here are slightly more expensive compared to other Chinese bakeries in the area. The only thing I occasionally get here is the multi-grain loaf of bread. What's funny is that while I was looking at the breads, I saw factory-processed pre-packaged bags of sliced pound cakes that are typically sold at delis. wtf? I thought this was a bakery that produces freshly baked goods.
Not your typical Chinese bakery….they aspire to make items with Asian flavors but with western quality and standards. Cakes are light but tasty here. My favorite is the beef hot dog bun…it's awesome!
Needed respite for from the heat so came here. It was very quiet.
The first thing I noticed on entrance were the cupcakes! first asian bakery I have seen to be carrying cupcakes
I wasnt in the mood for them so we got an egg custard thing that was too hard and not fresh at all.
I also got the passion fruit slush which was really good but the coconut one was just ice and water.
Bottom line- nothing special, will only coming for drinks and just maybe the cupcakes
Ordered the Japanese Cheesecake. It had a beautiful look. However, the cheese concentrate was too little… I think they should make the cheese concentrate a little bit stronger
I really needed coffee as the time zone difference was playing with my internal clock. I walked downstairs hoping to find a place nearby so I won't get lost, and I didn't want the usual corporate Starbux. Mugi's was conveniently down the block. The first thing I saw when I entered were fancy, colorful cupcakes and macaroons! They were indeed pleasing to the eye, but I was wanting a breakfast pastry. I turn around and there was a nice array of Chinese pastries, both sweet and savory. I decided on the pear (or was it peach) danish, and it was delish! I'm definitely a fan; everything was inexpensive – I had a pastry and iced coffee breakfast for less than $5!
Chinese bakery posing as Korean bakery. I ordered a yinyang (coffee + milk tea) and it's super watered down. It didn't come with a tea bag so it's going to stay gross and diluted. 🙁 Should've taken my $1.50 to Dunkin Donuts across the street. Don't even want to come back to see if the cakes are any good.
get the polo bun here! it's really good, probably one of the best in flushing. Everything else is just okay, I'd come back all the time just to get their polo buns! Service is great too, they're really nice here.
