United Bread & Pastry

The best chicken empanadas!! Lightly sweet dough baked around savory shredded chicken.

Always went here as a kid. My family still occasionally buys food here from time to time. They used to be really good. Four stars because that potential, but I wish they can go back to how their quality was before.

Edit May 2022: 5-Stars again for now because we bought the turon (those bananas and a slice of jackfruit inside a candied egg roll wrapper) and they were freshly made.

I had never had Filipino desserts. These are so good! And the guy was super nice, giving us extra little things on the side to try. I love plantains and had never had them as a dessert. Definitely worth stopping here.

This place is such a hidden gem!!! I almost just walked by it and had to go inside to find out whether they were actually open.

But I’m SO glad I went in.

Their selection I’ll say, is pretty wide although the place appears small. Their pricing is reasonable and service was really good (they didn’t get annoyed with my endless questions!).

I got hopias (ube, mung bean, onion) and plantain lumpias.

Oh my God... the hopias were SO good and the lumpias, I don’t know how they do it but they sweetened the wrap itself and it’s sooo good altogether! The crispy and chewy, gooey wrap coverig the soft and delicious plantain(tasted more like banana to me) inside.

I’d like to try their empanadas next time!!
