H&L Bakery

Stumbled upon this bakery while working in the area. Usually I avoid one review newbie places if there are other options but there was so much gross slush on the ground, I just went to the closest bakery.
I walk in and ordered spare ribs noodles, dumplings and a hot yinyang (coffee + tea) with a little sugar. Then… I realized I don’t have my wallet on me. Super flustered and embarrassed. At this point she had started to make my drink so I’m like ahhh, I don’t want to be that guy who orders and leaves. I told the lady that I forgot my wallet and I gotta come back for the drink. Super gracious (and quite insistently), the owner told me it’s okay and I can come back and pay her whenever. I’m like: Nooo. I can’t do that. This is so embarrassing, I’m sorry. The woman wouldn’t take no for an answer, tallied up and told me I owe her $ 5.70 next time and gave me my food. Hungry with my wounded pride, I gratefully accepted.
The dumplings are okay and not very greasy. Drink was standard and the right sweetness (some places pretty much ignore customizations). I was most impressed with the noodles! It’s actually the right texture and yummy. My only compliant is that the spare ribs are very bony.
Someone came in to order bubble tea but they told her that they ran out of bubbles. The owner said they made it in small batches to ensure freshness and they just ran out. This is def a good sign.
Thanks H&L! You guys are awesome, I’ll be back tomorrow!

Great low priced snacks and drinks!
Place is right outside of the train station D train, very convenient. Try to get the warm buns!
