Bakery Ngoc Lan: A Hidden Gem for Creative Bao Buns in Houston

They sell adorable, cute bánh bao designs!! They have sweet and savory options to choose from too. If you are planning to order a large amount, I recommend calling/walking in first thing in the morning to allow the staff time to make your order (they were able to complete it by the afternoon for us).

Love the cute interior, and super friendly helpful staff and their bánh bao is super cute! We tried some plain and stuffed ones, both were soft and delicious. We’ll be back to try their other flavors.

This place is so cute! The buns were so adorable I didn’t want to ruin them by eating it. I had the tofu banh bao and the only negative I had was that I wanted a less sweet dough for the savory ones. Their Viet iced coffee tasted unique, and I wish I asked which brand they use. On the topic of wishes, I wish they sold merchandise! The illustrations/logo would be great as a sticker or an insulated coffee cup. Seating is pretty limited/cramped inside but there’s outdoor seating if you can withstand the heat. Overall it’s worth it to drop by if you’re in the area.

Good place to have bánh bao in the Southwest Houston area. They have various types of bánh bao that no other stores have. The location is a little bit hard to find though. I will definitely come back for more.

This place is a hidden gem for sure. Delicious bao complete in an adorable package. They have both sweet and savory options. Highly recommend the pig bao, it's bbq pork and cheese and so so good. The hello kitty bao is mung bean custard and it was also good, it's more of a subtle sweet and not overly sweet which is my preference. Definitely will be coming back

I recently visited this bakery because I seen videos on Instagram that they offer an array of cute and fun-shaped banh bao. While I was initially expecting the banh bao to be warm, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that they are stored in a fridge. The unique twist is that you can select your banh bao from the fridge, and they are steamed on the spot to warm them up before enjoying. This ensures that you can indulge in your treats right away. The prices are reasonable, adding to the overall appeal. The combination of creative shapes, convenient warming process, and fair pricing make this bakery a delightful destination for those looking to satisfy their sweet cravings for banh bao that is a bit difficult to find variety in Houston!

A brilliant fusion spot! Incredibly fresh, delicate dim sum meets inventive Vietnamese-flavored mochi Traditional pastries are also perfect. Unique, delicious, and passionately made. A must-visit bakery!

Good ideas to make some of Việt Cake dessert to introduce everyone to another country to try it. Very cuties, sweet and delicious. If you don't like sweet, they still have another choice for you . Love it
