Sweet Meets Savory at Rose Ave Bakery

Want to satisfy a sweet tooth? The best place to do that is Rose Ave Bakery, an Asian bakery located inside The Block Food Hall DC. Open since about a week before the pandemic, this local bakeshop has had a bit of a rocky road, to say the least. But they’re still going strong now and it’s time to support them by indulging in all the incredible sweet and savory baked goods they whip up Wednesday through Saturday. Their hours are pretty limited, so make sure when you do go, you stock up for the week.

For something sweet, their doughnuts are a great go-to. They have unique flavors like pandan, ube coconut, matcha white chocolate, and black sesame. You’ll also want to stock up on a dozen cookies because you can’t just stop at one Saigon cinnamon banana or coffee cardamom. If you prefer savory fare, try the scallion egg sandwich or spam musubi croissant. Really, whatever you try will be delicious. Indulge and enjoy every bite, guilt-free.
