Phoenix Bakery is a bakery in Chinatown that sells Chinese-style desserts, cakes, and cookies. Its signature item is strawberry shortcake, and the cakes are not heavily sweet; winter melon pastries and almond pastries are also available. The bakery has operated in Los Angeles for 88 years, and much of the store's original design remains. Parking is difficult, so those arriving by car should look for a spot in advance.
