One of the real perks of staying at Hotel Benito in Hong Kong was having a Hoixe Cake Shop nearby. Google it, however, and you won't find a listing of the cake shop along Cameron Road but there is one and we were patrons the whole week we were in Hong Kong. Their bread (pork floss bread and shrimp sandwich) was both breakfast, snack and packed lunch (for Ocean Park and Disneyland days). It's like Bread Talk but also reminiscent of Carlo's Bakery/Cake Boss for me.
a lot of the breads were self-service fare and it's pretty crowded all the time here
by Hong Kong standards, bread sold here are generally affordable
as you can see, there are many Hoixe branches in Hong Kong
and the cakes are really not bad (they have a lot of desserts with fruits on it that were very pleasing to the eyes, but I really don't like fruit on my bread and we didn't really have a down time to warrant sharing a whole cake in)
I swear by Hoixe Cake Shop's pork floss... Bread Talk's pales in comparison.
