This isn't your typical Vietnamese-style bakery selling vanilla jelly slices, but instead one that sells beautifully fresh, creamy slabs. At only $3.50 I felt ashamed that my last mouthful was so hard to stomach, but nevertheless it was unfair to through it away. The huge portion of creamy vanilla custard was so tasty in between the light and flaky layers of pastry. I managed to eat the whole thing with no cutlery and it proved to be quite a task. I would definitely recommend this place, to the point that their jam doughnuts actually contained "too much jam" according to Mrs B - if there is such a thing!

I expect the said baker has all the appropriate planning permits and has baked to a height code. It's huge ! And a 8.5 to boot. this will be programmed onto the monington peninsula tour de slice. Good intel old boy

I can now confirm Paris Hot bread shop and its humble vanilla slice is a winner. On its way to the slice hall of fame.
