"Yeh’s Bakery has been around in Flushing for a long time, and it's a birthday staple for many Asian Americans who grew up in the neighborhood. Though this Taiwanese bakery is best known for its Boston pie (picture a lighter, fluffier, spongier Boston creme), they also make airy, lightly sweetened pastries and cakes topped with fresh fruit. There's no seating, but it's near the Queens Botanical Gardens, so it's a good place to stock up on some ultra-flaky cookies and mooncakes before a picnic. photo credit: Kenny Yang" - Carina Finn
