I come to this plaza quite often because of Fat Bao and Luna's Pizza. I've passed by Oui Desserts a few times but never had the chance to try them until yesterday.
Came here last night around 8:45pm because I was craving desert. The store was pretty empty, guessing since they were about to close soon. Very cute little shop, a few chairs and tables for customers to sit and enjoy their deserts. It took me quite some time to pick because I was indecisive, they had quite a few selections. I ended up picking the Fruit Tart $5.50 and the Red Velvet Cake $5.00 and took it Togo.
Tried the red velvet cake first, the cake was more on the dry side, but if you eat it with the cream filling, it wasn't so bad. The only thing I didn't like was that there wasn't enough filling between the two slices of cake.
The fruit tart was great! I really enjoyed it! The filling had a cream brûlée texture and you can see little black dots (guessing from vanilla?). It wasn't overly sweet, and the fruits were pretty fresh I'd say.
Oui Desserts was something I just decided to try on the spur of the moment. I frequently use the Kirby area businesses, like Office Depot, Supercuts, Vision, and dining establishments such as Khyber Restaurant. I always passed by Oui Desserts as I never had the time to try them out. But this time I did! I entered and was greeted immediately. The interior was small and rather cozy, but could accommodate a half dozen shoppers and diners comfortably. Most seem to come to buy and leave, rather than buy and stay, but shoppers have a choice, so that's good. There was only one person there, presumably the business owner. She was friendly and prompt, and explained what deals they had as this was my first time there. I appreciated her courtesy and making me feel like a valued customer. It is a high end dessert/bake shop, and the prices reflected that, but they were reasonable for the quality goodies. I ended spending around $25 for a dozen coffee macaroons, 3 good sized pecan/chocolate cookies, and a double layer single serve German Chocolate Cake. Now at home I remembered the reason I usually don't shop at bakeries too often! If the goodies are really good, I'll eat a bunch of them at once, then suffer later cutting back on other foods and doubling up on exercises to balance the excess calories. I ended up eating the German Chocolate cake and all three cookies, plus 3 coffee macaroons, in just 2 servings 12-16 hours apart. That was a lot of calories, but they were so delicious, I couldn't hold out for long! Well, Oui Desserts is now on my list of cool bake shops, and I'll have to work on willpower!
A little bit pricey, but a great service and great French patisseries.
