It calls itself a small bakery with a big heart (and appetite!) for unique Filipino sweets and tropical treats.
The first-ever Hood Famous Bakeshop brick-and-mortar and production kitchen will hold its grand opening at 2325 1/2 NW Market Street (entrance on Shilshole Avenue) on Oct. 8.
Owners Chera Amlag and Geo Quibuyen grew Hood Famous Bakeshop from the Filipino pop-up dinner series Food & Sh*t.
It has operated out of a commissary kitchen, providing wholesale cheesecakes for retail at grocery stores, such as Uwajimaya and Seafood City.
