Old House Bakery

Macau


This bakery in a quiet patio near the Ruins of St Paul is so good their all-natural sourdough and baguette vanish shortly after the shop opens. If you can't get a hold of these best-sellers, there are scrumptious quiches, fruity mousse cakes and rum-laced canelés (small French pastries). But even those go pretty quickly.
