A famous cake store run by a Japanese patissier tucked away in DUMBO
Burrow
There is a cake store run by a Japanese patissier in DUMBO, a popular tourist spot in Brooklyn. Located on the first floor of an old building at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge, Burrow is a well-known store among those in the know, and the name "Burrow" means a small cave where foxes and rabbits live. With no signage, one might be tempted to walk past the shop due to its lack of presence, but once inside the building, one can see that the shop is constantly visited by customers, indicating that it is well-liked by the locals. The white interior has a solid impression of cleanliness with no unnecessary decoration, and the showcase next to the cash register is always stocked with freshly made cakes, cookies, and scones. The cookies are available in many varieties and are priced at a pleasant $5 for two. The Mont Blanc cake is a bit expensive at $8, but the crispy meringue base is well balanced with the melt-in-your-mouth cream, and the price is well worth it. The pastries are freshly made every morning, and strawberry shortcakes are available in whole cakes by advance reservation. Opening hours are limited to Tuesdays through Fridays from 10:00 to 14:00, so be sure to check back when you visit!
