Risen like a phoenix from the ashes of Ramir Bolanos DeCastro’s beloved Purple Potato it is as a Bakery that the former Yonaka Chef’s legacy continues to grow via Donuts, Cookies, Ube-based treats and Filipino Pastries.
Previously offered for delivery or takeout only, but now brick and mortar at 6370 W Flamingo Rd #20, it was Thursday that twenty items were procured for tasting, savories skipped in favor of recently-added Donuts, Brioche and Cookies.
Never actually gone from the local food scene, the rebranding of Yonaka and Purple Potato followed by a consulting gig at McCarran, Chef DeCastro’s current lineup continues with Croissant and Polvoron Bismarck Donuts, this day featuring a dozen varieties ranging from Thai Tea to Pistachio and several styles featuring Flan.
Also adding Churro & French Maple Layered Donut for Fall, complete with Whipped Cream, the Salted Yema Polvoron Donut remains indelible though fans of Coconut should still head straight for lavish Young Coconut Pie or the daily-special Donut when available.
Scaling back “Monster Cookies” to approximately 4” Ube features a crisp rim and molten center while additional specials such as the French Silk-style Salted Milo Pie and Ube Brulee Cinnamon Roll sell out early for good reason.
