Zimo Bakery Cafe - Nowatney

Good food, friendly service, variety of selections pasty, recommended!

THE ABSOLUTE BEST BAKERY IN BRANDON!! No joke!!! Everything I've ever gotten was a 10 down to the hot food! I loveeee this place!

Zimo, what can I say? I absolutely love this place! My sister and I were craving some Boba tea and decided to try out a new spot and we are so happy that we did! The moment we walked in, I knew that we made the right decision. This well lit and cozy shop was all we needed for the cooler afternoon. The decor was tastefully done with modern and zen touches, which contributed to the ambience of the cafe, even had an IG worthy photo op spot. The cashier and other worker were so kind and patient enough to tell us their recommendation based on our preferences and let me say this...they were spot on ! I had the Taro milk tea with boba (absolutely delicious and my sister had the white chocolate latte. which were both DELICIOUS!! I also had the pork gyoza which was phenomenal...so crispy, flavorful and filling! The prices and portions were great also! The pastries seem to be a hot commodity as they were all sold out by the time we got there but I'll definitely have to come back to try more things on the menu (popcorn chicken, YES please!! and some pastries! I will certainly be back and will tell others of this hidden gem! Zimo, see you soon!

I am rarely in Tampa/Riverview anymore since moving to South Carolina, but when I am, I always want to try something new!This cafe was minutes down the road from my mom's house so I decided to try it after looking up pictures on Instagram. Wow was it delicious! I arrived there at 11 on a Sunday and the pastries were flying off the shelves. In the blink of an eye, all the cheese bread sold out and several customers were asking for more. I was taking some home so I decided to get a bunch of things. Garlic Hot Dog bun, Rose Bun, Curry Chicken, BBQ pork floss bun and two almond cinnamon buns. Before I hit the road to head back home I ate the garlic Hot Dog bun and omg, it was so good! I bought 2 more right after! I also ordered a cheese jasmine green tea and it was so fragrant, floral and refreshing! There is so much to choose from, service is fast and friendly! I definitely recommend trying this place out!

Floss roll: The salad dressing in the bread has a condensed milk vibe.Scallion hot dog bun: The hot dog's a tad salty, with a strong scallion flavor. Underneath, it's not salad dressing.Matcha red bean mochi bun: The red bean filling's more like a paste, pretty sweetButter pineapple bun: Sweet and savory buttery filling inside, but the pineapple bun itself isn't sweet.Update: The floss roll this time wasn't as good
