It is one of the amazing place with suitable ambiance.
Unexpectedely very good food.
Service is good.
Price is were not too bad.
The quality and quantity of food is really good.
I will recommend for this place.

This is a bakery that offers a wide variety of rolls,patties, cakes etc. It's a great place if you are a little low on cash and wanna grab some quick bites. Every item of confectionery sold in this shop is a must try. Their doughnuts are some of the finest ones for the price that they are sold at. The only downside is that there is no seating available.
In frame : chicken burger, chicken crispy, sugar doughnut

Hot buns has two outlets in IC colony. This outlet is quite small, but very crowded. They have a lot of options in pastries, lot of variety. quality stuff. The Choco eclair is pretty good. They have a variety of non veg snacks as well. The pattices are very nice.

Must try :

Snacks -

Chicken Sandwich

Chicken Russian Cutlet

Chicken Croquettes

Chicken Pattice

Chicken Puff

Pastries -

Chocolate Truffle

Blueberry Cheesecake

Baked Cheese

Choco Eclair

Choco lava

They have the weirdest twist to an eclair.
It's not exactly a choux pastry, but it's pretty darn good.
The filling is more chocolate frosting than anything but... It's quite interesting.

Lemon tarts have a nice lemon curd filling but the tart short crust pastry could be flakier. Same with the chocolate tarts.

Chocolate balls and doughnuts that are too doughy.

But... Try the hazelnut pastry for sure... I could swear they use Nutella in it.

The other pastries are, to be honest, nothing special but the baked cheesecake is decent

This is one bakery I'd recommend to anyone and everyone. Located at Kanderpada, Dahisar and IC colony Borivli, this is one place to be.

Ambiance: It's a bakery. Stop looking for ambiance everywhere.

Food: Amazing snacks and pastries. Personal favorite is the Chicken Indiana Roll and the chicken manchurian roll. Also love the Russian cutlets, burgers and pattice.

Favorite sweets include chocolate balls, caramel custard and mousse. Do not go without tasting their awesome eclairs. Best thing you'll have that day.

Service: Again, it's a bakery. You pay, they give.

Beginning

My sisters & I were just walking outside of Bistro on the Go after a really disappointing experience, we were just walking a little ahead to wanting to try something

sweet there we found to two shops of opposite sides on the road to each other - Bangalore Iyengari & Hot Buns.

My sister does not like Bangalore (different branch) & I also had a similar disappointing experience, so we decided to try Hot Buns.

---------------------

Appearance

It's a small bakery that you won't see unless you are trying to find it (Before they put a standee which easily attracts attention).

It not very attention grabbing & which does not give much confidence in their ability.

It has in total three cabinets two for pastries & other sweet baked goods & the third cabinet that is in inner part of the shop that has the savory baked goods with a sign hanging at the top of the wall for the discount of 30% after 9 pm on certain stuff.

---------------------

Service

Nothing to say about the service, it feels a bit slow when there are more customers since on my many visits there was only one person to manage the whole shop in the afternoon, but it wasn't much of a problem for me as he was good at communication.

At night there are two staff who manage but they are not that good at interaction as the afternoon guy.

The shop it look like only keeps two variation of small sized box, so at the most two pastries can be fit in a box.

According to me that is a good thing plus they have are stored plastic container which also decreases the chance of the pastries touching each other in transit.

Food

On my many visits to this place I have tried many different things but limited to sweet baked stuff - pastries, tarts, some other baked goods & weird macaroons. (Opinions on savory goods is not included)

In pastries: Chocolate Truffle - Sponge felt slightly dry but the truffle used satisfying enough to overlook the overall taste.

Choco Hazelnut - I was a little disappointed to find no brownie in their shop(in my last visit found out they keep their brownies & muffins on top of the counter in the interior of the shop).

But found out upon eating this pastry that the chocolate sponge used was not the standard sponge expect in normal cakes, it was a brownie base used as layers with chocolate in between.

It was probably their best pastry of all the pastries I have tasted there.

Baked Cheesecake - This probably one of the cheapest baked cheesecake I have ever come across, it had a decent taste, but it wasn't complete cooked in the inner part so it had a similar texture to normal unheated lava cake instead of the rich pastry like texture that is expected of well done baked cheesecake.

I was extremely disappointed with the Caramel Custard & the Bread Pudding.

While both of them had a okay texture of what is expected of them, they were barely sweet so it wasn't really up to mark of what is expected of them & isn't worth one more try.

Even the macaroons were really weird not at all like any of the previous macaroons tried at different places.

It was hollow for the most part & the first thing you think after eating is that it tastes like 'Besan Ladoo but had more crisp to it'.

The cupcakes were a bit odd, it was mixed bag of result as the chocolate cupcake was good but felt that the blueberry cupcake was a bit too moist.

Also a weird thing to note the frosting on top of them were almost twice the size of the cupcakes & thanks to travelling by rickshaw a little bit was spread on the container.

Muffins were a bit of a surprise, I tried both Blueberry & the chocolate one.

The blueberry muffin had a filling of blueberry jam at the centre which was really surprising, and help to give a overall good taste & thankfully the muffin was moist enough to appetizing.

Thanks to the blueberry one I got my hope up high of expecting a chocolate filling in the centre & sadly it wasn't there, but thankfully the muffin was still good with a lot of chocolate chips, a bit dry but was still expected of chocolate muffin.

---------------------

Ending

FINAL OUTPUT - While the interior of the shop does not inspire confidence in a new customer, but once you try their products one's mind be easily swayed.

It's a really good shop to buy pastries at cheap cost & could easily be considered a better alternative to Monginis which is situated just a min walk away from the shop.

Love the bakery stuff
