  • Pineapple Bun is a classic sweet bun famous in Hong Kong. Despite the name, it does not contain any pineapple. It is called so because the skin of the bun resembles a pineapple skin. This is achieved by a special baking technique that makes the top of the bun into crispy, crunchy and sweet topping with pineapple checked-like pattern. While the top of the bun is made from cookie type dough, the rest of the bun is soft normal bread dough. This bun is commonly served like a sandwich where it is sliced through the centre and eaten with butter.
  • Average HK$ 5-6

This cafe is the best retro cafe in Hong Kong if you want to try out all the traditional pastries, snacks and tea of the olden days.

Mooncake

AT 逸東軒Yat Tung Heen
  • If you know what the Mid-autumn festival is, I’m sure you’ll know what mooncake is, because they are inseparable. Mid-autumn festival is a Chinese traditional festival for lunar worship and moon-watching and mooncake is commonly eaten on this festival. Traditionally, mooncake is a round-shaped baked pastry filled with either lotus seed paste or red bean paste and complemented with an egg yolk. They are condensed and rich in flavour, so it is normal to share a mooncake with families and eat it with tea. These days, there are various versions of mooncake, cold, jelly, ice cream and fruit mooncakes.
  • Average HK$ 300 - 400 per box
