Sai Kung Cafe & Bakery: Pineapple Bun + Fresh Butter

This small bakery, headed by the experienced owner and baker Tong Gor, has been in business in Sai Kung for more than a decade. Its crispy golden pineapple bun with a large piece of frozen, thick-sliced butter, is popular among residents and visitors. Some residents say that they eat one almost every day. There has once been an astonishing sales volume of 500 buns per day.

The baking process of the pineapple bun crust involves a combination of baking cookies and walnut cookies, making it extra sweet and crunchy. The dough is made of high-quality flour and lard made in Japan and undergoes low-temperature fermentation three times. After the baking process of the pineapple bun, a thick slice of frozen butter is sandwiched inside, which will be slightly melted by the hot bun. So it is recommended to taste the bun as soon as possible to get its best flavor!
