Once upon a time, this humble hole-in-the-wall known only to attentive locals. Sai Kung Café & Bakery is just a couple steps away from Sai Kung Bus Terminus and is a must-visit attraction should you find yourself in the seaside town. If it’s not the snaking queues that give its location away, then it’s the sweet aroma of freshly baked bread and pastries wafting through the air, including a pineapple bun. Severed larger and rounder than usual, this straight-out-the-oven bake glistens with a golden-brown caramelised crust—the smooth, soft texture pairs perfectly with the chilled butter slab tucked in between.
