Ho Hsing 1947

Very decent pastry and dessert. They make it freshly every day.

A bit expensive, but the traditional sesame flavor is pretty authentic. Recommend eating at the store so they steam the cake for you. Bonus, they give you a small cup of good tea to go with the cake.

Freshly steamed and served with a complimentary tea, great for the self-declared connoisseurs of any gastronomic genre. Take extra note of texture and temperature—perfection. Worth the price tag, unlike most eateries on this street.

Sweet little shop for traditional 江浙 pastries.

The cake is overrated! The shop was crowed with tourists! Ordering was so messy and hectic! Service was so bad and rude! At first, they said you can eat here and they will heat up the cake for you. After you ordered, they told me no sitting is allowed because I didn’t order their set meal, you can only stand in the crowd to “enjoy” your cake! What’s the point of the “eat here” service? And when did you tell me you have set meal? They should offer take away only! Also, they warm up sticky rice cake with the plastic wrapping. When asked for a wax paper bag to put the cake in, the staff told me they can’t give out any paper bag. In the end she gave me a piece wax paper unwillingly.
