Before sunrise, steam from the baskets is already drifting onto the street; the shop has been here for over 60 years. The star is tangbao: it looks like a plain steamed bun, but the cabbage and pork filling runs with juice. Add oven-baked shaobing and hot soy milk for the full Taiwanese breakfast. Tangbao can sell out after 8 a.m.
