An old-style tea shop and bakery that's baking by 6 a.m. The star is the polo bun: a crackly sugar crust with real pineapple jam inside, unlike the filling-free Hong Kong version. Curry puffs packed with chicken or beef, coconut buns and char siu pastries also vanish fast every morning. It's a worn, cash-only shop, but locals queue and leave with full bags.
