As you can see from the menu I’ve uploaded (in Chinese, English and even Japanese), they have several pre-set meals with either Shanghainese bok choi rice or Shanghainese ramen, small dishes and soya milk to go with your main. I didn’t go for their set meals as I had my eyes on their meat cakes. As far as I could tell from my neighbours’ food, the lunch sets were pretty decent (and good value too!). Might come another day for lunch sets.

My cakes came in 2 mins. I guess they couldn’t do “make to order” as there tends to be a large lunch crowd in their cosy little place. It didn't matter, my buns were still hot. I liked that the cakes were not mouth-burningly hot as it would be a hazard since there were plenty of meat broth sitting patiently inside the thin, lightly fried, crispy crust, waiting to meet your palate.

The beef cake was the better of the two. The patty was flavourful. It was soft and moist, with green onions to intensify the flavour. The pepper pork cake was not very exciting. The pork was a bit gamey and sour (probably inexpensive pork scraps). They could have hidden the unpleasant taste with more pepper, but they didn’t. Very tiny hint of pepper, ever so slightly spicy – I guess it was a localised flavour. I shouldn’t compare it to the Taiwanese pepper beef/pork buns you find in night food markets.

Friendly and efficient staff. Cosy decor. Tissue paper provided for juice spilling actions. I
would pay another visit for their beef cakes (@$15).
