When you enter Tai O village, this stall is near the entrance and hard to miss, selling those traditional Chinese sweet/savoury teacakes.The popular white ones with peanut and coconut filling are usually sold out first, they are similar to mochi but not dusted with flour.Anyway, the ones I got were the dark coloured ones that people do not find appetising, but I thought it was OK, actually I thought they looked a bit like the black Chinese mushrooms hence the name 隐姑茶果 but actually then I realis

Anyway, the ones I got were the dark coloured ones that people do not find appetising, but I thought it was OK, actually I thought they looked a bit like the black Chinese mushrooms hence the name 隐姑茶果 but actually then I realised 隐姑茶果 was the name of the shop.After reading the reviews on OpenRice, I found out they were called 鸡屎籐 teacakes, made from a herb called 鸡屎籐 (Paederia scandens).
For me, they tasted Ok, slightly chewy, and sweet, the size was bite-sized.
It costs $4 for 4.
Apart from looking like Chinese mushrooms, they reminded me of Beadlet Anemones found in rocky shores around all coasts of the UK
The Beadlet Anemones are fun to play with too, they will squirt out water when pressure is applied on them!
