Yeung Shing Gourmet

If you crave traditional desserts, Yeung Shing Gourmet on Pau Chung Street is where you should head to.

The signature black sesame roll is a kind of Chinese cold confectionery commonly seen in the 70s and 80s. It has a nickname “film roll” that the younger generation may never have heard of. “According to our boss, only diners in their forties and fifties know the origin of the nickname.” Rumour has it that the roll was a classic sweet treat during the Qing Dynasty and was served in Manchu-Han Imperial Feast. Would you like to have a try?
