Looking for the most famous pineapple bun in Hong Kong? Locals will definitely recommend Jinhua Ice Hall, located near the Prince Edward subway station. Jinhua has been in business for more than 30 years and is a traditional nostalgic ice house. In the early years, Hong Kong people believed that the Western-style meal buns from England had a single taste, so the puff pastry made of sweet fillings such as sugar and honey was sprinkled on the surface of the bread, and after baking, it resembled a pineapple, hence the name, but in fact there was no pineapple in the pineapple bun.

The outer puff pastry of pineapple buns is baked with sugar, eggs, flour and lard, which is the soul of pineapple buns and gives a unique taste to ordinary breads. A delicious pineapple oil seems to be a simple method, but in fact, the following conditions need to be met: the pineapple bun should be fresh and served with residual warmth; The puff pastry should have a texture and not be too soft; The inside of the bread should not be too soft, otherwise it will be an unreal material; Butter must be thick and frozen; The butter must be in its entirety. At present, there are few tea restaurants that can meet the above conditions, and in cities like Hong Kong, which have high food standards, there are even many tea restaurants that outsource the pineapple bun business and purchase wholesale from other places, and the taste is difficult to guarantee.

Jinhua Ice Hall has a bakery in its own store to produce bread, and the most important thing is that the pineapple bun is not emulsified, and the bread can be seen to be firm in the middle of the cut, and the entrance will not be empty. The store never mass-produces pineapple buns, all of them are made in small batches to ensure that each pineapple bun is freshly baked and very hot when served. Butter is the protagonist of pineapple oil, Jinhua Ice Hall uses a whole piece of frozen Anchor butter into a hot pineapple bun, the taste of ice and fire is perfectly intertwined, and it must be accompanied by salted lemon seven or milk tea, this is a perfect package.

In terms of food taste, Jinhua Ice Hall is a great restaurant, but what has been criticized is the service attitude. Whether it is for locals or out-of-towners, the service attitude of the store is average. If you can't find a seat when you enter the restaurant, the waiter will definitely "choke" with the diners. If you say something that the waiter doesn't understand when ordering or you don't understand what he says, you'll have a mouthful. It should be noted that the minimum consumption per person for seated dining in the restaurant is one drink, and the food is not included, so diners who do not know this regulation will immediately be looked at by the waiter. In addition, if there are no people who need to wait in the seats, it is forbidden in the Jinhua Ice Hall, and it is recommended that people enter the restaurant again in order to avoid disputes. This kind of service attitude is full of Hong Kong-style market style, and it is also in line with the taste of a small number of diners.
