包囍饅頭 屏東建豐

The Bao Xi Steamed Bun shop that just opened in Pingtung has an overwhelming crowd, and it's easy to see why everyone buys more than ten buns at once. Here, the variety of bun flavors is so extensive that it’s hard to choose; the official count mentions over 40 options, encompassing both savory and sweet, with plenty of filling.

Each bun is larger than expected and very reasonably priced, ranging from 20 to 35 TWD.

The key point is that they are really delicious. The buns are made with sourdough fermentation and then mixed with milk, resulting in a moist texture with a bit of chewiness.

I highly recommend their bursting sesame mochi bun, which has a very rich filling and the mochi part is soft and chewy with a pulling sensation. The German sausage bun is also quite tasty and stands out among the savory options.

If you bring them home and refrigerate them, steaming them the next day in a rice cooker maintains the texture almost perfectly; they remain delicious and soft, making them an excellent choice for breakfast.

With a wide variety, reasonable prices, large size, and generous fillings, this is a must-visit place for anyone looking for affordable and creative steamed buns.
