Walking along Zhongzheng Road, which is parallel to Tamsui Old Street, it is easy to spot several traditional cakes, and the one with the longest queue is "Yuan Wei." A quick search online reveals that this is indeed the shop that sparked the trend, and it has even opened multiple branches in the Greater Taipei area.
The eye-catching red sign bluntly mocks, "Originally, there was only us! Why are there more and more now!"
Traditional cake shops are not uncommon, but they need to be freshly baked and eaten on the spot. The cakes are soft, just right, and filled with fragrance. The staff can help with slicing, so your fingers won't get oily.
Leaving some cake in the fridge to reheat later can result in it being overbaked and losing its texture. It seems that next time, it's better to finish it off sooner.
