How locals do it
An old-school sticky-rice cake window. The signatures are 「条头糕」 (red bean roll) and 「双酿团」 (double-filled ball). Sweet and savoury both — locals grab these for breakfast. Eat them warm; they go hard when cold.
Don't get this wrong
Cash or Chinese QR codes, zero English. When they sell out, they close — by afternoon only one or two kinds may be left. Go in the morning for the full range.
