When we were little, we went to school chewing a bun. And the taste of the bun is a lot of people’s childhood memory. Jim Sai Bakery opened for almost 50 years and a lot of residents has become regular customers. When the shop first opened, a lot of Macanese residents live nearby, therefore the bakery made various products in Portuguese style. Over the years, a lot of restaurant strives to make more delicate yet this bakery remains classic warm and steadfast.

RECOMMENDATION
Cream cone puff
In the 50s, cream cone puff is very popular but due to its complicated steps, we can only find them at classic bakeries. The swirly cone exterior and a cream-filled interior. I feel like I accidentally entered an old Hong Kong film.
Custard bun
This is different from the cream cone puffs we just introduced, this yellow custard bun has cream that are more thick and more textural. The yellow custard is very eye-catching, the bun has coconut shreds and the whole thing is awesome.
Sata andagi
Sata andagi, also known as egg ball in Cantonese, is one of the most well-known baked goods at the bakery. A lot of friends came just for it. The first bite is soft and full of egg flavor and the outer layer of sugar brings in some sweetness. It is full of texture and we can ensure you that for those who come just for it won’t be disappoint.
Chicken pie
For those who prefer savory baked goods, this chicken pie should satisfy you. The crispy outer layer and the rich butter flavor. The chicken filling also added many brownie points. During afternoon tea, a chicken pit and a cup of hot tea seems like a great way to ease your tiredness.
Walnut meringue
The owner of the bakery introduced us to this walnut meringue, which resembles macaron. The meringue on top acts like the exterior of a macaron. The walnut flavor is satisfying and extremely classic. If you are coming to Jim Sai, you must try this.
