Chilled Noodles Steamed BunSteamed wheat buns, also known as 'qiang mian lou', are a traditional Chinese pastry made primarily from flour. The dough is fermented, kneaded into shape, and then steamed. Its distinctive feature lies in the process of adding dry flour during preparation, which results in a chewier and more resilient texture.

The outer skin is crafted from fine wheat flour, wrapped around sweet bean paste, and steamed to achieve an appealing golden-yellow appearance.

Reviews
- Falcon_26This old-school steamed bun shop is seriously a carb lover's paradise!! Their signature red bean rolls are loaded with big chunks of walnuts and whole chestnuts mixed into a generous red bean filling — super hearty and satisfying. The baked buns are dense and chewy with just a hint of natural sweetness. The bean paste buns use real whole beans for the filling, slightly sweet but not cloying at all. The new location is clean and tidy, and the staff way more friendly than before. It's tucked inside the Shaoyaojubei Li residential complex — small storefront but you can't miss the sign. Lots of locals come here, and mornings have the best selection. Definitely try the baked buns, red bean rolls, and sugar flower rolls — steam them up at home and they get even fluffier. Prices are super reasonable, perfect for breakfast or stocking up on staples.
