Ming Xiang Tai Pastry Shop

Ming Xiang Tai Pastry Shop is famous for their trishaw egg tart, there are also other varieties & ingredients such as 'siew bao', durian pie, salted egg & chicken floss pastry and many more...recommended for tourists to bring as souviner for family &friends.

After visiting Xingzhou Bridge, I was a little hungry, so I ordered tea eggs and egg tarts. The egg tarts were freshly baked, hot and delicious, but the most memorable thing was the tea eggs, which were very tasty and had a strong tea aroma.

Right here at the Jie Di Baozi mural, the atrium storefront, the decoration is antique, the taste is ancient, and it has received rave reviews. How could I, a super fan of cakes, miss it? I ordered the tricycle greasy, the tofu pudding and egg yolk crisps are 100% matched!

I recommend this egg tart, Ming Xiang Thai Bakery, the skin is thin and the filling is thick, super delicious, and there is also durian pastry, which is really crispy. I also bought delicious egg yolk pastry, wife cake, barbecued pork bun, rice cake corner, etc. I want to try everything I haven't eaten before. Each one is about 1.8-2RM, durian pastry and pineapple mango pastry are 3RM, two small boxes cost 17 MYR

I checked when I passed by this place. This Mingxiangtai Bakery is very famous in the local area. Several Europeans came by tricycle to buy cakes. This building is really ancient, and the words on the plaques and couplets are very skillful. The tea products are arranged very carefully, and there are pictures to introduce the products. In the end, I bought a large box of Guangdong cakes and tasted them when I returned to the hotel. The taste was superb, mainly slightly sweet but not greasy, and the pastry was very fragrant. It is really a good souvenir and the price is not expensive.

During the few days in Penang, I ate their egg yolk pastry every day! Because it is really delicious. Egg yolk pastry has different flavors. Except for the durian flavor, I like all the others. I still like the traditional lotus seed paste egg yolk the most. Their egg yolk is very big, and they use fresh salted egg yolk, which is dry but not difficult to eat; salty but goes well with the lotus seed paste. The outer layer of all the pastries is very crispy, one bite at a time, highly recommended! There are several of their stores in the ancient street of Georgetown, Penang (it seems to be two or three stores), and you can buy them anywhere! And the seller is super nice. There is no seat in the beverage store next to it, but he actually invited us to sit in his store with other drinks... Of course, we would be embarrassed to sit if we didn't buy a few cakes. The price is considered favorable, 2.2 Malaysian ringgits each (about RMB 3.6/piece), and eating an egg yolk pastry in Guangdong costs twice as much. They also have baked pastries such as barbecued pork pastry, and I really want to try them all! The store is doing very well, and you can buy freshly baked pastries every time. Drinks are provided and there are seats to sit and eat, but there is no air conditioning and the whole store is very hot.

The environment and products are both "old-fashioned". It is close to the surname bridge, and the storefront sign is eye-catching. Next to it is one of the famous murals in Penang. The little girl and her brother reached out through the iron window to the bicycle full of steamers. The famous tricycle egg tarts and barbecued pork puffs here are the most delicious when they are freshly baked. The price is not expensive, about 2.5 Malaysian dollars per piece. There are also teas and herbal teas such as Phoenix Dancong tea for sale. The environment is classic and charming, and there is also an area for dining in.

It's not as delicious as the legend says. I feel there is still a gap with the ones in China. It's not Cantonese at all. There is one near the Mural Street, and there is also their herbal tea shop next to it. I went in and bought a bottle of tea and sat down to avoid the sun. The clerk was an old Chinese grandfather. The store played old songs like "Night Shanghai" and it was quite atmospheric.
