Lao Zhongyang insists on baking fresh to order; the moment a tray comes out of the oven a queue forms instantly. The shop offers four refined flavors—sesame candy, scallion-meat, red-bean, and sesame-paste—each seasoned to perfection. The scallion-meat version layers its meat so delicately that every bite is delicious, and every tier of the shao-bing stays crisp and flaky. Though the tiny store has moved several times within the same neighborhood, its devoted regulars have always followed, never abandoning it. Today’s successor is Chen Zhihong, a sixth-grade graduate who has made this shop the starting point of his career, keeping the beloved flavors intact while adding youthful energy. Come visit Lao Zhongyang and give this young guardian of tradition your encouragement.
