Its bright yellow walls lined with the names of Hong Kong districts and destinations, All Day Polo Bun serves up the famed pineapple buns of cha chaan tengs with a dozen different stuffings. You can have them savoury, packed with possibilities like luncheon meat wrapped in fried egg (RM7.90); plain butter; ham and cheese; and even an XL-sized chicken chop; or sweet, with a princely portion of ice cream or sorbet - we had the tangy lemon sorbet, but others might opt for dark chocolate, salted caramel, vanilla or uji matcha flavours (RM15.90 each), washed down with ultra-refreshing milk tea in an ice bucket (RM6.90).
Fun Fact One: All Day Polo Bun's sibling-founders Chester and Leena Lee journeyed to Hong Kong to study the art of preparing polo buns, but they've tweaked their recipe subtly for Malaysian preferences - each sweet bun is still served fresh and warm with a distinctive crumbly top crust, but Chester says the insides of the bun are a bit softer than HK's norm.
Fun Fact Two: All Day Polo Bun is new in the Klang Valley, but its team also runs Hong Kong 8AM, a nearly two-year-old cafe in Penang, on Macalister Lane in George Town.
