This is where I bought freshly baked puffed biscuit...I think they called it xiang ping. The taxi driver said they dont normally sell if they dont have stock....I was lucky...only thing is I only bought one! And after eating, I regretted cos it was very good! Should have bought more! But this was located in the outskirts.
