The steamed bun shop on Hunan Road near the library that I frequently grab
breakfast from on the way to work.  Steamed buns are light, yeasted, white
bread about the size of a fist.  A variety of fillings could be put
inside.  I eventually tried its entire menu, and the woman recognizes me
(though obviously we can't have a real conversation; the best I can do it
attempt to say very clearly in Mandarin what I want).
