I was always filled with longing to try the Polo bun at Kum Wah Coffee Shop and my dream finally came true! On that particular morning when I got up early to prepare for my very first Disneyland tour, I hopped on the MTR at Yau Ma Tei Station to Mongkok Station and alighted at the exit the nearest to Bute Street. Took a leisure stroll down Sai Yeong Choi Street to reach Kum Wah coffee shop at Bute Street.

Upon my arrival, I was greeted by the buttery aroma of bread products from Kum Wah. The temptation was so great. I just couldn't be bothered by the crowd and I made a beeline for any unoccupied seats to place my order before the buns were all snapped. Mum and I had one plain Polo bun, one Polo bun with a slab of butter and an egg tart of course.

The food arrived at summer lightning's speed. We couldn't wait to savour the bun the moment it appeared before us. I grabbed the bun in hand and bit into it, ignoring the presence (and function) of the fork completely. Oh, Mamma Mia! The Polo Bun was fantastic! The crust was extraordinary crunchy! Where else on earth can I ever get such good food if it wasn't for you, KUM WAH! Trust me, I'm not exaggerating, it's the best I've ever tried. Imagine when the cold butter melts lightly in the hot crusty bun and followed by the melting of both the crust and butter inside your mouth, how heavenly it is......

As for the highly-acclaimed egg tart, it was quite tasty too but not the type that worth too much of a mention. When I returned to Malaysia, I just couldn't help thinking of the Polo Bun over and over again. I wish I could be there once more to have another helping, be it just a single bite or a satisfying one...
