Abee Traditional Buns

I was staying not too far from this place and I saw as recommendation from social media and decided to give it a try. When I was at the shop, I saw the bread and the sizes were almost double from typical bread, and the price was also almost the same as well! Bought a few to try, hoping there would be a traditional taste to them. To be honest, not really a fan of them, it doesn't suit my personal taste but its different for every individual. In general, the bread and the bun are quite thick and dense and dry, and there isn't much filling in them. Felt hard to swallow had to down it with a drink. The butter bun wasn't how I expected it to be, was hoping it to look more lava rather than being so dry. Same for the red bean bread as well. The one which might be more passable was the char siew soh. Taste of the meat was okay but the crust was quite hard as well. Sizes are big and prices are reasonable, too bad didn't go well with my palate. Definitely subjective for every individual, as can see from previous reviews that many actually liked it.

Bought garlic bread - need to toast. Just nice with coffee or mushrooms soup. Might too dry if eat without coffee or soup. The size is huge. Share two persons. Butter milk bun is good too.

Like the more solid bun here, unlike those soft bun feel like eating air. Chicken & butter milk taste nice. Red bean paste taste super, more dense, not too sweet. The fillings are sufficient for those main focus is to eat nicer bread instead of the fillings.

They are sells steamed bun and breads. Try the butter and garlic bread just like the other people recommend. The garlic size was quite big and tasted good. But for the butter it's average size and taste. At least the price was right and it's fresh baked.

Love the overall old school vibes of the place. I got a butter bun and a coconut bun - but I wish the buns were a tad more fluffy. Coconut bun was better though with the light sweetness of the coconut!

Best traditional bun in town!

Update October 2024: Seems like the buns are improving a bit, the fillings are back! Left image: taken in March 2024 Right inage: taken from October 2024 See how much difference the fillings are March 2024: Overall filling given us less compared to last time, ratio used to be more meat compared to now, this is the chasiu & chicken bun

My first time trying cha sio puff. It's out of this world. It's like curry puff but better. You could actually taste the meat in it. Make sure to come early. Perfect for breakfast or snack through out the day. But the place close just after lunch time. So stock up for afternoon tea time.
