Sunny Hills, a pineapple cake brand from Taiwan, is now available in Taipei, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Tokyo. The Shanghai branch, located on 133 Yuanmingyuan Road right behind The Peninsula, is a bright second floor space composed of not much other than an elongated table, meant for people to rest their feet and have a pineapple cake…for free.
台灣的鳳梨酥名店微熱山丘似乎生意不錯，在上海、香港、新加坡、和東京都開了分店。上海的分店位于圓明園路133號2樓，就在半島酒店後方，雖然離外灘不遠，卻是個相當安靜舒服的區域。店內設計明亮，不小的空間裡就放了一個長桌，讓客人歇歇腳，喝杯烏龍茶，當然還能品嚐鳳梨酥…而且一切免費。
For those who haven’t had pineapple cakes, these are rectangular pastry shells wrapping thick, chunky pineapple jam. Sunny Hills prides itself in using freshly harvested sun-ripened pineapples indigenous of Taiwan, resulting in a fragrant, and especially tangy pineapple filling. The outside pastry shell is also made with care, using flours from Japan, butter from New Zealand, and eggs from a Taiwanese farm apparently renowned for using classical music to inspire the breeding process (?).
微熱山丘使用台灣八卦山的土鳳梨，原味熬煮而成的內陷比一般常吃到的要酸上一些，而且保有了果肉的口感。外皮的用料也有講究，用的是日本面粉、紐西蘭奶油、和據說是聽古典樂長大的雞生的蛋（真的嗎？）。
And yes, these pineapple cakes are very delicious. With a cup of Oolong tea, this makes the perfect afternoon snack.
樸實的美味，配上一杯烏龍茶，是份令人吃了相當舒服的下午小點。
They also sell pineapple juice made from the same native pineapples of Taiwan, though I haven’t had a chance to try it yet. In fact, the shop is currently experiencing some issues at the customs so the stocks for both pineapple cakes and juices are running low, but go for a tasting and if you like, come back another day to take home a box (120 RMB/10 pastries, 180 RMB/15 pastries). Happy tasting.
微熱山丘也有售賣使用台灣土鳳梨制成鳳梨汁，不過這我倒還沒嚐過。聽說由于海關問題現在店裏缺貨，不過試吃品還是有的 － 若你路過附近，不妨上樓嚐顆鳳梨酥 。
