It looks and tastes delicious; even my husband, who doesn't usually like Hong Kong-style turnip cake, raved about it.

I bought four, and ate one first. I read the reviews before buying them and was quite worried, but they tasted pretty good after cooking. Maybe it's just my taste that's gotten to me. They were delicious.
Jeanne
It's very convenient to slice it open and pan-fry it on both sides. Although there isn't much white radish inside, it's a good option when you don't want to cook it yourself, so you can just buy it ready-made.
