I know that Mei Lai Wah is kind of hyped right now for their cha siu bao, pineapple buns, and pineapple pork buns - but is there anything else on their menu that's worth trying?

Question

*And by "worth trying", I don't mean transcendental or life-changing. Are there any other menu items that are *good* in relation to the average Chinese bakery? Like, the types of items where you wouldn't make a special trip to go buy but where if you happen to be walking by and there's no line, you would stop in to grab?
