A pork chop bun is a well-known snack in Macau,and has been described as a Macau specialty. [1] The pork chop bun is derived from bifana,a Portuguese pork sandwich.
The bun (locally called a "piggy bun") is extremely crisp outside and very soft inside. [2] A fried pork chop is placed in the bun [2] horizontally. The pork chop bun has been described as "the Macanese version of a hamburger." [3]
