Agree. Please do merge. Take the categories and put it in Chinese pastry. I think that is why I didn't find it before. It doesn't hurt if you have both pics so the one I upload doesn't get orphaned. Thanks.

Origin of the name
"gai mai" literally means "chicken tail" or cocktail.
is "gai mai" Cantonese for cocktail (alcoholic beverage)? Or is it an idiom meaning "odds and ends", which would fit the description of the invention of the bun?
(Aside: I do quite like the English translation of the name. It is one of the few foods that has a nice English translation.) —Preceding
