Boston's Chinatown is set to get a fresh taste of authenticity with the opening of Canton Liyin Rice Roll Master, bringing the heritage of Guangzhou's street food to the city. This new addition is sliding into the space once occupied by the beloved Hing Shing Pastry at 67 Beach Street, which closed its doors last September. Known for its delectable Cantonese rice noodle rolls, the eatery promises to continue the legacy of quality and tradition in this historic neighborhood.

According to Boston Restaurants, the chain that praises itself for a philosophy of "quality is life and customers are God," has chosen Boston as its entrance into the US market - a significant leap across the pond. The menu boasts an array of steamed rice noodle rolls, commonly stuffed with an assortment of meat, seafood or vegetables in a concept that is both traditional in preparation and contemporary in its adaptability to the modern palate.

The rise of Canton Liyin Rice Roll Master has been a story of skillful entrepreneurship under Mr. He Yingbin who since 2019, has expanded the brand to over a hundred stores across seven states in China. The company's website speaks volumes of its dedication to the 'intangible cultural heritage of the Cheong fun craftsmanship,' aiming to honor and elevate a staple of Guangdong province cuisine to the international stage.

As for the locale, the former Hing Shing Pastry was a cornerstone of Boston's Chinese cuisine scene for years with a selection that included almond cookies, egg custard buns, and sesame balls; it was a go-to spot for sweet and savory treats alike, and while regulars were sad to see it go, the anticipation for the Canton Liyin Rice Roll Master to fill the pastry-shaped hole in their hearts and stomachs
