How about mini baguettes?

This is the definition from my dictionary:

猪仔包 • a French-style bread, similar to a small baguette, commonly seen in Hong Kong and Macao.

Yikes! Is that all you ate for dinner?

豬仔包 with cream cheese, soup, red wine and some biscuits made a great dinner.

I think mini/small baguettes will do. But sometimes they are too round to be called baguettes. And we tend to call all such hard-skinned small bread rolls 豬仔包.

Looks like it is (also) called brötchen in German.

Has it got a different name in Putonghua?

I've seen something similar here, and they call them French rolls or Portuguese rolls. It's basically a dinner roll.

How about 法式晚餐面包？

I would have called them dinner rolls.

Supermarkets in the UK usually call them petits pains. Does 豬仔 mean piglet in Cantonese?

Yes.

For reference, mini baguette is translated as 迷你法棍

Here in Perth, I have seen them referred to as "Vietnamese Rolls" in the supermarket. I guess this is because there is (was) a lot of French influence on Vietnamese bread making.

These 豬仔包 sandwiches are so tasty! And they go so well with cava! (Please see new photo in the first post.)
