This is another of the pastry shops that the Mom has been patronizing for years...from the times when each was priced at a mere 60 cents to 90 cents now, sooner or later it'll break the dollar barrier!
Buy 5 pastries and get a box...naturally I got a box, rather than lugging the pastries back and risk getting it crushed en route home.
Their signature yellow box!
Up close, golden brown~
Egg Tart (Left)
It's not too flaky, custard's not too sweet. After seating an entire day in the box, I say it tastes not too bad! Apparently their best seller.
Lotus Paste pastry
Flaky melt in the mouth pastry coupled with smooth lotus paste. What I like about this is the lotus paste being just right in sweetness.
Wife Biscuit
Flaky pastry with a generous winter melon filling...made this my second favourite in the box of goodies.
Custard Pineapple Bun
The Mom commented the custard's the old fashioned kind of custard, very pasty and clumpy in the golden yellow hue...not sweet. I prefer my custard smooth...but the pineapple bun's delicious.
Coconut pastry
My least favourite of the lot...it's coconut cake atop the egg tart pastry. Not quite distinct in taste either.
It's always heartwarming to eat something so traditional after all the western cakes and pies and tarts and whatnot. Going back to the roots, having history all in a box! The best part of it, all these goodies aren't too sweet, perfect! Nonetheless, I'll be back for more...at least before they hit the dollar mark!
