Lobby Lounge (Crowne Plaza Changi Airport)

In this next series of mooncakes I have tried this year, featured here is the assorted snowskin mooncake from Crowne Plaza Hotel @cpchangiairport . Each box comes with 4 assorted flavours ($74) that are very unique to Singapore! Ranked according to my preference:

🌸 Mango pomelo: contains white lotus paste, mango, pomelo

I love how it is midly sweet to balance out the slight bitterness of the pomelo

🌸 Orh Nee: Yam paste with gingko nut

Smoothy creamy fragrant yam paste!!

🌸 Pandan Kaya: Pandan paste and kaya jam

Very fragrant coconut custard that goes super well with the Kaya jam

🌸Kueh salat: pandan paste and white glutinous rice

This pandan paste was similar to the pandan Kaya one. But the inner core of the frozen white glutinous rice seems to be an acquired taste.

Stocks are still available at their Change Alley Booth! Do check them out if you are interested to try this uniquely Singapore snowskin mooncake flavours!🤗

Mid-autumn Festival is round the corner, and having some mooncakes is part of the festive custom for this special occasion.

This year, my money goes to Crowne Plaza Hotel’s snowskin mooncakes (S$59.50). Personally, I think that snowskin mooncakes have more room for creativity than the traditional baked mooncakes, and Crowne Plaza Hotel has actually managed to incorporate tea recipes into them.

Among the four flavours in the assortment, the Matcha Adzuki is perhaps the most common around, with the perfect Matcha and red bean duo in action. The Chrysanthemum Wintermelon flavour is a little too heavy on the wintermelon candy taste. Their Red Date Wolfberry mooncake is my favourite in this box, with distinct notes of red date tea and a touch of wolfberries. Last but not the least, the Earl Grey with Pearl flavour is like a tribute to bubble tea lovers, but it is somehow too off to be considered as an authentic flavour.

Each purchase also comes along with a S$20.00 voucher, redeemable at Lobby Lounge or Bar ‘75. It just added more happiness to make this box of mooncakes worth having.

Substantial portion but it’s an average burger at best. Was expecting a bit more for this (was hoping for a homemade patty), but with a 1-for-1 #BurppleBeyond deal, guess you can’t complain much. It’s a nice spot to chill at the airport away from the crowds.

We ordered this so we can match the burger price for the 1-for-1 deal, but won’t really recommend it (at least not the roasted version as it is a tad dry). The portion was very generous though, and the service was attentive. The space is rather intimate, so it’s good for quiet date nights right within the airport compound.

A huge Christmas Ham! Chef slices a chunk of it to go with salads and soft fluffy Chinese buns. Christmas Kong Bak Pau! Available at Crowne Plaza Changi Airport.
