We finally found another Chinese dessert place in Bugis - Chow Zan Dessert! This is a cosy Chinese dessert eatery near Tipo and it serves traditional Chinese desserts, as well as versions with pretty innovative takes on them too (the white chendol on a few of their desserts is a favourite). We went on a Monday evening and were pleasantly surprised to find that there were not many customers, hence it was a pretty nice environment to chat over a sweet treat.

We tried the durian sago, which is basically a bowl of durian paste topped with actual durian flesh and sago! The durian paste was certainly creamy and we liked that it was served really cold, although we felt that it had a slightly artificial taste (though this is much better than that served with the D24 durian mcflurry). While the durian flesh looked dull yellow and did not seem fresh at first glance, it was surprisingly good and it packed a concentrated punch of durian flavour!

Given that there was some actual durian added to the dish, we felt that $7.20++ was a fairly reasonable price for the dish. Nonetheless, the dishes at this stall are generally slightly more expensive than what you can find at other similar dessert stalls.
