Black soya beancurd with Ginko nuts ($2.70)

Having learnt that this was made from black soya beans unlike the usual traditional beancurd (yes I'm a sucker for novelty), I knew I had to try this.
The first bite I had was pretty underwhelming. Sure it was so incredibly smooth, but... it wasn't sweet at all and I missed the stronger soybean fragrance found in other beancurds.
But, something interesting happened. I took it home and the tossing and turning must have given my container of beancurd a good stir. Now this, this was when the magic started. The silky beancurd intergrated almost seamlessly with the sweet syrup and it was so smooth, it practically glided down my throat. Taste wise, it was milder than the usual beancurd. Paired with the slightly bitter ginko nuts, this humble dessert brought my meal to a (not cloyingly) sweet end.
With such good taste & texture, the supposed benefits of black soyabeans, and being taught that in life, good things come to those who wait, I think the price premium over the conventional beancurd is pretty reasonable.

**they serve the original conventional beancurds here too, so be sure to ask for the black soyabeancurd if you're also there to try it!**
