We had pretty high expectations for Yan Palace, after all it's an established restaurant that has been serving Cantonese cuisine all these years. But when this orh nee was served, it was really nothing but disappointment.
First of all, the yam paste was chunky and doesn't flow smoothly. The lack/reduced pork lard affects the dessert's texture tremendously. An authentic Teochew yam paste wouldn't have a single bit of coconut milk but here, the yam paste was covered in coconut milk. The creamy coconut milk overpowered the original flavour of the yam. The biggest no no in this; not only there wasn't any pumpkin, they actually replaced it with orange jelly bits, pumpkin flavored I suppose but I can't really figure that out.
