Like every other Singaporean these days, I love orh nee an unnatural amount. And I too, love two men bagels an unnatural amount. So believe me when I said I rushed down to reach the bagel place at 11 am on a Sunday morning just to get my hands on their CNY special.
The fillings worked wonderfully together, with the candied gingko nuts, the caramelised sugar, the slightly sweetened coconut cream. The orh nee itself was a thick and smooth paste which was great, but what ruined it was the temperature. Orh nee is a warm Teochew dessert, but this one was served cold and smeared on a bagel which I didn’t appreciate and really caused the dish to fall flat.
With that being said, I think I will just stick to their good old regular bagels next time.
