Brittle yet very crunchy, with a rich buttery taste. Generous choco chips make each bite enjoyable. Sweetness was balanced. The cookies leave a sandy grit on your fingers.

I felt they did not pair well with milk, as the flavours stayed separate rather than blending together. Still, who can resist freshly baked cookies, right!? Best eaten on their own, and remember to drink more water after as these cookies can be quite heaty. Cheaper if you take away in a bag, but I bought the container packaging since they were gifts and looked more presentable. Buy more and you get a discount. Overall, the cookies are satisfying in their own way, especially when enjoyed fresh from the store.

Yummy till the last piece!? Lapis Lapis! kuih lapis might just be your next best pick to add into your kuih lapis ranking. A yummylicious version that makes you want more after just one bite. I tried both the original and prune flavour, and preferred the prune. It gave an additional sweet‑sourish fruity taste that balanced the rich, buttery density of the cake. Texture was smooth, moist, and tender. Best enjoyed chilled for better flavour and texture.

I also tasted all their cookies since they offered samples. Will share more in the next post, so keep a lookout.

Woah, what!? So wobbly and smooth. Surprised by the silky chilled texture that melts in your mouth. The ginger paste was thick and sweet, pairing beautifully with the chilled beancurd. Good thing I only poured half a cup, since it was intensely caramelised sweet with infused ginger. Definitely recommend trying this. If you do not eat ginger, they also have a caramelised version. Always nice to end a meal with a good dessert.

A small jug, good for three pax. Chilled and sourish, with a light sweetness. Refreshing after a meal. Said to benefit the throat, help recover the voice, and relieve soreness.

Piping hot rice infused with earthy, chewy mushroom, savoury minced meat, crunchy long beans, and mushy yet crunchy yam, steamed over homemade pork broth. Mix well before eating to avoid burnt bits. A little char is fine since “锅巴” scorched rice is worth the risk. XD

Portion was filling. It may look small outside, but the pot is deep inside. Rice was topped to the brim before the ingredients were arranged over it for a more appealing look. The yam was well executed, either par‑boiled then fried or fried with water added to oil. Mushrooms were generous and paired well with rice. Although the rice was steamed with pork‑based broth, the flavour felt light and the overall texture a little dry. A drizzle of sauce would have enhanced it, but too much broth risks turning the rice into porridge. Offering dark soya sauce condiments would let customers adjust to their own liking.

Simply irresistible. Whenever I am in Malaysia and spot this on the menu, you will most likely see me order it. Silky, slurpy, chewy noodles in a rich, savoury, fragrant broth infused with ginger, herbs, and a potent splash of gourmet yellow wine. Topped with red dates, ginger slices, shredded ginger, chicken meat, and a fried egg.

That distinct wine note with a strong gingery spice kick comforts the soul and warms the body. It is also said to help with blood circulation. The chicken was tender in parts, though some portions felt dry, and it came with plenty of bone, so eat carefully. The fried egg was fine, but for better presentation the yolk should have been intact and slightly runny. The broth leaned watery, making the flavour feel a little diluted. I am not sure if it was cooked from an instant mee suah package or from scratch, but I will give them the benefit of doubt.

After eating, you can even buy their instant mee suah product to bring back to Singapore at a slightly cheaper price here. This dish is more commonly found in Malaysia than in Singapore. If you know of any place serving it in Singapore, do let me know as I would love to try.

Serious black coffee drinkers gotta have this. The profile is aromatic, rich, and full-bodied. You can taste that solid intensity. It’s said to use a blend of Liberica, Arabica, and Robusta beans to achieve this depth.

Fruity, refreshing green tea with strawberries, rice puffs, milk, and cream foam. Creamy, sweet, and tarty.

Sparkling green tea meets sour plum. Sweet-sourish, crisp, and chill. A fizzy hit that refreshes.

A visually dreamy drink with clean, rich, naturally sweet date flavour. The dates sit at the bottom like sand, a sky-blue milky middle stretches like the horizon, and it’s topped with creamy foam and rice puffs like clouds. A relaxing drink like you're on the beach, sipping away your worries.

At the end of the meal, they gave a complimentary decorated fruit platter. A quiet flex that showed off their knife and artistic skill. Each slice felt intentional, and it was a graceful way to end the bold fusion journey.
