This place is famous for egg tarts but every time I came past there was a queue.
But this time I came late at night and there was no queue and surprisingly the egg tarts were quite hot too.
As well as egg tarts they had a few items that were pandan flavoured which are my favourite.
The swiss rolls were HUGE! I have never seen swiss rolls as big as this, the diameter was at least 7inches by 5inches tall!
It is a pity you cant see how huge these swiss rolls are but in one of the reviews the slice is too big that you need to split it in half!!

Egg tarts $5:
The egg tart was still hot when I ate it.
The pastry was quite thick but there was lots of flakey layers and air in between so it was quite light.
Luckily the buttery taste was light, and the egg filling tasted like custard which was good but I just didnt like it too sweet.

Pandan cake $12:
Although the egg tart was too sweet, the sweetness of this was just right, and the pandan flavouring was nice and strong.
The cake was extremely soft too.
The size of the cake was quite big too, about 4 inches in diameter.

I was quite surprised that the prices here were quite expensive especially in Kowloon City.
