After trying the savoury Taro pudding at the TST opening I was hooked.
I love this  Matsutake and taro pudding.

It has a strong five spice powder aroma with a starchy texture.

There are chunks of taro, Matsutake and carrots in it.

A great  Chinese radish pudding because it has lots of Chinese radish and morel mushrooms.

The cross section is so pretty when you slice it.


It tasted delicious as well and natrual because there was a good balance of radish and flour.

Yet another creative way of presenting CNY puddings.
The ones here are in a musical box which plays music when you wind it up.
In the box, there were a radish pudding and a sweet one.
The radish pudding was loaded with so much Chinese radish that it crumbles when you slice it but deliciously sweet because of it.
The sweet pudding was sticky and chewy.

I have always wanted to try the bagels from R&R Bagels and The Reuben was just perfect because The Butchers Club Burger are using their bagels for it.
The Reuben is loaded with corned beef and Swiss cheese, kosher sauerkraut, guerkins sprinkled with caraway seeds.
Every bite was loaded and the sauerkraut and Guerkins balanced the heaviness of the beef and cheese.
There were so many layers of Swiss Cheese.

In terms of packaging, I think the packaging wins because it is gold and luxurious as a gift.
The Chinese radish pudding is loaded with so much Chinese radish that it falls apart when you slice it so I suggest freezing it beforehand so it gives a cleaner cut.Anyway, it tasted really sweet because there were so much chunky Chinese radish pieces in it and preserved sausage.

I went here because all the noodles come in this strong Chinese  herbs broth which tastes a little bit like the Singaporean bak kut teh.
There are lots of noodles to choose from and different toppings.
I went for the spicy chicken, spicy beef and we had two different noodles.
I love the black beans in the spicy sauce and be warned, this was very spicy.

The noodles were ok but the star is definitely the soup.
Noodles looking like parpadelle.
Knife cut noodles.

The joint is quite cramped so expect to be cosy with other people.

At the Royal Plaza hotel Cake Shop, you are bound to expect creativity.
These dishes are all cakes!!!

Recently I saw someone post this edible diamond that is made of Jelly by the Cake Shop so I plan to try it later.
For CNY, I got the Red dates pudding with longan which is huge!!
It is visually pretty with three layers.
What it looks like cooked.
it wasn't too sweet with a strong red date taste and it had a good chew to it.
