Chinese Dessert - Part 2

Chinese Dessert - Part 2

Located along Liang Seah Street and is normally crowded in the evenings - Ah Chew Desserts. So we will mildly satisfied after Ji De Chi, so we crossed over to Ah Chew.



What better to compare then to order the Durian Mango Pomelo. In contrast to Ji De Chi, this was way cheaper $4.80 v $6.50. Alas, this was an even bigger disappointment. Mango plus durian is really a potential diarrhoea mix for the weak stomach. In fact, it tasted more like mango sago with durian pulp. The most annoying thing about this dessert was the small ice cubes which you would end up chewing half the time.



After two durian dessert, we opted for something mild - Egg drop with Chestnut. Fen had 2 comments after eating this. 1) Too Starchy 2) Too diluted and chestnut too chunky.

My overall verdict based on the durian puree at least, Ji De Chi is a clear winner but I would certainly be back to compare more desserts between them.

Chinese Dessert - Part 1

Chinese Dessert - Part 1

Venturing down Liang Seah Street one would notice the 2 dessert outlets Ji De Chi and Ah Chews on both sides of the road. In this entry we shall review Ji De Chi and the next we shall review Ah Chews.



We put 2 desserts to test. First up is the all time favourite Tang yuan, 汤圆 in ginger soup. It was generally up to standard but the only let down was the peanut flavoured Tang Yuan, the peanut was kind of harden in one huge block.



Next up is a Singaporean favourite - Durian Puree with pomelo Sago. I recall that I once said that this was the best durian puree which I have tried. Alas, this time they served me durian puree with frozen durian pulp. Apart from the frozen pulp, the durian puree was indeed satisfying.

We were kind of upset with this episode and decided to cross over to Ah Chew's. To find out what was our verdict? Read our next post.
