As Good As It Last...

It is said all good things come to an end, and today will mark an end to my journey to the neighbouring land of Johor Bahru. However, as heavy-hearted as I sound, there are times when good things do last. And these good things I am referring to are the traditional Cantonese pastry that Chun Qiu Tang offers in Taman Sri Tebrau, opposite the famous “Da Ma Market” in JB. What's so good about them is the fact that pastry is baked on the spot and served fresh.

I am never a fan of such pastry as my throat never takes them too kindly; however my first bite into the char siew pastry completely convinces me that even a sore throat is worth it.

The egg tarts though, were a little bit disappointing. The crust is unlike the fluffy ones that I have tried before in Dim Sum restaurant in Perth, but those hard ones that I dread.

The traditional carrot cake though oily, was fried to perfection. Although might be a bit too sweet for some, I simply could not resist the crispy sides of the carrot cake.
