Address

63-67 Temple Street

An old dessert shop on Chinatown's Temple Street. The draw is Taiwanese-style snow ice: milk ice shaved into thin ribbons that vanish on the tongue. Mango is the best seller, and there is a chendol version with coconut milk, palm-sugar syrup and green pandan jelly. Warm Cantonese desserts too, such as peanut, sesame and almond pastes and ginger egg pudding. It is one of the designated Singapore Chinatown Heritage Brands.
