Brunei Darussalam Teochew Mooncakes Posted on 31/08/200815/12/2023 By Reedz [mp_row] [mp_span col=”12″] Teochew style mooncakes are different from the usual mooncakes that we are used to seeing in supermarkets and specialty shops. These mooncakes have a flaky skin which is similar to puff pastry. The filling is typically yam instead of the usual red-bean or lotus paste. Different as it may be from traditional mooncakes, E of Foodie Tales and Senor Pablo will agree, it simply ROCKS! They cost B$5.00 with yolk and B$4.50 without. Fantastic little snack for breaking fast this ramadan. To order, call 8779930 or email [email protected] These are the deft pair of hands which magically produce wonderful gastronomic delights… Skilled hands with lines to tell they’ve been through a whole lot… Yes, these hands belong to my mother… the best mum in the whole wide world! I love you mummy 🙂 [/mp_span] [/mp_row] Share this: Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window) LinkedIn Share on Telegram (Opens in new window) Telegram Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window) WhatsApp Share on Reddit (Opens in new window) Reddit Read more
