Xi Le Ting serves up old-school desserts that have recipes that are being perfected since half a century ago.
You would spot an auntie behind the stall scooping endlessly, but do not expect her to smile much.
Recommendation: please be precise and clear with orders, and don’t be surprised if some desserts are sold out early, early lunch.
There are four options at the stall, namely the famous Cheng Tng ($1), Green Bean Soup ($1), Red Bean Soup ($1) and Sweet Wheat Porridge ($1). Takeaways are priced at $1.20.
The refreshing Cheng Tng contains plentiful of ingredients from white fungus, dried longan, barley, dried persimmon to ‘pang da hai’ (boat sterculia seed). Love that this is very nostalgic-tasting served in a traditional porcelain bowl and is super affordable.
