A chat with the owner's father revealed that this began as a passion project by a young female baker-entrepreneur with a single-minded dedication to preserve the kueh-making craft, while taking traditional kueh to the next level with quality ingredients and perfected techniques.

My favourite of the trio is the Kueh Salat ($2), for which I'm nursing a craving right now. They've got the texture & flavour of the glutinous rice down pat -- moist, sticky, and fragrant. The top layer of pandan coconut custard was delightfully creamy, like a pudding. The uncommon Kueh Putugal ($2) boasts a thin, pliant skin and its sweet banana filling has a nice bite and isn't mushy at all. Something perhaps more interesting would be the Kaffir Lime Butter Cake ($2.50), infused with fresh lime juice and zest and fragranced with kaffir lime leaves. I like how its invigorating scent perfumed each bite of the fluffy, buttery cake.
