All Things Salted Egg

Was expecting a massive lava flow, just like any of their salted egg crossiants. But anyway, this brick has won half the battle with its rich salted egg flavour but I could definitely do more of it. 🍞

Seems like Sin Lee has also joined in the salted egg wave with their rendition of salted egg yolk burger. Priced at a affordable value of $12, it comes with a huge slab of fried chicken thigh and then blanketed over with their rich salted egg yolk sauce. Such generous portion at $12, such good deal worth trying!

Pleasantly surprised to see this on the recent refreshed menu at Swensens. Here's Salted Egg Sundae $11.80 - salted egg ice cream with waffles cubes, topped with salted egg pieces and butterscotch. The salted egg was rather subtle. If you have tried Tom's Palette's version, this is just bland. Then again, if you prefer a lighter salted egg flavour, this is for you. 🍦

The salted egg flavour was rich and fragrant, together with layers of light black sesame chiffon and black sesame frosting, topped with salted egg yolk custard and salted egg crumble. With a balance flavour of salty and sweet, it was an interesting eat. But for 9 bucks a slice, maybe not for the second time. 🍰

The salted egg custard was more like our beloved liu sha, which I felt was a tad too sticky and creamy, but very delish. The toast, though fluffy and crisp in the middle, was way too hard and chewy on the edges - I felt like I was biting on tyres. And what was maple syrup doing on that? Way too jarring. Lots of promise here, and would be great with some tweaking.

🍟 Shoe string fries blanketed over with home made salted egg sauce, buttered cereal and spring onions. Pretty addictive.

Salted egg crossiant from Seven Oaks, Johor. Probably the first ever cafe that started this salted egg hype.

Anyway, I kept it over night and had it for breakfast the next day. And was pleasantly surprise at how 'liu' the salted egg filling is still. Overall it's thick and gao 😹👍🏼 |

From 10th Feb onwards, it will be available at all Antoinette outlets but for now it's only at Penhas.

Da Paolo's crossiant was on point, flaky and burst with crunchiness to the last bite. But the salted egg filling was a let down, it taste like salted egg plus salt.

🙊 Going at $1 each or a box of 6 and 10. Decent but I think having 3 alone is enough is make you jerlat.
