for the final round, ate mango pudding, chin chow, and cheng teng...must really write about the mango pudding at this point...SUPER NICE! and i really mean it...lots of mango pulp used...creamy and fragrant...with a layer of evaporated milk on top...the authentic mango pudding! haven eaten this type of mango pudding in a long long long......long while! muahaha...the chin chow was also quite nice...not too hard...then the sugar water not too sweet...with more of the chin chow flavour...on the whole a very fulfilling meal for me! luckily din eat lunch...else will not have the space needed to accomodate the food...hehez...so full that i din eat dinner...best right?
