love all the kuehs from bengawan solo. everything is so perfectly made and so traditional and authentic. not too sweet and not sickeningly rich. the ingredients always taste very fresh. very high quality but also at very high price. seems to be the most expensive kueh shop in singapore at the moment. but also the best! love their ambon. saves me the trouble of making it and it is so well-made. highly recommended. wish their baked kueh lapis was cut bigger as their tiny slice is not satisfying.…Read More
