Ordered one piece of kueh ambon for tea break at $1. This has got to be one of my favourite (if not most favourite) traditional kuehs! Kueh Ambon is a type of indonesian kueh that is made from ingredients such as tapioca, coconut milk, flour, eggs.etc There were holes in the kueh and was quite dense inside. It is also known as honeycake. Indeed, it is sweet but not too sweet. Texture is soft too. If you have not tried it before, I recommend you to do so

Bengawan Solo serves one of the best malay kuehs which are worth eating every now and then. The coconut over this kueh was fresh and the texture of the kueh was perfect. It was bouncy, not too starchy or sticky. It had a rich gula melaka flavour and was not too sweet! A great afternoon snack!

Other than the delicious kuehs, the pandan cheese cake is really nice. The pandan cake itself is just a normal sponge cake, but is very fragrant. The cheese part is in the cream, where there are shreds of cheese. The taste of cheese is very light, and please do not be mistaken that it is a cheesecake. It costs $7.50 for a whole cake, but they sell in slices too.
