Chinatown Tan's Tu Tu Coconut Cake is located at a prominent space of Food Republic - the entrance, easily spotted by shoppers who walk pass Food Republic or by patrons who enter the food court.Tu Tu Kuehs were all painstakingly prepared by a lady under the heat from the steamer. She was dressed in those traditional chinese costumes with an artist cap like what we seen in the 60s of the television programProbably due to its better location, it had drawn quite a number of attentions and even with Q card pasted by the side of the counter, seeking customers' cooperation in queuing up.One can choose from 3 flavours of Tu Tu Kueh, Original (plain), peanuts and coconut fillings. Bought a box of 10 Tu Tu Kueh, consisting of 5 Peanuts and 5 coconut flavours. The Tu Tu Kueh cooled down rather fast in the environment and was not really as good as our impression of "Tan Tu Tu Kueh". The flour seems abit rougher and dry with each of them sticking securely to the base (the piece of leave), making separation rather difficult and usually end up having them torn apart with fillings came out. Cost: $6 for 10 in a box

I walked pass Westgate basement foodcourt and saw a Tutu Kueh kiosk. Normally, I only see tutu kueh selling in Pasar malam. Their tutu kueh cost 70 cents each. I ordered 5 pieces of tutu kueh at $3. I had to wait for more than 5 minutes as the tutu kueh was freshly made when ordered.The coconut tutu kueh was good with pandan leaf aroma. The filling was sweet decicated coconut, it was fresh and sweet. The outer kueh skin was tasted like the texture of bread. The peanut tutu kueh was also good with pandan leaf aroma. The filling was crushed roast peanut with sugar, not too sweet or over roasted, just right. The outer kueh skin was also tasted like the texture of bread.Overall, the tutu kueh was good and their quality was also similar to pasar malam ones and cost more.
