Saturday was a hot day, so I wanted to buy some cooling dessert for my family.Since I was at Chinatown, I decided to go to Er Gu Dessert to buy some desserts. The stall aunty was friendly recommending which dessert for cooling purposes.The Almond & sesame paste had a nice aroma of almond but no sesame. The taste was also more of almond than sesame flavour. The paste was smooth and somewhat starchy. The green bean soup smelled of dried orange peels. There was really dried orange peels in the soup

I was searching high and low for Er Gu Dessert as my I was told to find San Gu Instead of Er Gu. After a big round walking and exploring the entire Chinatown Complex Food Centre, I finally get to see Er Gu Dessert. The stall was spacious and simple, with not many things stacking up. Neat!As I was ordering I noticed that they had pasted a decal on the transparent shelf that wrote something like "Officially Listed In OpenRice". . Seems very close to heart. The sesame paste looks different than wha

Black Sesame Paste(+) Very thick and rich, maintaining the smoothness and not viscous like typical sesame paste.(-) The fragrance of the black sesame was lacking and that failed to stimulate my appetite before trying.(-) Wanted the almond paste but it was sold out, so this was a substitute.Verdict: 6.5/10Barley with Gingko Nuts(+) Very thick barley soup, almost like porridge, just the type I have been hunting for!(+) The barley beans were boiled till very soft, so swallowing them was no problem.

This stall serves a few types of traditional hot desserts like the red bean soup, green bean soup, sesame paste, peanut paste and yam paste. I have tried most of these desserts and I liked it. This time, i decided to have the peanut paste for the first time. The peanut paste was rather thick in texture with an intense taste of peanut. The level of sweetness was just right though i do prefer it to be slightly sweeter. All the desserts are priced at $1.50 for a rather small bowl. The overall tast

Very heavy rain. With no where else to go to, just stay in Chinatown complex to look for dessert while waiting rain to stop.Orders 3 different desserts : Black sesame paste, peanut paste, almond paste ($1.50 each ), as it has been a long time since I last eaten here. Wants to try as much as possible.The peanut paste tastes the best. The black sesame paste is tasteless, just feels like starch, none of the black seasame. The almond paste is ok but feels that not enough the almond's taste.

I had mango sago for dessert. this mango sago is very rich in mango flavour!~ Every poon, there will always be plenty of sago in it. When you put it in your mouth, the sago seems to have the mango taste too. And, when it slipped down your throat, you will feel like keep wanting to eat more as the mango do not make you feel tired of it. It seems to make you more hungry! There is still more dessert there.

I went looking for this stall after done with my lunch. I decided to go with red bean paste amongst their other desserts for $1.40. It was served in a small bowl. I was done with it in 8 mouthfuls and craving for more. I enjoyed the old school taste of red bean served in a sweetened thick gooey soup. There was quite a handful of red beans in it and these red beans were of the right texture, not too soft nor too hard. But, paying $1.40 for such a small bowl might be a bit pricey though the quali

This dessert stall is strongly recommended by a good friend. This stall offers traditional desserts like yam paste, red bean paste etc. I ordered a bowl of red bean paste. The red bean taste was thick and fragrant and they cooked the red beans nicely and not too meshy. It has got a stronge taste of dried tangerine too. The sweetness level was just right. This is a healthy dessert to complement a meal.

This dessert stall serves quite a number of different hot desserts like tau suan, black sesame paste, peanut paste, red bean soup etc. I decided to go for the black sesame paste which is my favourite paste to order at dessert stalls. The black sesame paste is quite thick and fragrant and it is very rich in sesame taste. However, I felt that it is slightly more sweet than I would like it to be. If it is just slightly less sweet, it will be perfect.

Black sesame soup has always been my favorite local desserts. I decided to give this stall a shot. This stall offers different type of hot desserts like sesame paste, peanut paste, red bean soup, green bean soup. It is only $1.40 and it is very good quality. This could be a place for you if you are looking for a dessert to complement a meal. Recommended for takeaways, I need to add 20cents. Anyway, service was prompt, the place is a great place for a quick dessert bites with friends. Next time

Bought home some of the hot dessert from the dessert stall, luckily there were still quite alot of varieties left when i was there. Over the years, whenever i am at chinatown area, i will always go and have a bowl of hot dessert. The dessert are thick, hot, fragrant and the price is cheap too.

I never fail to stop by at Er Gu for the black sesame paste if I am at this area. Have been eating from this stall more than a decade and my frequent buy also included the almond paste and the peanut paste. Thankfully their standard didn't drop and it the paste were thick and not runny and the aroma of the black sesame were fragnant too.

Red bean soup has always been my favorite local desserts. Cooking at home is pretty easy but it is still rather time consuming. I have been looking around for a good bowl of red bean soup in the food centres, one of the best that i ever tried is at the Commonwealth Food Centre, a humble stall solely manned by an elderly auntie. I decided to give this stall a shot. This stall offers different type of hot desserts like sesame paste, peanut paste, red bean soup, green bean soup. It was nice but i
