I've heard that Tan Hock Seng sells the best traditional chinese pastries in Singapore! The first thing that attracted me to check out this shop is because their pastries are handmade fresh everyday, which is quite rare in Singapore nowadays. The small store is always packed with the working people during lunch hours and there are many who will even drive down and takeaway the pastries! As I was near Far East Square, I drop by the little shop and bought home a pack of beh teh sor and pepper bisc
The first thing I did was to break open the beh teh sor, which contains a generous amount of filling! The crust is flaky yet crispy and I love the combination of salty sesame and malt sugar filling
Another popular pastry here are the pepper biscuits, which stands out from the rest by being packed with a filling! It has around the same taste as the beh teh sor with the addition of a lingering sweet peppery aftertaste!On my second trip, I bought home a pack of the salty tau sar piah and the wife biscuits! There is also the sweet tau sar piah but my family prefers the salty one.
Anyway, the tau sar piah is soooo goood! My dad couldn't stop popping it into his mouth! The filling is just perfect!
I don't recall trying the 'lao po bing' before, which has wintermelon filling inside. I don't really fancy the taste and much prefer the other pastries!
