Full review is up at http://www.nahmj.com/2016/02/11/ji-xiang-ang-ku-kueh-everton-park-outram-singapore/ Most must have known about the famous Ji Xiang Ang Ku Kueh, one of the most talk about in town. It is located at Block 1 of Everton Park. My family has been enjoying this Traditional Chinese delicacy ever since we know them. I don’t even remember when it was. It must have been many years ago. Lol. Importantly, the quality has been consistent and has maintained over the many years. By the way, Ang Ku Kueh when it is literally translated, it is known as Red Tortoise Cake.Ji Xiang Ang Ku Kueh outlet is very much an unassuming shop. If I am correct, they occupied 2 units at the ground floor of Everton Park Block 1.Traditionally, Ang Ku Kueh is in Sweet Bean 甜豆沙 and Peanut Paste 花生. My personal favourite is the Sweet Bean Paste. The best part of the Ji Xiang Ang Ku Kueh is the skin of the cake is thin. And I like the sweetness level. Perfect for my tastebud.The other lesser known traditional flavour is the Salty Bean 咸豆沙 Ang Ku Kueh. Those who like sweet and savoury food such as the salted caramel would probably enjoyed this.The remaining flavours available at Ji Xiang Ang Ku Kueh are introduced laterr. There are Coconut 叶子 Ang Ku Kueh, Corn 玉米 Ang Ku Kueh and Yam 芋头 Ang Ku Kueh. Yam is the other flavour that I enjoyed.There is also a seasonal flavour, durian.All its Ang Ku Kueh is priced at $0.80 except for the Yam at $0.90 and Durian at $1.30.For more reviews, visit http://www.nahmj.com

Where can you find extremely soft ang ku kueh skin and the wholesome top grade filling?The confectionary is none other than Ji Xiang at Block 1 Everton Park with its traditional taste and delicate chewy skin in lovely pastel colours.In Hokkien, which literally translated to "red tortoise cake" which is made from steamed glutinous rice flour filled with different types of ingredients such as roasted peanut, mung bean paste and the latest filling being durian.The different types of pastries are cooked prior before they are hand moulded individually so that the ang ku kueh skin would remain chewy and thick.This confectionary was established at Everton Park since 1989 with a humble beginning of only two common flavours of peanut and mung bean paste.There are eight different flavours distinguished in different skin colour available at this confectionary including yam, coconut, salted bean paste and seasonal fruit durian.A good ang ku kueh has soft chewy texture and the skin does not stick to the teeth.Here are the three selected ang ku kueh which I bought.Yam filling in light purple, grey with salty beans and the most flavourful of all, the durian filling in light yellow. From the Peranakan family ritual, ang ku kueh became substitute the shortage of live turtles.These kueh are dyed as a symbol of good fortune and auspiciousness. The imprint and the shape of the kueh is to signify longevity. Distribution of these Ang Ku Kueh for baby first month for blessing of the new born and elders birthdays for longevity (harap panjang umur) in Baba families.Attached is a photo of an impression of the ang ku kueh design from a mould.Photo taken from Peranakan Museum.The current ang ku kueh priced at 80 cents per piece and the durian at $1.30 each.The confectionary is opened from 9 am to 5pm from Mondays to Saturdays.

This has been our family's all time favorite ang ku kueh over the years. My mum only eats ang ku kueh from Ji Xiang. It is popular and famous not for nothing, and it definitely have a loyal following of long time customers.The skin is soft, thin and chewy and it blends with the filling with every bite, unlike other ang ku kuehs where the skin and filling are like a seperate entity. Our favorites are the traditional peanut and tau sa flavors. Both the tau sa and peanut is very fragrant and smooth, and melts in your mouth.

Ang Gu Kuay anyone? When translated from the hokkien language, it literally refers to "Red Tortoise Dumpling". The default color of the Ang Gu kuay is red as it is an auspicious color in Chinese Tradition.Recently, I got a chance to taste the fmous Ji Xiang Confectionery located in Everton Park. The Kuehs were packed in a styolfoam box illustrated with a Tortoise cartoon pushing a cart. Indeed, these Ang Gu kuays were legendary. Its skin was thin and soft. What's more the peanuts flavoured Ang Gu Kuay that I had its peanuts grated and was finer instead.Having tried its peanuts, I would like to make a trip there and try other flavours especially when I'm a fan of Tau Sar Ang Gu Kuay!

For almost 16 years this Kueh shop has been up and selling the traditional Chinese Ang Ku Kueh (means red tortoise dumpling in Hokkien). And the reason why the shop has been operating for almost two decades is none other than the high quality of the Kueh.Firstly, one would be spoilt for choices as there is a variety of types of filling such as Coconut, Peanut, Yam, Salted Bean as well as exotic flavours like Durian ^.^Secondly, the Kueh skin is awesomely good, tender, thin, chewy (like Mochi) and yet does not stick to the teeth. Lastly, the filling is very generous and pricing is indeed reasonable! The current popular Mochi would offer even more exotic flavours but I definitely would opt for this instead. The taste and texture of this AngKuKueh outwin every bit of the most Mochi I have tried. Why pay double or even triple the price for a minute Mochi? Furthermore, the Kueh has the unique pattern of a tortoise with the Chinese character 寿 (means longevity) in the middle Long Live AngKuKueh lol
