Da Sheng Hong Kong Pastry (已結業)

Shopping around the chinatown, we notice this shop selling traditional cakes. One item that caught my eye is its version of cup cake.

Egg tarts are one of my favourite snacks and the one sold here are one my favourite version as well. Especially like the custard filling as it is full of nice thick fragrant from the eggs and milk used in making it. The texture of the filling is very smooth ang not too watery. The crust outside it is very crispy and not too sweet. By having a cup of hot beverage to go along with these egg tarts are certainly very satisfying and delicious.
