Singapore is well known for its hawker food and it only takes some research and perservance to locate some of the popular local favourites. This sweet peanut dumpling store nestled away in the busy hawker street in Chinatown is one of them. At night, the road is converted into pedesterian walkway with tables and chairs everywehre. We came here in search of some late night dessert when the other dessert joints in Bugis have abandoned us. We chanced upon this store and it specialises in dessert dumplings. Unlike conventional dumplings that is served in a sweet rock sugar or almond milk broth, their handmade dumplings comes with a dessert soup made out of wholesome peanuts.
My companion opted for the original version while I was adamant on having the almond milk. I was thankful that I stay loyal to my childhood favourite because after having a taste of the peanut soup, it reminds me nothing more than just peanut boiled in some creamy and sugary water. However, my companion enjoyed it, so I guess it's a matter of preference. The handmade dumplings were lovely, the dough was very chewy and the filling was sweet, but all in all not outstanding. Verdict: Cheap dessert joint for your late night sweet craving fix.
