Today’s weather was exceptionally good. Slight overcast, cooling and best of all, not humid. Anyway, met my little Brother for some dessert hunting after I saw the feature on TV. It’s along Chinatown’s Temple street at a shop called Wei Xiang Yuan.

Their signature dessert: Mango Sago with Pomelo.

The mango puree is smooth and full of the wonderful mango frangrance. (The reason being that the stall owners used Honey Mango from Thailand). However, the dessert is not too sweet such that it will make one “gilard” after a few spoonfuls. The sago and especially the pomelo add flavour and nice texture to the dessert. The slight sourness of the pomelo also complements the mango’s sweetness, good balance. Totally worth the 3 bucks.

Out of curiosity, my Brother and I decided to try another of their dessert: Egg Pudding /w Ginger. Both of us agree that it’s an acquired taste. It tastes like chawanmushi but with more of the raw egg taste and sweeter. Luckily we got the one with ginger… else I don’t think I can down pass 2 spoons. Not my kind of dessert.

I highly recommend the Mango Sago with Pomelo, skip the Egg Pudding.

Location: Mei Heong Yuen Dessert - 67 Temple Street
