Mei Heong Yuen (Anchorpoint)

Heard of Tang Shui? Tang Shui can be considered as a chinese dessert. Unlike cakes, biscuits and chocolates, tang shui are usually in the form of water based and usually have benefits of reducing heatiness in your body.

Mei Heong Yuen is located in anchorpoint at alexandra. This particular shop is rather different from its neighbour as this shop has an oriental flavour decoration (take a look at their wooden table and chairs and you will know why).

This particular shop is pretty small thus chairs and tables are packed very close together in order to include the maximum number of chairs and tables. This tightly packed arrangement actually brought quite a bit of dis comfort to its customers (imagine seating very near someone whom you do not know).

Their tang shui varieties is not alot however those common ones you will find it there. Eg: almond hu, sesame hu, peanut hu, ginko barley, etc). These tang shui are served in a small pot (another oriential feel item as they have some chinese drawings on the pot itself).

One of their tang shui speciality is the mango dessert with strands of pomelo and tiny sagos. This combination of dessert gives a very refreshing fruity after taste, which i loved it very much.

Beside tang shui, mei heong yuen also sells some tim sum. Types of tim sum includes chee cheong fun, rice dumplings, yam cake and my favorite pumpkin cake.

Pumpkin cakes is actually quite rare nowadays, probably due to the tedious work to make it. Reason on why i love it compare to the yam cake is that pumpkin cake has leaves a sweet after taste. Try it and you will know what i mean.

Priced from sgd$2 for the tang shui and tim sum. Their portion is pretty small thus will not really recommend to eat it as a main course.
