It was the weekend and boyfriend wanted to find some strange rock park in this area. But first food. As we were in the middle of public housing, there was not much choices so we came to this cha chan teng. It wasn't very big and but it was busy with all the residents in the area.Menu is in Chinese only. There is no English and no 10% service charge. They offered sets that include a drink. But it seemed a number of people just ordered whatever that wasn't on the menu and they made it for them!I h
Menu is in Chinese only. There is no English and no 10% service charge. They offered sets that include a drink. But it seemed a number of people just ordered whatever that wasn't on the menu and they made it for them!
I had the French toast with chicken wings ($32) from the afternoon tea set. The tea set menu had a number of unusal combinations. Unlike most places, that bring you a jug of syrup, this place pours in on for you and they are generous. So much syrup! The French toast was fairly decent and there was peanut butter in the middle. So many don't do that now. The chicken wings were well seasoned and very crispy coating and juicy meat.
Boyfriend had the Fried Chicken Steak with rice and Black Pepper Sauce ($46) also from the afternoon tea set menu. It was literally sizzling when it arrived. Portion was huge and there was so much sauce. They really do not skimp on the sauce. Lots of black pepper was in the sauce. The chicken was juicy and well seasoned.
As we were leaving, we noticed a lot of people were buying pineapple buns. Not just one but bags of them. They had a counter of baked items from their kitchen. That is when we noticed a few newspaper clippings on the window. Apparently this cha chan teng once owned the Pineapple Canteen food truck. Apparently their pineapple buns are fairly popular. But from the display of bakery items, it was something called a Pineapple Cake that caught my eye.
One slice of Pineapple Cake was only $6. It was a beautiful fluffy soft Taiwanese castella cake with a strong eggy taste. On top was a crunchy sweet layer of the topping that goes on a pineapple bun. This was so good. The soft cake combined with the crunchy topping almost like a crumble was fantastic. Never had anything like it! Most likely not be back as it's quite a walk but definitely one of the most interesting foodie finds in a long time!
