tai cheong egg tarts 泰昌蛋挞

after a nice beef brisket noodles treat at 联记面家, we had some nice kungfu tea 功夫茶 at our hotel room.

we were intending to take the fast ferry at 2.45pm to cheong chau. anyhow we decided to go earlier to central, so we took a walk along the mid-level travellators.

tai cheong bakery 泰昌饼家

one of our first visiting place was tai cheong bakery 泰昌饼家 at lyndhurst terrace.

this the original shop set up in 1954. chris patten, the former hong kong governor, is a fan – famously proclaimed as his best egg tart ever. it is part of the tao heung group.

& of course tai cheong bakery has set up shop in singapore, with its first restaurant at hollandv recently.

my daughter bought some recently from the hollandv outlet, and it was very good really. the pastry was crumbly & tasted good, and the custard was not too sweet.

tai cheong egg tarts 泰昌蛋挞 bean curd drink

my friend bought some bean curd drinks also. that i think was not good, dilute & sweet.

then we psssed by the few daipaidong 大排档  at stanley street. don’t think will have opportunity to come by & try for this trip. anyway not a must do thing for me.

we followed the mid-level travellators towards IFC, and walked along the IFC Mall till the sign shows “to all ferries” & walked to the central ferry terminal 5 to catch the ferry to cheung chau island.
