Those familiar with Hong Kong chaa chan tengs (tea restaurants) know that part of their attraction lies in the bustling vibes, the cosy booth seats and the joys of tucking into fuss-free and comforting eats.
Here in Singapore, diners can experience a slice of that ambience at the newly opened Tai Cheong Bakery at Holland Village — sans elbowing strangers.
The brand's first dine-in concept comes a year after the opening of its takeaway kiosk at Takashimaya, where long queues often form for their famed egg tarts.
At the newly opened chaa chan teng, diners can tuck into authentic Hong Kong-style eats from bolo buns to macaroni soups, alongside outlet-exclusives like the indulgent Durian and Cheese Tart!
Here are our top picks from the menu:
5. Durian & Cheese Tart, $3.60
You might have heard stories about Tai Cheong Bakery’s legendary egg tarts, but don’t let that stop you from trying something new.
We recommend going for the Durian & Cheese Tart, which are exclusive to this Holland Village outlet.
The same butter cookie-like crust now encases a mix of premium D24 durian pulp and cream cheese — a potent and incredibly shiok combination that any true blue Singaporean can appreciate.
