6. Healthier mooncakes
We’ll spare you the specifics, but mooncakes are sinful treats that, most unfortunately, pack on the pounds. This time round, Xin Cuisine Chinese Restaurant offers healthier mooncakes for you to revel in the spirit of the Mid-Autumn festival as you keep tabs on your weight.
New to its collection of snowskin flavours are two low sugar variations, namely the Low Sugar Red Lotus Seed Paste with Peanut Praline and Low Sugar White Lotus Seed Paste with Banana Apricot Praline ($58 for 6 pcs). The former comes with the crowd-pleasing red bean paste, while the latter’s sweetness comes from bananas imbued with the faint tartness of apricots.
