Tong Sui

Tong Sui in Cantonese literally means Sweet Water. Red bean and barley in evaporated milk - MYR4.80 - my friend did not quite like this.

White Fungus and Lotus Seed - MYR4.80 - both white fungus and lotus seeds are hard. Not going to eat at this random restaurant in Berjaya Times Square again.

  1. I know a lot of people who love these - I'm ok with them. Will not go out of my way to enjoy them. Cooling, great for health too.

    1. You mean tong sui in general and not just these two?

  2. I've never eaten red bean+barley in evaporated milk.. Hung dao+yi mai in sang lai? Hmmm.. Weird combination but maybe some will like it.. I still prefer my plain red bean in santan, hehe..

    1. The thing is this is just the milk alone with red beans and barley, not milk with red bean soup.

  4. Red bean in evaporated milk.. I think the owner desperate to create something "unique"..
