NoBrand Mooncake

On Thursday 4.aug.22, went out to Golden Chopsticks and 126 Kopitiam coffee shop to buy food for the Elderlies and ourselves.

*** Red Bean Double Yolk ***

3 pm - bought one red bean double yolk mooncake MYR 13 from 126 Kopitiam coffee shop and a mooncake dough pastry at MYR 3 and I saw a similar one at golden Chopstick coffee shop selling for MYR 2.40 nett. There is no brand name and no info on the packaging so I don't know who made the mooncake.

3.04 pm - cross section. I think the salted egg yolk is from a chicken and not a duck. I like the taste of the red bean fillings.

I just asked the seller, does this pastry have fillings and the reply is yes. I didn't ask what fillings. Turned out that the filling is shreds of coconut flesh with pandan flavour. Hahahaha 🤣😂 I am not used to this type of fillings in a mooncake dough pastry.

*** 126 Kopitiam Sri Petaling ***

11.38 am - bought some veges only from the chap fan stall at 126 Kopitiam to be eaten with the the previous day remaining biryani rice : brinjal, okra, celery, cauliflower and one braised egg at MYR 6 net.

Also bought:
1. Wanton noodles small portion MYR 7.50
2. Hainan char drink hot MYR 3.30
3. Soybar cold soy pudding x 2 x MYR 4

*** Ho Family Kitchen eatery ***
1. Egg tart x 2 x MYR 2.50
2. Siew Bao x 2 x MYR 2.50

*** Golden Chopsticks ***

11.30 am - his lunch of the chapfan veges he just bought and from the fridge, the siew yuk and basmati rice. He bought 3 packs of chapfan at a total of MYR 20 for the Elderlies and himself and a pack of iced cham at MYR 3 nett.

    1. This is unbrand mooncake so MYR 13 is supposed to be budget price already. I am sure you will receive mooncake gift. Yes among all the different fillings, red bean has the lowest price.
