Cassava pudding @ PHO 24

I am not a fan of Vietnamese food but the desserts here are delicious and there is a good range of desserts here compared to other Vietnamese restaurants.

Cassava pudding:
I was surprised this pudding was served hot and not cold.
The taste of this dessert was actually more delicious hot because the smell was much more fragrant.
Cassava is a root vegetable and in some South east countries they slice them in thin slices to make cassava crisps.
It can also be grounded and made into a dessert such as this pudding.
The sweetness was just right and if it was not sweet enough there was some syrup beside it.

Tender braised beef @ 嘉漁魚旦粉

Initially this place was listed as closed on OpenRice, but now the status has been changed back to normal.

Braised beef belly:
The braised beef was really tender and soft.
There was strong aniseed spices and cardamon.
It was really good the beef was sliced into thin slices.

Seaweed soup:
The seaweed soup was quite nice but there was a fair amount of MSG.
The seaweed was quite clean and did not have much sand.

Pandan Choux Creme @ Jusco Kornhill plaza

Found out there was a pandan flavoured choux creme so came here to get it.
Luckily there were still two left so I just got one.

Pandan Choux Creme:
The colour of the pandan cream in the middle was almost bright green!
It was quite messy to eat because the cream was quite heavy and the choux bun was really light.
I tried the pandan cream which did have pandan taste but the taste of the whipped cream was stronger so the filling was a bit too sickly.
Luckily the sweetness was not too sweet.
