Most must have known about the famous Ji Xiang Ang Ku Kueh, one of the most talk about in town. It is located at Block 1 of Everton Park. In case you don’t, I am sharing it with all in this post.
NAHMJ and family has been enjoying this Traditional Chinese delicacy ever since we know them. I don’t even remember when it was. It must have been many years ago. Lol. Importantly, the quality has been consistent and has maintained over the many years. By the way, Ang Ku Kueh when it is literally translated, it is known as Red Tortoise Cake.
Ji Xiang Ang Ku Kueh outlet is very much an unassuming shop. If I am correct, they occupied 2 units at the ground floor of Everton Park Block 1.
Traditionally, Ang Ku Kueh is in Sweet Bean 甜豆沙 and Peanut Paste 花生. My personal favourite is the Sweet Bean Paste. The best part of the Ji Xiang Ang Ku Kueh is the skin of the cake is thin. And I like the sweetness level. Perfect for my tastebud.
The other lesser known traditional flavour is the Salty Bean 咸豆沙 Ang Ku Kueh. Those who like sweet and savoury food such as the salted caramel would probably enjoyed this.
The remaining flavours available at Ji Xiang Ang Ku Kueh are introduced laterr. There are Coconut 叶子 Ang Ku Kueh, Corn 玉米 Ang Ku Kueh and Yam 芋头 Ang Ku Kueh. Yam is the other flavour that I enjoyed.
There is also a seasonal flavour, durian.
All its Ang Ku Kueh is priced at $0.80 except for the Yam at $0.90 and Durian at $1.30.
NAHMJ Verdict
NAHMJ has high regard for Ji Xiang Ang Ku Kueh. Thin skin with generous amount of fillings with authentic taste are the characteristics of Ji Xiang Ang Ku Kueh. And the sweetness level, perfect, though I won’t be surprise, some may still find it a little too sweet.
