Dessert for all occasions

From cart to kiosk: It has recently upgraded to selling their goods to a proper stand-alone island kiosk starting in Midvalley Megamall.

BEFORE there were air-conditioned shopping malls and fast-food dessert joints, small-time traders would walk through neighbourhoods selling their home-made treats to residents.

Some of them sold traditional Malaysian delicacies like Nonya kuih, and they carried with them the common red and black Nonya kuih baskets or containers for food storage. Today, these items and food continue to evoke nostalgic memories of the “good old days”.
