my first kueh tutu in 22 years.and i didn’t know it was highly abnormal for a singaporean to not have tasted them before, until my fyp mates stared at me in pure disbelief when i told them.

my neighbour-in-black had the same reaction, so off we went to buy some after lunch. i was so intrigued by the look of them and so curious about everything in the small stall, that the auntie did a demo for me when she knew i’m new to these delicate little fluffy things. yah, she asked if i’m a local too.

kueh tutus are a little dry, i think. but it makes a pretty good light snack. and of course, the production process was really cool.

but there, am not a bumbling local anymore.
