This is a household name in traditional mooncakes but gauging
from the various types that we try, we suspect that the
standard has dropped. The pastry is generally thin but dry
to the taste. The Red Bean filling is so dry that it becomes
powdery to the bite. The Green Bean Paste gets 1-chopstick
as it provides a nice change for its salty filling. The
usual mooncake with Lotus Seed Paste (with or without yolks)
gets an acceptable 1-chopstick rating. The Assorted Nuts
with Chinese Ham fares better (2-chopstick) as the filling
has a good flavour and the nuts are so tightly packed together
in the mooncake.
