Last Time Hor with 115 Tang Shui

What to Expect

Ever wondered what it takes to serve up your traditional dessert favourites? Come meet Mr Toh Hoi Yip, the second generation owner of 115 Tang Shui, as he goes down memory lane with tales of his youth growing up assisting his mother at the stall (and earning the nickname Tang Shui Zai or Tang Shui Boy from regulars). Watch how they meticulously prepare classic desserts like almond, sesame, and peanut paste with natural ingredients, hand-ground using an old stone grinder, starting their day as early at midnight to ensure these desserts are ready by 7am!
