Call it however you want. According to Andrine, I have to try them when I'm in Sitiawan...it's a must! So what do we do? Try to get our hands on some during our short trip there. Asking around, our host manage to get his friend to take me to a biscuit shop that he usually goes to...but as usual for most places in Sitiawan, no address! - except that the name of the place is Cheng Li Biscuit Shop (tried Googling and couldn't find any info!)
Kong Peah dough with filling - flattened and waiting to be baked
Kong Peah Press Machine
Fast action - into the clay oven it goes ...
All baked! I just loved the generous sesame seeds ... but I suppose one shouldn't eat this if you're with your boyfriend. Sesame seeds are rather unsightly in between our teeth! Hahaha....
Your choice : Char Siew Pork or onion bits (bottom) sold at RM1.20 and RM1 respectively (not sure if the price has gone up by now) ...I somehow prefer the onion variety though it's void of sesame seeds. Both pastry had the same smokey flavour. Biting into them brought such a delight - breaking through the first crispy layer of the pastry and then landing on the sweet fragrant filling. I'm glad I got to taste them ... not sure if Cheng Li's Kong Peah meets Andrine's standard but no complains from me!
