Absolutely love their traditional chinese pastries! Opened since the 1920s, Tong Heng Confectionery has a longggg history for their awesome pastries. They currently have 2 outlets, the main one located in Chinatown which provides seating and a takeaway counter in Jurong Point. 

I love their egg tarts ($1.40 each) the most, best eaten fresh and warm from the oven. But I also like the tarts after keeping them in the fridge the whole night :D What won me over was their smooth, wobbly egg custard that wasn't overly sweet. To me, the crusts of egg tarts are equally important. Compared to those egg tarts with thick hard crusts that you can get from normal bakeries, I definitely preferred Tong Heng's version of soft flaky crusts. They also have coconut egg tarts ($1.50 each) for the coconut lovers out there. I'm not really a fan of coconut so I'm not sure about how it tastes though.       

Another of their pastry in my "to buy" list is the 叉烧酥 (BBQ prok crisp). Priced at $1.30 each, the filling is moist and well flavored, plus they are generous with BBQ pork! Even after leaving them overnight, the crust was still soft and flaky. I prefer my 叉烧酥 with flaky crusts more than buttery and crumbly kinds.     

Tong Heng's also known for their 老婆饼 (candied melon crisp/wife cookie), which I have yet to try in the 20 years of my life T.T I've never bought Tong Heng myself, usually it's my uncle (working nearby) who sends it to my house and this time it was my sister who happened to pass by the shop. Definitely gonna try this next time when I get to choose what I want!
