Work, play & Tutu cakes
Group work, class, group work, from early morning until 5 in the afternoon. But then it was time to balance it all out, so we went shopping, had a delicious varieties of Asian food for dinner and did a little more shopping. I spent about 70 SGD alltogether and am loving Singapore student life yet again!
By the way - I have had a lovely dessert over here a few times now. A warm spongecake called Kueh Tutu. The name was derived from the manufacturing process, because the steam made a sound like a little train... :)
From the beginning there were no fillings in these Chinese sweets but now they are made with shredded coconut among other, which is my favourite. What a craft - everyone, locals or not were standing in line to buy them from a lovely auntie, and every single tutu cake was made with the calm certainty that years of experience give you, before they were served on pandan leaves.
