The last time I was in Macau was in 1988 with my parents... Was there for less than 1 day so have no deep impression... A bit apprehensive about going there... My wife suggested that we go over but I want to find out more before deciding...

Me too leh...wanna to find out more b4 we go there. Heard from my fren said that we can take a ferry to Macau from HK. But in HK, there r so many ferry ports. I aso dunno which port to take from. Moreover, the ferry tickets aso not cheap either. SGD$120+ for 2 persons on 2 ways.

Donuts has been around in confectionery shops for so damn long but not many people buy... Now people open donut shop only people can queue like 5 hours for donuts... hur.gifhur.gifhur.gif

 

 

But not all things are made equal.

 

But queuing 5hrs is a bit over.. 20-30mins is still ok

 

Aiyo , I 'll rather queue for the 'bak-kua' then the round roti with sugar...

At least bak-kua can wash down with beers [inlove][laugh]

 

no one is forcing anyone here.

 

Bak kua need to queue meh? If it need queuing, then I'm not buying coz it's going to be more expensive and quality is not as good as before.

 

So people complaining about the donuts, do they queue for other things? [sly]

 

Some of those food store which need to queue 1 I also siam far far away . Waste time never mind , wait the food is average or so so only then [furious]

Something that I will never do... It's only donuts...

 

so what do you do?

 

Do you ever queue for anything? The very thing you queue, someone out there is going to say the same. It's only ______ sly.gif

 

Just my views on something that's I think it's not worth queuing for... I can see that you do queue up for your donuts...

 

 

I queue, but smartly and not blindly [sly]

Already mentioned last time... may be a business tactic (ie slow down the preparation process so that there's a queue). Having a queue means its good no??

 

So its a self fulfilling prophecy [confused]

 

Same as the way property prices are moving...

 

Maybe developers' top management (no names here hor) "buy" condo at high high prices and then "sell" to their friends at higher higher prices to create market value? [lipsrsealed]

Donut factory is not worth the trouble. Dough wise, KK win hands down. Flavour wise, even Dunkin is better.

 

For those going to HK and if u have not tried KK, do yourself a favour and try the original glazed (or stripped if you like it less sweet).

 

BTW in HK, the famous egg tart shop is called Tai Cheong and it's on Bai Hua Jie. Sadly it is not as nice as before, the pastry is less fragrant/buttery, though the queue is still as long.

 

If you are in Wan Chai vicinity, look for the shop called Kum Feng and have the ice tea and bolo-yao (bolo bao with a slab of butter in the middle).
