Fried salted egg custard buns

I have always been a fan of custard buns and the authentic custard buns are very hard to find! I am still on the search for these authentic custard buns. So what exactly is this authentic custard buns? Many (and I emphasize on this many), MANY people have this misunderstanding or misconception between custard buns and the salted egg custard buns (or more commonly known as liu sa bao) we see today.
Below is an attempt to differentiate the two

1. COLOUR. Custard bun's colour is a light yellow while liu sa bao's is a yellow-orange colour because of the salted egg yolk.
2. TASTE. Custard bun's taste is much sweeter compared to liu sa bao's.
3. TEXTURE OF THE FILLING. Custard bun's filling's texture is very smooth and nothing much like the little lumps you get in a liu sa bao.

Xin Wang Cafe had the real custard buns before (their steamed ones were bad but the fried ones were good). However, they had a change of menu and they removed the custard buns from their menu since then. I was so upset that I emailed them, asking for the reason and requesting them to use back their previous menu. Mega fan I was of them back then and now I am an anti xin wang person. Haha.

Anyway I tried googling for these custard buns and chanced upon a review, recommending Man Fu Yuan's custard buns. For the liu sa baos we normally don't have it fried so I was probably deceiving myself when I saw that they offered fried custard buns, thinking they weren't the liu sa kind. How wrong was I but I would give it a 6.5/10. 0.5 because it came in the fried version. 

Man Fu Yuan is located at Bugis Junction, Intercontinental Hotel. The outside of the Restaurant has a small counter, looks like a place for a high class security guard. It totally didn't look like a restaurant to me. They are sold at $12 for 6 with a 7% GST for takeaways. You have to get a minimum of 6 pieces (not able to mix steam and fried). The bag and card was quite nice though.

PS. Would love to hear from people who know places with the real custard buns! Till then, the hunt continues!
