The real custard buns. Where to find them.

Check out my previous post - fried salted egg custard buns to know what I meant by the REAL custard buns.

As I said before, I was on the hunt for the real custard buns. So I have found them!
In Singapore, the only place so far to eat them is at Lao Beijing (please patronise the Plaza Singapura outlet, they serve better food than the one at Orchard Central). I ate them during their tea time buffet, but please note that they change the menu for their dim sums so these custard buns may not be served.

I recently went to Bangkok for a short holiday trip and to my delight, Bangkok is a custard bun paradise. The first time I tried the custard bun was at MK restaurant where they sell mainly steamboat and also dim sums (will give a review on MK restaurant soon). They called them cream buns instead and they taste sooooo well, definitely not the salted egg version.

For people staying in Baiyoke sky hotel, the tallest hotel in Thailand, you are in for a treat! Their buffet breakfast is really good with a wide variety of food available. Of course, they serve the hot steamy yummy custard buns. If you want to try the fried version of these custard buns, please have the dinner buffet at the 79th floor. They serve a wide range of dim sums and they have oh so good roasted pig, duck, meat and large large prawns. I would definitely recommend Baiyoke Sky's buffet breakfast and the dinner buffet at the 79th floor (Chinese restaurant).
