Old School

Some of us took a walkaround at lunch last week, and stumbled upon this retro traditional candy shop near Aljunied MRT. The greedy one among us couldn't resist buying old school sweets that bring nostalgic tears to her eyes.

While we were at it, we took a little tour of the back kitchen, and found 2 uncles industriously moulding tao-sar piah by hand, what a rare sighting! They looked so cute and hardworking! 20 years later, you'd have to pay admission to see something like this, if any of these shops survive at all.
