I want to be a Tu Tu Kueh seller one day…

TTK

I was at Boon Keng yesterday to visit my grandmother and as I wondered what food should I bring her, I came across this stall selling Tu Tu Kueh (TTK). TTK is a local snack made of rice flour and different kinds of fillings to choose from – coconut or grounded peanut!

What struck me was the uncle made sure that each and every TTK was pressed to shape and he stuffed a lot of fillings into them. In today’s context, where the price for everything has gone up, it was a relieve to see that his TTK are selling at 3 for $1.

Maybe one day, I will be a TTK seller too.
