The first stall that’s a must-visit is Kunafa Tak Viral. Here you can try the dessert that has taken the internet by storm, the kunafa, which is a rendition of a popular Turkish dessert. The mouthwatering dessert, layered with filo pastry, comes in flavours such as the OG Milk Chocolate ($10), Biscoff ($14), and Pistachio ($13).
Another popular dessert you can try at the fair is tanghulu, sold at Bingtanghulu. The sugar-coated skewered treats come in various fruits, including Shine Muscat grapes and strawberries.
