Kuehs and Snacks is said to be the first place in Singapore to sell Black Herbal Kueh AKA chi kak kueh or shu ke kueh (鼠壳粿). This fragrant kueh, traditionally eaten during the Chinese New Year season, is made with herbal leaves from China. You can choose from three fillings: herbal leaves, green bean, and black sesame. Get it in a box of six for $14.
