That only means that the significance of these bakeries are becoming more apparent, and every new find tucked away in our neighbourhoods is worth a mention. Cue Ng Kim Lee Confectionery, an old-school bakery with more than 60 years of history.Â

Their Kaya Cake ($1.20) is a steady seller among patrons, and it features a top layer of pandan chiffon cake, and a bottom layer of kueh. Some online reviews point to the fact that the pandan flavour is relatively strong and sweet!
