Chinese Cookie Sampling
This is a little stash of sweets I brought home from Chinatown East (Broadview and Gerrard).
On the left, we have something that was billed as “banana cakes”, but they’re pastry filled with goo that doesn’t really taste like bananas. I was feeling adventurous; not sure if I’ll finish them.
On the right, huge almond cookies! There’s probably a half-pound of lard in each. Mmmmmm.
In the front, crispy little biscuit curls from a Chinese grocery. I might get addicted! They have a lovely honey-citrus taste.
