Egg Tarts @ Tai Cheong Bakery, Hong Kong

Did some research and found that this place serves awesome egg tarts! The bakery itself goes way back, more than 50 years if I'm not wrong. The route to the bakery however is treacherous >.<  We had to hike up super steep slopes but thankfully it was located just a few roads away from the MTR station. I think the walk helps to gear you up in anticipation of the wonderful egg tarts =P Bad point: you feel hungry after making it back to the main road =.=
  

Piping hot egg tarts

The freshly baked egg tarts were wonderful, the smell absolutely fragrant, the tart buttery, the egg custard silky smooth and eggy <two thumbs-up!>
  
We actually returned to the shop again on our last day in Hong Kong just to sample those divine egg tarts once more <drools thinking about them now> I can guarantee no place in Malaysia makes egg tarts as good as Tai Cheong's. Apart from egg tarts, the bakery also sells a variety of buns and Chinese pastries. They also have packaged items such as Hong Kong egg rolls which we bought as souvenirs.
