Yam is y(u)m- new crush @ Mr Bean


Sunny


Pearly bandung aside, hits the spot (appraisal) the new tuber to hit the blenders. {Adzuki bean, next thing Starbucks coming up is yam}. 


Adventurous Mr Bean strawberry cream cheese pancake (Mother's day probably, a salute with the shade of love), are taro soya milk and gula melaka soya pudding. 


Taro Soya Milk (Without Pearls) (SGD 2.30)


The taro soya milk can be served hot, warm or cold. Its a rich,  tingling purple. Decadently invigorating, the taste is thick and muddied at first, the fragrance of yam wells up a little. It is later washed with a thinning, beany flavour of soy. Mellifluous. Taro is the endearing way of calling yam. Or yam is white and mountainous, taro the sweeter, accurate term.


Gula Melaka Silky Soya Pudding (SGD 2.20) 

Local, rustic (perhaps household feedback on what Singapore delights), chendol, bandung, Mr Bean now gula melaka, gula melaka the strapping sugar to its pudding made from soy. To coffee, the amber syrup, and milk; to cakes, vintage-inspired. Unexpectedly, the taro soya milk was sweeter than the gula melaka soya pudding. Whilst sweet, the sugar had a richer, darker taste, a topping for the pudding eggy but silken. Keep refrigerated or consume on the day of purchase before the curd settles. It is set with nata de coco.

P.S. Soya, a filter that makes the food enhanced, complexed. Soya ice-cream, soya latte, soya pudding, the taste is inapprehensible. So many layers. Now add taro, spill the gula melaka. The shroud of Mr Bean. Besides the potential, lighter on the health of course.
