Although the number of visitors per house will be dropping this CNY, I am determined to not let that deter me from my feasting. Did I ever tell you how much I love my CNY goodies? This year, ONE°15 Marina Sentosa Cove came out with The Auspicious Trio, which consists an exotic bundle of 3 different flavours - Organic Pineapple rolls, spicy Hei Bee Hiam Pineapple Tarts and Parmigiano Reggiano Cookies for S$78+.
Decided to give it a try because feasting for me pretty much binging on goodies and letting my friends and families know which brand is the best this year. Hahaha. Here's my ranking of the goodies!
1. Parmigiano Reggiano Cookies
This is my absolute favorite. It looks rather unassuming but it was one of the most delicious cookies I've had this year. In fact, I think every house should have at least 1 box of it. It is a nice fusion and a yummy addition for all the cheese lovers. Because it is also not the traditional taste we are used to, I would think this is a good snack for our everyday chomps too!
2. Organic Pineapple rollsFor the healthier folks, you can try out the organic pineapple rolls. Compared to other pineapple fillings, this version isn't as sweet. At the top, you can also find a dash of Himalayan Pink Salt which gives the usual sweet treat a savory taste. Personally, I find the saltiness a little odd (maybe because I have a sweet tooth and is too deeply rooted in the traditional taste for it). So I brush the salt away for mine (what a waste, I know!) I am sure some people would appreciate the taste as it is.
3. Spicy Hei Bee Hiam Pineapple TartsIn terms of appearance, I thought this set had the cutest appearance. I was also the most excited for this since my fav. CNY snack is the spicy prawn roll. Sadly, this didn't quite rub me right. It wasn't spicy enough for me so it felt neither here nor there - not a pineapple tart and not a spicy prawn roll. For me, it is a combination gone wrong, but never try never know right.
If you are someone who is more adventurous, I would recommend stocking up 3 different flavours to try. If you just wanna follow me, stock up on the Parmigiano Reggiano Cookies. There is even a 20+% discount if you are a member of the ONE°15 Marina!
