It is one of those things where we’re of different opinions.
I prefer curry puffs from Old Chang Kee and Polar Puffs and Cakes while Yang prefers those from Tip Top. Sigh, I still don’t get it. What’s so special about Tip Top curry puff? Starting from the crust all the way to the curry, nothing excites my taste buds. Whether it is eaten piping hot or at room temperature, I wonder why others raved so much about this Tip Top curry puff. The crust is rather dry and the curry is so-so with a sourish tinge sometimes.
I like Old Chang Kee’s the best. :) The buttery flavour of the well-fried crust is so satisfying and the curry filling (got the usual potato and hard-boiled egg chunks) is so nonya and sufficiently moist! Polar Puffs and Cakes’ curry puffs used to be my favourite too (the crust was the flaky version and its curry was so delicious!) but its standard has dropped over the years. Sigh!
Pffft! I’m not the only person who thinks Tip Top curry puffs are the best. Check this out:

I also vouch for Tip Top puffs. Best in AMK, and some say Singapore!
can’t let this pass especially when it comes to food…tip top’s curry puffs so far’s the best…;) tried the new flavour of chilli crab from old chang kee – no kick in taste!
