while i was searching around my house's kitchen for food, i saw a packaging that was classy and unique. it looked like the cover of jitsy's Donne poem book... green with gold wordings. ancient looking. and i was like 'what's that?'
turns out to be egg rolls! from macau. i mean, egg rolls only...so why do we have to package it until so nice.
this is no ordinary egg roll. my gosh. the first surprise came when open the inner plastic packaging (5 egg rolls per plastic packaging, 10 in the whole box), the buttery smell of egg rolls just waft into your nose and refuse to go. and you take one out, and my oh my. you can see the depth of each layer, unlike our usual chinese new year egg rolls.
bite into it and you feel like you're eating a thinner version of the delicious crust of egg tarts, it crumbles into your mouth, exactly where you bit it. the rest of the egg roll remains perfectly intact.
i feel like the eggs were have just been burst open and are spread all over my tongue. and melted butter and sugar was added.
heavenly.
