Mei Heong Yuen Dessert is a famous dessert stall in Chinatown and has opened a branch in ION Orchard. Not many will know that it is owned by the boss of Farmer Brand groundnuts 农夫牌花生.
Mei Heong Yuen Dessert is famous for their smooth peanut, walnut, almond and black sesame paste. They are also recently famous for their shaved ice (ice kachang).
Their outlet in ION Orchard has few seating capacity and it is likely that you need to wait a while before getting a seat. If you are in a group bigger than 5, I think you can forget about coming here. Go to their Chinatown outlet which has much bigger capacity.

| Dried Beancurd with Ginko & Barley $3.00 |
There is no queue when I ordered the Dried Beancurd with Ginko & Barley. This is because their bottleneck is really their sitting capacity. And our order got served to our table immediately, no waiting required, other than the waiting for a table.
The Dried Beancurd with Ginko & Barley was average. Thought that it could be better as it was diluted and with too few beancurd skins. Compared to Ji De Chi, thought that Ji De Chi one was better.
To conclude, I would not write off this place yet. Try it's peanut, walnut, almond and black sesame paste and shaved ice (ice kachang) that has garnered good reviews online. If you are coming in a big group, go to their main outlet in Chinatown. Of course, if you happen to see this post, let me know what is the must try!
