i felt like having ang dau chui for tong sui so here it is. it's something i enjoy and i found out that there are three types of ang dau chui that is being served. it depends on the duration they cook it. i've came across ang dau chui which its beans are a lil bit on the hard side. this gives more texture to the ang dau and you can munch on it. the second would be the soft ang dau. the beans are all soft and somehow it feels like eating porridge. the third would be ang dau gar (ice blended ang dau). i personally prefer softer ang dau chui and ang dau gar. since i don't have a food blender, i would have to settle for the former. anyway, it's nice. oh ya, i added some milk to substitute santan and it turned out fine too :)

*taiping's ang dau gar at rex is worth the try!
