What is Mid-Autumn Festival all about? For me, the Mid-Autumn Festival is about getting together with family and loved ones to celebrate the festive season. It’s a tradition to play lanterns, gaze at the bright and round (full) moon and also eat mooncakes 🙂
There are generally two types of mooncakes; traditional baked and non-baked mooncakes or better known as snowskin mooncakes. Don’t ask me which do I prefer cox I loved both 😬 While most hotels, restaurants and bakeries offer both the baked and snow skin mooncakes, Oriental Group of Restaurants offers only snowskin mooncakes and its available in two flavors; White Lotus w Single Yolk and Durian Mooncake.
To be honest, I haven’t really heard of Oriental Group’s mooncakes cox there weren’t any promotions or marketing for their mooncakes. However, I got to know that their mooncakes are always sold out very fast.
This year, I managed to get a box of the snow skin mooncakes from Oriental Group 🙂
The mooncakes come in pretty simple packaging and no fancy mooncake gift boxes.
White Lotus Paste with Single Yolk
The White Lotus Paste with Single Yolk Mooncake is made using premium grade lotus seeds and sunflower seeds are added in for that nice crunch.
Durian Mooncake
Durian Mooncake is not made entirely with fresh durian pulp but with a blend of white lotus seed paste. I would say it’s good for those who doesn’t really like the taste of pure durian pulp as its mixed with white lotus seed paste, making it easier to eat.
The snowskin mooncakes are freshly made daily by Oriental chefs and they are available at all Oriental Group outlets. However, they only make limited quantities of mooncakes daily. So, it’s better to purchase them early or call the restaurants to make reservations.
The Snowskin mooncakes can be purchased at all Oriental Group of Restaurants outlets :-
