\nThree views of the same item from the grab \u2018n\u2019 go prepared food section near the register at Little House Caf\u00e9, 90-19 Corona Ave in Elmhurst, Queens. I assumed this would be the sweet Malaysian kueh (or kuih) that I had enjoyed elsewhere, in this case a pandan (green) and palm sugar (brown) rice flour\/tapioca flour dense \u201ccustard\u201d, but I was pleasantly surprised by the salty component of the pandan layer in contrast to the sweetness of the palm sugar layer.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re shown flanked by eggy almond wafers, crunchy but not crispy, and a satisfying textural contrast to the kueh.<\/p>\n

These folks definitely have their own spin on Malaysian food \u2013 and I like it!
