Are you ever one of those people who walked by those long lines and moan, "pfft! I bet it tastes the same as those Japanese cheesecakes you find in Chinese bakeries, no queues there suckers!".
Well, we were one of those aforementioned people and decided to stage a CHEESECAKE SHOWDOWN between Uncle Tetsu & Chinatown Bakeries.
A friend of ours was nice (or fanatic) enough to queue for about an hour and he brought it back to kitchen stadium for a face-off (Iron chef reference here)
We had another friend who never-before tasted any of both and proceeded to, of course, blindfold her. The results of the blind-test -- my fellow cheesecake enthusiasts -- are staggering.
The following is what she said when she first tried the Chinese Cheesecakes:
"hmmm... abit dry..."
And as she finished the previous morsel of cake then went on to taste a mouthful of Uncle Tetsu's cheesecake:
"THIS IS UNCLE TETSU" --and proceeded to remove her blindfold as a new-born connoisseur.
We all then proceeded to feast upon the cake. The story ends.
** We would give Uncle Tets a 4.5 stars! **
