Maybe it's age; I do find myself craving for a snack even after meals, especially if I am outside. Sometimes, it would be ice cream; other times, it might be cheng tng.
There was a queue and the aroma was tempting! Despite her age, the elderly staff was experienced in handling the making process of the taiyaki, with every motion timed perfectly, and performed deftly. A visual treat, doubt.

Happy to see she was quite liberal with the red bean paste!
Finally my turn to order! Four flavors to choose from (red bean, chocolate, cheese and mochi red bean). Being a traditionalist, the red bean it shall be!
Piping hot taiyaki in this paper bag! Extra care shall be exercised in case butterfingers me caused to drop it on the floor; with so many people in Ngee Ann City, you would not likely catch shy me picking up a dropped item from the floor and continue to eat it.
Look at how pretty this fish was! It was still hot, felt heavy with what appeared to a thin crisp for the outer shell. I am a fan of Crayon Shinchan and you know what's his favorite way of eating taiyaki!?
He will eat it from the butt, by pressing all the filling out, into his mouth! Disgusting it sure was. I am not as crude; I shall leave the best for the last and target the parts with likely the least filling. Starting with the tail. Batter was chewy yet with an enticing buttery aroma.
