Well, I decided to come and check things out myself. Couldn't help to notice that the huge lineups were no longer there but since I haven't had anything sweet all day, I decided to take a flyer on one of their two new éclairs tailormade for Chinese New Year.
(N°133) Eclair Kumquat - Just in the nick of time for Chinese New Year season. Kumquat in Cantonese is called "Gam Gat". The word "Gam" rhymes with the Cantonese word for gold, while "Gat" rhymes with the Cantonese word for luck.
This is very nice. Very smooth and rich orange cream in the middle and love that kumquat confit and glaze on top. Very good balance of sweetness and acidity. I like it~
