Mooncake, is pastry surrounded by crushed soy bean with salted egg in the middleW which is a bit of poetic licence cos' Mr Patten actually liked Macanese egg tarts best but it didn't sound half as good as Mooncake.
And I just like the sound of it. Its a bit better than the Wong Kee key company. (After you've been here a couple of years you're not meant to laugh at things like that, but I always do)
