Gold is no longer reserved for the finer side of dining.

The egg tarts, flecked with 22-carat edible French gold flakes, are priced as follows:
- One piece: S$6
- Four pieces: S$22.80
- Six pieces: S$28.80
The item is part of the teahouse's Chinese New Year menu.
While it all sounds very fancy, the gold flakes are unlikely to contribute anything in terms of taste, if past experiences are anything to go by.
With aesthetics in its favour, however, it'll make a pretty nice visiting gift this Chinese New Year.
