No dragging though. Should sound like an angry "Tok".

I ate this before, don't you find it a little plain, the sauce is the key. Reminds me of ketupat that has been squished and kept for a while.

The sauce is a bit sweet for moi. The rice cakes also have 2 types, and moi prefer the chewy type. Moi prefer to dip kimbap into the sauce than eating this snack by itself.

Well, I tried this rice cake with sweet and spicy sauces while touring in SK, however, I never seemed to like it.

No leh, I am from Singapore, we are more Southern Chinese. The 年糕 I am familiar with, is the one with sugar, the round brown short cylindrical food.i.e. the sweet type.

Northern style is more savoury.

Like how they consume Tau Huey, sweet vs salty
