Parents must be heart broken that brothers are not in talking terms ☹️ hopefully they can work together again and bring their parents legacy further. All the best to both…..I want to eat Ang Ku Kueh now 🤤

I’m sure Jack and Kelvin would have watched this video and read all the comments here. I would just like to say to them - screw the haters and do what you want to do. It is not easy to be in the f&b business in Singapore, and it is totally alright to have your own perspectives and choose to run your businesses differently. Nobody is right or wrong. Everybody can be a winner. And if you ask me who is the biggest winner, it is the consumer. Thanks to the brothers, we now have more options when it comes to AKK, as well as this video which has re-ignited our love for AKK!

I feel Jack is a honest person and very upfront instead of going one big round. But usually ppl who are more vocal, outspoken will tend to be targeted by many and deem as mean or nasty. Even IF he was arrogant, he can. He worked so hard for it to maintained and preserved the quality and heritage of it. Not anyone can do sth like that for decades of years. Some places after many yrs, quality dropped. You have to give credit to them. Tbh im nt even an akk person but i only Ji xiang one i eat. Kelvin is a nice guy, outgoing sociable and friendly person. His akk is also nice :) I dont see anything wrong with both brothers choosing what they choose to believe and sticking by it. One sticks with tradition and one with new change. If cannot work tgt then just go separate ways. Do your own and shine, nth wrong with it. Just wishing both Ji Xiangs all the best ❤ One day maybe both brothers can be harmonious again 😊

Jack sounds like a purist which shows pride in his work, deeply commendable to uphold a traditional confectionary. He strongly emphasised quality control and lower prices which ultimately suits the customers' needs. I wouldn't eat a rainbow cake for its looks. I don't think CNA gave a fair shake to Jack who might be a quieter, hardworking type who's less adventurous. Nothing wrong with that. The amount of screen time for Kelvin, who has more modern ideas might be interesting from a content perspective, but when it comes to food, the manual process does tend to provide better quality.

@eddietan6139 6 ай бұрын

I totally agreed with you. I have patronised JX Everton for more than 20 years, they still make the akk the traditional way. The Bugis outlet akk although is fanciful but the taste and texture are somehow different even though its the same recipe. I'll still support the Main shop for the tradition taste and Jack for keeping the tradition quality of akk. On the side note, CNA didn't give Jack more air time maybe because he wasn't eloquent enough. Its a bit unfair though.

I agree .. Honestly regardless of screen time , you can tell Jack is dead set on keeping things in the traditional way over expanding and profits which I salute. In the current state of things , it's extremely difficult to refuse to cater to the trends and it's profits. Kelvin is more open minded and wants the business to expand and generate more profit which I don't feel is wrong either. It's just a clash in mindsets and honestly I don't see them ever reconciling for as long as the business continues. Also , I initially thought there might be a chance of reconciling until I watched the end part of the video where Jack takes a shot at kelvin by indirectly referring to Kelvin's side as the one that is damaging the reputation . Based on his 'bought from the 2 wording' and his facial expression , you can tell Jack has a deep hatred for Kelvin's way of doing business using the 'Ji Xiang' name.

Quality & taste is way more important. Only single stalls can uphold & maintain the strict quality & consistency required to maintain the high standards of heritage food. Same exact thing applied to Bak Chor Mee stall Tai Hwa (with an "H") (by the 2nd brother) at Crawford Lane who only has one location, and is able to consistently maintain Michelin Star standard every year since 2016 when it first got the award. The other Tai Wah (with a "W") by the 3rd brother & now his son at Hong Lim is not as good, and even worse at his other branches. Strict QC from ingredients all the way through to the thickness of the pork slices, and how long it gets scalded to make it just so tender, to the noodles, sauces, vinegar, etc, day in & day out without fail is a great testament to Crawford Lane's Tai Hwa (with an "H") commitment to excellence & consistent quality through & through. They really deserve their Michelin Star because they do right by their customer by giving the best quality bak chor mee CONSISTENTLY.

I’ve never tried the Everton one, but I’ve always liked eating the Bugis one, and I love that they have innovation. The brand also looks so much more classy. But I can see the beauty in staying traditional too. I sense that the brothers have very different perspectives about business and it’s a shame that the older one seems to take it very personally. It’s okay to be rivals as long as the brothers don’t take it personally and push each other to the next level.

This is an excellent documentary, thanks CNA! Jack focuses on tradition and quality. Kelvin focuses on uplifting the heritage food, reinnovating and expanding its appeal. Both no wrong. Some comments say that Jack comes off as arrogant. I see it as him being protective of the family business. Also that hes definitely not as good as talking, or giving interviews as Kelvin is, or as savvy as Kelvin. And tbh i do think that Jack seems like the sort who would be too proud to admit his mistake or say sorry. Hope they make up though, its a family biz. This documentary makes me crave for a jixiang akk.

@anneeli3089 6 ай бұрын

We used to love eating ang ku kueh from Everton but it is so far away from my house that I bought them only when I happen to be in that part of Singapore. Then when the Bugis outlet opened together with the various pushcarts, we didn’t enjoy them as much. I used to think that it was just a case of diminishing marginal utility, that we didn’t like them as much because we ate it more frequently and got tired of it since it became more accessible. It was only when Jack took out that advertisement to say that they were not the same, it was a lightbulb moment for me and indeed when we ate the Everton ang ku kueh, all the old feelings came flooding back and my love for it has rekindled 😂

@Shingoz82 7 ай бұрын

There is nothing wrong with either of them. Some people prefer heritage, while others prefer innovation/fusion. I can understand if the Everton branch feels wronged if they face complaints due to the customer's wrong conception. I disagree with the younger brother when he says there is no difference between the 2. Firstly, yes, it's the same recipe, but the QC is definitely different? Secondly, he claims to innovate a lot more, so it could be that some customers don't like the new flavours?

@milla4633 6 ай бұрын

Though there're very slight differences in taste & texture, the kuehs from the 2 shops share a lot in common. Both come from the same recipe after all. Cooking/food is an art, it is very personal and subjective. We should enjoy this well-made kueh and appreciate both shops' uniqueness. Thus it is totally redundant to say 'if it tastes bad, call the other shop'. This breeds unnecessary animosity. If the brothers can realise that they are 2 professionals with different approaches to the original parent brand, they will be amazed at how much they have blossomed. They are carrying on the Ji Xiang name in different yet wonderful ways and making their parents proud. Both shops are the creme de la creme in making ang ku kueh. So there is no such thing as 'tasting bad' when you're talking about the 2 best shops. Neither is better than the other. They're both insanely good.

Funnily enough, I actually prefer the younger brother's akk to Everton park's. I started eating Everton park's akk more than a decade ago. I wasn't a fan of akk but Everton park's akk really changed my mind because of its thin chewy skin and fragrant and well-made fillings. However, the Everton park's outlet was far for me so I only bought them when I happened to be nearby. When I saw their stall in star vista some years later, I was thrilled. It was as good as I rmb. I don't know during that time, is it Everton park akk or kevin's akk? Anyway, a few years ago, jixiang started selling their akk in pushcarts or popup stalls at v convenient locations. Whenever I see that there are special flavours like pistachio etc, I knew it was the younger brother's akk, and if there wasn't, it was EP akk. And... I prefer the younger brother's akk! Maybe it's also due to the choice of flavours but I will always buy their peanut akk no matter what other flavours I buy and I still do find the younger brother's one nicer. 😅 Not too much of a diff overall though so I would say both brothers really make their parents proud in terms of making good akk. But Jack is right. All parents would like peace and harmony in the family. Hope one day the brothers can really come back together and continue their parents' legacy. But if not, I think it's still ok. Sometimes, it's really better to work separately if ideas are too different. Thank you CNA for doing this episode! Really enjoyed learning more about jixiang!

The way that Kelvin Toh says that "making it by hand" will ensure the quality of the pastry remains the same runs contrary to the mainstream rationale behind automation. Besides cutting labor costs, another benefit of automation is consistency in quality. Maybe I'm missing something in his way of thinking, or he has really good employees with high EQ who never have a bad day that affects their work. Reason why I swear off working in F&B or hospitality industry is that I'm more likely to get into an argument with the customer than smile graciously at them. lol Anyway, I have a sudden craving for Ang Ku Kueh.

Frankly still prefer the traditional shop at Everton. However, since they started expanding aggressively, they have raised the price a lot but their quality standards have also fallen.

Stick with Ji Xiang @ Everton Park. Only $1.20, unless you wish to have one with Durian filling that comes with a premium price. They taste better & you pay less. 😋🤤👍🏻
