Kwan Kee was a Michelin-listed rice cake shop from Hong Kong that has since shut down, but was revived by an apprentice in Johor Bahru and now has a stand at 313@somerset's Food Republic in Singapore. They are known for both the bowl cake and sponge cakes above (in both white and brown sugar variants), and also have a rather wide range of other rice-based treats. To be sure, these are sweet, unlike the savory ones at Ah Kong Wan Kuih. And admittedly, the taste is mild enough that I wouldn't have known about that Hong Kong Michelin listing had no one told me. I suppose the appeal is the texture, as the rice cakes are smooth and bouncy.
