Haioreum Korean Cake with Green Tea

So, these Cakes with Green Tea are very much like the Corn version. A variation on the theme, as it were. The texture was identical, the same dense donut disk with a medium thickness filling with soft lumps. The filling was identical filling, sweet with a hint of cinnamon, with the bits adding a little flavor but not much. After reading the package, the filling seems to have some amount of nuts in it. The cake part was very lightly flavored with green tea, but definitely had that green tea shade. Ross and I both liked these as much as the corn version. Rydia, who was trying this form for the first time, gave it good reviews.

Score: 4/5 - Very similar to the earlier Cake with Corn, equally enjoyable.

Kimbo Chinese Chive Pasta Cake

I generally like Kimbo as a brand, but I think these chive cakes are slightly inferior to the Foodhut ones. They're much bigger, and thus don't stick together as well. The flavor is still scallion-y, but has a hint of spinach/cabbage flavor. The dough is a little bit less gooey, I guess? A tiny bit of flakiness? It's just OK. They definitely didn't fry wonderfully, but I think I can do better. Still, I will buy the Foodhut ones instead. (And no, these do not have the same filling to dough ratio as on the package!)

Score: 3.5/5 - Not as good as the smaller, squishier Foodhut Chive Dumplings.
