I finally found time to visit one of my favourite shops selling CNY cookies and as you can see, they have rows and rows of cookies for you to choose from! In addition, they also have special CNY gift packs with a variety of goodies inside. I settled for Potato chips and Almond Green Bean Cookies (made with mung bean flour) in the end. The recipe for the latter originates from Macau and each little round cookie melts in your mouth, that's why they are so special . Apart from cookies, the shop also sell nuts, local Chinese biscuits and snacks as well as "bak kwa" (dried meat, usually pork). More pictures below:

It's still early, that's why the shelves are still full, but if I were to come back say in a week's time, I don't think I'll find any cookies left!
Wishing you in advance a prosperous Year of the Snake filled with good fortune, health, and happiness!
