Bought this recipe book in 2004, before that many years ago I have attended one of his classes held in Chang Tung, Petaling Jaya. I remember I have a good time during the class on the Chinese Walnut Cookies(Hup Toh So), Kaya Puff, Egg Tart and Century Egg pastry. In fact I still have the photocopies of the hand written recipes with me. Remember well that Alex Goh says its in Cantonese "yat chao tin gai" if you master this 4 recipes meaning we can make a living out of this four recipes making $$$$$ when we only pay rm50 for the 3 hours lesson. He sure did as he has a few recipe books in the market up to date and Alex Goh is well known in the bakery world nowaday.Congratulation, you did it.
