2016-09-28 777 views
The sugar cane products here are famous, and I was recommended to try the Herb Tea Pudding, which is quite funny too... hopefully can help clear my throat and reduce the amount of toxins inside my body.... THANKS!!BTW, it's also a good place for photo too... See more History of the Old Hong Kong in Central and Mid-Level, including this famous shop.

    This is a traditional-style sugar cane juice store that I could still remember used to be common in HK when I was still a young kid. Nowadays becoming more a rarity, the decoration of this one still maintains the same style with the tables and chairs, the ceiling fan, all exhibiting that friendly atmosphere.Not too many people because it was late morning but before lunch, we ordered the signature sugar cane juice and the sugar cane jelly.

     Not too many people because it was late morning but before lunch, we ordered the signature sugar cane juice and the sugar cane jelly. The juice is very tasty, sweet and natural, and in a hot summer it would be the best drink to quench your thirst. You can also see how the canes were crushed to squeeze the juice out, with nothing added to the juice it is really a pure pleasure.

     The sugar cane jelly is another specialty, with the texture chewy and even though it was not as sweet as the juice, there is still that fragrance coming from the cane, plus having also a refreshing taste. As a dessert it is indeed perfect with the right sweetness level, and I basically finish the whole bowl in no time.
    We each ordered the two and the bill was $52. Considering the pure enjoyment, the natural ingredients and how the owner kept up with business despite all the challenges and temptations for them to do something different, I would say this is a store we should try our best to keep, and also to showcase this to both HK and overseas people as one of our heritage and proud offering.
    My overall rating is 63/100.

    Sugar cane juice beats the thirst

    I have a sweet tooth and I love savoury snacks but not for Chinese food.The sweetness in Chinese desserts seems to taste weird and overly sweet, even their crisps are sweet.I am not sure if the sugar used in Western food is different to the Chinese one, but the Chinese sweetness stings the throat and causes a build up of phelgm.Unless it is plain water or sugar-free drinks it does not quench my thirst, because the sweetness of the drinks just makes more thirsty.Anyway I assumed that it would be

    I have a sweet tooth and I love savoury snacks but not for Chinese food.
    The sweetness in Chinese desserts seems to taste weird and overly sweet, even their crisps are sweet.

    I am not sure if the sugar used in Western food is different to the Chinese one, but the Chinese sweetness stings the throat and causes a build up of phelgm.
    Unless it is plain water or sugar-free drinks it does not quench my thirst, because the sweetness of the drinks just makes more thirsty.

    Anyway I assumed that it would be another one of those "been there tried that" reviews because I only wanted to try their famous Cane sugar juice and Cane sugar dessert.

    From the reviews some people have said it wasnt too sweet and some said it was too sweet.

    I sat down and the sugar cane dessert was placed on my table by the lady before I even ordered, but I was going to order that anyway.

    Wanted to try the sugar cane juice and the hot sugar cane drink so I ordered the sugar cane juice first to see how sweet it was.

    Sugar Cane dessert:
    The sugar cane dessert texture was similar to those steamed red bean puddings in a bowl (butjaigo) but softer.
    The first piece was hard to get as it was all stuck together.
    The sweetness was not that sweet so it gave me confidence to order both the sugar cane juice and the hot sugar cane drink.

    Sugar cane juice
    After trying the dessert, I ordered the sugar cane juice.
    It was not that sweet and similar to drinking nectar or the sap of some plants.
    It was slightly grassy but pleasant.

    Hot sugar cane
    This was slightly sweeter than the cane juice, but it was lighter and reminded me of that drink with waterchestnuts and carrots.

    I think the sweetness of the sugar cane juice varies from time to time depending on the season for sugar cane and the concentration, just like the way soy milk tastes stronger and sweeter from the bottom of the jug.

    Although the shop is old, they had many interesting decorations inside like the green thing which is made of green drinking straws.
    On top of the fridge there is a huge paper cup with a story cut out.
    The story of how sugar cane juice is processed from washing the sugar cane, to peeling the sugar cane, extracting the juice and drinking it.

    Price: in my opinion cheap, but then I havent tried other cane juice places
    English menu: nope! not your dreams, but this shop only serves drinks.
    Service: Ok I suppose, but don't expect them to serve you imediately.
    Yummy factor: dessert was good
    Sweetness level: the sweetness was just right and not so sweet.
