Came here with friends for dessert after a hot pot dinner. Entrance was crowded, but we wanted to try it so we stayed and waited. "Receptionist Man" was very enthusiastic, loud and motivated for his job, how fun to watch ! 10 mins wait wasn't too bad, for the amount of people waiting outside. They have quite a lot of tables inside.We ordered a few things to share. 咖啡果凍伴雪芭 was very smooth and rich! I am not a big fan of coffee, but really enjoyed this dessert. The scoops of ice-cream-like parfai
We ordered a few things to share. 咖啡果凍伴雪芭 was very smooth and rich! I am not a big fan of coffee, but really enjoyed this dessert. The scoops of ice-cream-like parfait was smooth and silky with some crunchy texture and bits of ice. Extremely like ! Along with the coffee jelly, it was a interesting combination of textures and temperature. Plus, can't get this anywhere else!
The 芒果椰汁清心圓 was average. I think that the coconut base/soup was too watery. It would be better if they added some mango juice for more substance and taste. The 清心圓 was good, although not as good as 合成's. There was also sago and mango bits. Was an interesting combination but the coconut soup let it down!
I didnt taste the Sesame Glutinous Ball, but I tried the Sesame Soup that went with it and it was definitely low sugar! Wasn't too sweet, but nothing special.
The MALTESERS MOCHI!!!! Was my favourite dessert of the night! I've heard good things about it, finally got to try it! As I like things that come in small portions, these tiny chewy balls coated with cocoa powder hit the spot! A whole malteser in the centre, wrapped in a thin layer of chew glutinous layer then coated with cocoa powder. So simple but delicious! Chewy on the outside, followed by a chocolatey layer of maltesers then a crunchy malt centre. WOWWWW! They were so yummy I bought one box to takeaway and bring home to share with my lovely family!
The Mango Mochi however, was slightly disappointing. Maybe a little biased as I didn't like them so big. But the mango seemed unfresh and the texture was slightly too soft. The glutinous layer was too thin compared to the big piece of mango and not chewy enough. The whole mochi was just soggy and soft. Boo!The restaurant itself is quite nicely decorated but the seating was very crowded. I guess this prevents the long wait. The service could be improved - our desserts came at very different times and we had to catch up on our mochi because they took so long. Logically, they could've given them to us first because they are already packed! When we paid on our way out, they even stacked up a few boxes of malteser mochi: I'm guessing a lot of people order takeaway! Anyway, I like the fact that this place is low sugar, providing feel-good desserts! A less sweet, more healthier option for dessert big menu too!
