New store in Boston Mr.H-Mama!

🍰 Mr H: Seaport’s New Asian Fusion Dessert Star—With a Few Hits (and Misses) Let’s get this straight: This is dessert first, folks. An Asian fusion spot in Seaport with a $90 per person price tag, it’s less “Chinese food” and more “creative East-meets-West eats”—and honestly? That’s the vibe to lean into. It’s not mind-blowing, but it’s not a disaster either. Great for a date night or group dinner, as long as you adjust your expectations. 🍸 The Drinks: Proceed with Caution Their cocktails are… bold. Let’s just say they’re for the adventurous. If you like classic mixes, skip ’em. The plum tea? Tastes like it’s got that distinct “American cherry” twist—odd, but not terrible. It’s like they’re teetering between “fancy” and “what was that?” Stick to non-alcoholic options if you’re not feeling risky. 🍰 The Highlights (Spoiler: Dessert Steals the Show) Cake Out Box ✨: The MVP. A nod to 80s-90s wedding cakes, but make it modern. Coconut and lychee flavors shine, with light, non-greasy cream—no cloying sweetness. Worth the visit alone. Sichuan Caulilini: Cute, roasted veggies with a sweet-savory glaze and peanut crunch. Simple, but satisfying. Octopus: Way better than your average American spot. Tender, well-seasoned, and cooked just right—definitely order this. Youtiao Avocado Toast: A wild combo that somehow works! Crispy youtiao (Chinese fried dough) with creamy avocado—only downside? The youtiao was a little too hard. 🥢 The “Meh” and the Misses Popcorn Ribs: Tender meat, but no standout flavor. Fine, but forgettable. Shanghai Shrimp: Decent, but nothing to write home about. Duck Dan Dan Noodles: Skip. Overly salty (like, unshakably so) with basic dried noodles—no depth, no balance. Char Siu Pork: Hard, dry, and way too salty. Not even close to real char siu—avoid. 💡 Tips Reservations: Book ahead—Seaport spots fill up fast. Mindset: Go for the vibe and the cake, not authentic Chinese flavors. It’s fusion, through and through. Mr H is a fun, if imperfect, addition to Boston’s food scene. Just come for the dessert, keep an open mind, and you’ll leave happy. #SeaportEats #AsianFusion #BostonDesserts
