TeaWood Taiwanese Cafe & Restaurant — Restaurant in Kowloon

Taro ball, mango and herbal jelly @ Teawood restaurant Tsim Sha Tsui

芋圓芒果仙草凍@尖沙咀茶木

Taro balls have 2 different tastes. The yellow one is made with yellow sweet potato. The purple one is made with purple sweet potato. Mix the sweet potato with the tapioca flour, and steam the dough, then you will get the taro ball. Is a traditional Taiwanese dessert. It has a very chewy texture and rich in sweet potato flavours. Is light up the whole dish. 蕃薯紫薯芋圓十分Q彈。絕對為這甜品加分。

Portion here is good, 2 people can share one after a full dinner, but mango they use is not a top quality one, doesn't has the sweetness and the sweet aroma a mango should has. 份量合適，二人分享也可。但芒果卻沒有芒果應有的香甜和香氣。

I were surprised by the huge ice blocks at the bottom of  the bowl, but it does help to keep the nice good temperatures for this summer dessert. 碗底有一大舊冰，保持了這夏日甜品應有的溫度，十分好。

However, the service here is not good at all, they keep lots of people waiting even they have lots of empty tables available.

And the reason they gave was " The person who responsible for cleaning the table is in his break, so we have to wait for him to finish his break and come back to pick up the dishes. "

Seriously?! Is this a proper answer a restaurant manager should give? En serio?!

但餐廳服務水準卻未如理想。

Conveniently located inside the iSquare shopping mall and right above Tsim Sha Tsui MTR station Exit R. The restaurant is one of the Taiwanese chain restaurants. Placing order is efficient as you can do it on your own cellphone after you scan the given table QR code. Food or drinks are delivered to the table in less than 15min. Food taste is better than expected and quite tasty. Portion is sufficient for 2 of us. The strawberry 🍓 dessert is huge (see pic). Overall, recommend this restaurant for a taste...

Very busy that is why we like to try the food. Not a good idea though to wait very long with young kids that are impatient. Very popular place for their french toast stack and soup. We ordered not so popular dishes and came in slow, dribs and drabs and even forgot the really hot chili chicken one. I would go back again without the kids one day when I go back to HK. Very busy and to accommodate foreigners and understand us might be too much of an ask that time. Food is...
