Based on personal taste preference
Me and my friends ordered a few items:
9 box dessert Peanut paste: smooth, nice Aiyu jelly: overall refreshing with the very tangy Ice but wished it blends together when it's being scooped in. Doesn't feel blended in flavour like HDL. honeydew sago: vibrant green colour. Friends like it, but not me. Too sweet for my liking and taste more like sweeter version of a carton honeydew drink. burburchacha: delicious taro with peanut sauce: thought it was mochi but wasn't. Weird taste of the taro ball, but that weirdness subsided once started chewing with the peanut and sugar. tofu(?): very firm texture, taste erm not taufufa kind of texture. Not sure how to describe the odd flavour water chestnut: nice black jelly: taste ok but the sauce - maybe Coconut- weird pairing milk tea boba: no comment, did not try it
Mango Tango Snow Ice and Yam Rice Ball Coconut Snow Ice both taste not bad but you would feel too heavy after a few bites. Reason being their Ice is not the light kind/usual korean bingsu where it lightly melts in your mouth. Their shaved Ice is more towards a firmer texture, likely due to mixed with coconut/cream. Thus would recommend lots of people sharing it. Yam Rice Ball was nice.
Ginger and sweet potato - strong ginger and sweet potato is sweet enough, balancing the drink. Not bad.
Overall thoughts: so-so. Not too bad but also not what I would like. I think I'd prefer having desserts elsewhere as the desserts here are mostly either too sweet, or not light as an after meal treat, or weird matching...
ย ย ย Read morePassed by and saw so many people in this shop even though it was still dinner time. A dessert shop that's packed at dinner time? It must be good, so I went to see what the hype was about.
When I saw the menu, I realised I've seen this place featured in popular foodie pages on social media before. I also realised that if you give them 5 ๐ rating on Google, then you'll get a free dessert. My first thought was, so that's why they're so popular - viral hype and falsely inflated ratings online.
I ordered the yam rice ball coconut snow ice (RM19.90), and when it came - I was absolutely blown away! First off, the bowl was huge. For RM20, I expected only half of this portion size. But the more I digged into the bowl, the more I realised how generous they were with their toppings. So much boba, tang yuan, yam cube and taro balls (I replaced my red beans with taro balls).
The coconut snow ice was subtly sweet and the coconut fragrance really shined through. I never thought a plain tang yuan could be anything special, but theirs is really chewy and is in the perfect bite sized pieces. Lastly, the yam paste topped with dessicated coconut was just the right thing to complement the whole bowl.
Now I understand that it's not the feature on foodie pages that drew the crowd in. The high ratings on Google maps is LEGIT.
For the price, portion and taste, they've instantly become one of my favourite dessert places to go to. While I highly highly recommend this place, I low-key want to gatekeep so that I can enjoy my many returning visits...
ย ย ย Read moreThis is my 2nd time here and today is my 3rd. Didn't figure out whether it would still be open at this hour since it was already past midnight! To my surprise, it was almost Full! ๐
The moment I stepped in, immediately ordered the Black Sesame Paste Soup RM 8.90 + 5% tax, which was my first time trying it although I still prefer the Peanut ๐ฅ Paste Soup which I ordered previously.๐คค What I like is most of their desserts were piping hot ๐ฅ๐ฅฃ when served and if U manage to do a Google review, you'll get a FREE Taufu Fah like in my previous visit.๐ Unfortunately it depleted when I requested for it so had to order the alternative dessert of my choice. Got the White Osmanthus ๐ dessert instead and apparently it was their Best Seller. ๐๐ป
This place is pretty neat and clean ๐ซง mostly decorated in orange ๐งก theme.๐งฑ๐ฎ They have a set of 9 desserts in their menu which was served in their beautiful handcrafted bowls on a tray, good to be shared amongst family and friends if you're in a group! ๐ Their menu is also quite extensive.โ๏ธ๐
The staff here are amazingly friendly and at this hour, they still managed to have their jovial energy hyped! ๐๐ท๐ช๐ปโจ Will definitely come back here again since this place closes quite late for hot/cold supper dessert at 1 am during the weekday and 2 am in the weekend. Their business starts at 12 pm daily so check it out if you're looking for that typical old-school...
