Finally, after driving past this place too many times, and seeing no lineup, the wife and I decided this was the night, and I have to say I was happy with what was consumed.
It is a very pretty shop, showing the 'sort-of' open kitchen concept, a cool digital screen up front putting down the amount of people in your party (if it is busy), the QR codes at the table to input your order, and the dual language large menu's at the door that you pick up and take with you to your table. So what is this place you must ask... well Cantonese desserts, ranging from hot or cold soups, from black sesame, to beans, to mango and durian, there's quite the selection, even some savory items on the menu if you crave that.
I am only going to review the stuff we ordered, which was a hot red bean soup with a side of small mochi-like dumplings, a cold mango-pomelo sago, and an order of their curry fishballs. Each is presented very nicely, with the desserts coming in the opened up egg shaped bowls, kinda like what the menu drawn pictures look like.
My take on why this place gets top marks, is that they are using good ingredients, when you look at the QR code at the table and how they pride themselves on not just using white sugar, but cane sugar, and even after we ate everything and came home, there was no effort on breaking down these foods, in other words, this stuff was clean, kind of like a non-guilty pleasure, and I can see myself returning here, I know why this place is busy, as I know that I was eating real food. Both dishes were done quite well, especially the fact that the mango they were using in my dish was the perfect sour peak that just brought a smile to my face.
They do state a time limit also right next to the QR code of an hour, and they take card, which is great. When this place does get busy and if you are to drive, parking can be quite hard to find, due to other eateries in the area also having the same problem, but if you get a chance, try this place out if you are looking for high quality Cantonese desserts that will make you feel good. read more
