We've been waiting forever for this place to open. Signage was up long long time ago. The mango pictures on the outside was so inviting. And finally it opened. Long line up on a weekend. Looks like kitchen couldn't keep up with the orders. Our group ordered 3 items and they couldn't serve them all together. I think they should keep this in mind for improvements. DISAPPOINTING! was what I think after my first bite. We ordered the Jumbo Mango Chewy Ball and Mango Coconut Noodle and both had mango purée which had very weak mango taste, in short, watered down. We saw them prepping some mango on a Vitamix and this should be the purée they used for the base. So watered down I couldn't taste the mango. We also ordered a Mango Pop Pop drink to go and this was way way better. If they do not improve on the service and purée, I think this business will not last. One would think they have it right after so many locations in US, Canada and Asia.

I ordered their mango pomelo sago drink and it was really good! The interior is also really pretty with a pink flower wall and velvet furniture. This is a cute cafe for taking photos. It was really quiet on a weekday, also good if you want to come to study. Another plus is that the servers are very polite !

This place was dope when I had it in Hong Kong in the 90s. Sadly the desserts don't taste anything like the ones I had in HK. The prices are quite expensive for what you get. My nephew ordered the pineapple bun with mango and it took about 30 min longer than other dishes to arrive at our table. We were done by the time his dish came. It started to get busy here but the desserts were pretty mediocre. Doubt I will be back here again. Plus there's no parking on the streets in this area. We had to pay parking across the street and the surcharges were outrageous.

A cozy Taiwanese family restaurant serving a nice selection of Taiwanese street food and desserts…read more We came here mainly for dessert and ordered the tofu pudding with yam balls. The tofu pudding was AMAZING - freshly made with a delicate soy milk flavor, silky smooth and melts in your mouth. The yam balls are equally impressive, nice yam flavor with just the right amount of chewiness. I could happily eat this all day!

Sweet Memory is a Taiwanese spot open late in Richmond with a convenient, shared parking lot…read more Overall, I'd say the savory food and boba felt like huge misses, but the shaved ice was super unique and delicious. I feel like their other dessert options probably have potential and I can see this being an excellent post dinner hang out spot. Turkey On Rice (3.75/5): Rice and gravy was tasty, but turkey was a bit overcooked and kinda chewy. Black Sesame Mochi (3.75/5): This came out piping hot and the flavors were good (can't go wrong with black sesame and peanuts), but the texture of the actual mochi wasn't as chewy as I like. Satisfying, but not anything special. Taiwanese Sausage on Sticky Rice (2/5): Not sure what the red sauce was, but I really was not a fan; too sweet and had a weird funk to it. Taiwanese sausage also didn't have the right texture or flavor, you want the signature big chunks of fat. Pineapple Shaved Ice (4/5): Decently fluffy shaved ice and the pineapple was candied like the inside of a pineapple cake. Grass jelly sat at the bottom of the bowl and added an extra satisfying jello texture. Traditional Fresh Milk Tea (1/5): Way too sweet and the tea flavor was kinda bland. Maybe the other drinks are better.

Hole-in-the-wall gem of a find we stumbled upon after going to Costco. At first when we went…read moreinside, I think I wasn't the only one in our party of 9 to wonder what the heck we walked into and wondered if we should leave. The decorations are dated and they have a couch and TV riiiiight behind the ordering counter, lol. God bless the Chinese uncle that owns and runs the place... he and the lady taking the order barely spoke English, so we stumbled with our Mandarin. I think they even spoke Taiwanese with each other?!? Instead of ordering multiple drinks, we just ordered the one mango lover's coconut pudding. Honestly, we didn't know what the heck we ordered and we ordered it to go. It took a little while to prepare, but when it came we were presented with a coconut wrapped in cellophane. We were intrigued and had to open it right then and there. We were treated to a coconut FILLED with fresh mango, mochi, and pudding... all in a fresh coconut - the coconut meat was thin, so you knew it was juicy and fresh! My oldest kid did his best to claim it all for himself as we all wanted a taste. In the end, we did the only thing logical and had to order a second. I would absolutely, hands-down, recommend this place. The family that owns the place deserves our patronage and they've earned it in their own humble way. God bless.

Tried out Babatang Coconut Sweets for a weekend dessert. It's tucked away behind the Richmond…read moreCostco. The inside is spacious with several tables (32 seats). Order and pay at the counter, then wait for your order to be called. - Mango lover's ($18.00) - decent amount of mango. Coconut pudding was unique, small portion size - Taro ball ($16.00) - wish they gave more taro balls

Ordered the 8" black forest cake and it was absolutely amazing! Absolutely delicious! Nice…read moretexture, three layers, not overly sweet, great presentation, the liqueur soaked cherries were perfect! Would definitely order again and again! Also ordered some pastries: maple pecan brioche, Apple danish, fruit and custard danish, birdsnest, coconut macaroon, and can't remember the last thing, we ate it so fast. Everything was so good! Everything had a nice texture, not too rich or doughy. Well sized, so you can cut and share. Too bad we live too far away to frequent this place more often. I had my hands full with the cake box and all, so the cashier went out of her way to open the door for me! She had also pointed out the goodies on the shelf behind her which I wouldn't have noticed if she didn't. Just a couple of seats in front of the window so more of a take out place. Place is just lovely! Bring cash or debit only, no credit card.

I came here to pick up some treats while in the Steveston neighbourhood. I got a maple brioche,…read morepistachio raspberry tart, and an earl gray and cranberry scone. It is quite a small store inside with no seating but I did appreciate how it had a ramp to get inside as I had my stroller with me that day. I would have to say that every single one of the baked goods that I got were absolutely phenomenal and I cannot wait to be back to try more of their selections.
