This place is great, I don't know why such mediocre reviews on here. Sticking to the chef recommendations (marked on their menu) has not failed me! This menu has a bit of everything, a fusion joint for whatever you're craving. I like the extensive dessert and drink menu which doesn't seem to disappoint. Ordered [In October before the Covid closure]: Omurice with sous vide chicken - The featured Omurice was comforting and hit the spot. Sous vide was good if you don't want to have too much fried stuff. Black truffle mushroom spaghetti - Yummy! Though I feel Gusto 101 has a slightly better mushroom pasta, however, this version tastes lighter less decadent with the cheese. House Special Mixed Fruit Tea - Perfect complement with ample fruit Honey Garlic Wings - We were supposed to get the Takoyaki, but they gave us the wrong order we just kept it instead of correcting it. You can really taste that they used real honey and garlic. Nice crispy honey layer though the stickiness can get stuck on the teeth. Mango Souffle pancake - We were thinking of Instagram-worthy brick toast but the portion size would be way too big, this is a better choice to share with two! If you're ever by the area, this is a spot that I would definitely recommend. Especially if you can't decide what to eat. The menu has East or Western food or whatever to feed your sugar cravings. read more

Petit potato has an extensive menu with lots of fusion dishes. We tried three dishes and found them to be okay. The flavours were generally pretty good but they all had very simple ingredients. 1. Mentaiko udon with scallops - the udon was coated with creamy sauce and had a slight kick to it. But what puzzled me was there were no scallops at all. I'm not sure if they forgot it or it was meant to be like this... But the name was surely misleading. 2. Black truffle mushroom spaghetti with cream sauce - the dish had a pretty strong mushroom truffle fragrant which was nice. But pretty simple pasta dish with just mushrooms as topping. 3. Chicken cutlet omurice with curry sauce - the egg was cooked nicely and the curry sauce was pretty good. Unfortunately, the chicken cutlet was pretty dry. read more

I love Asian Fusion food so naturally I had to go try Petite Potato! We got their uni spaghetti with scallop, pork cutlet omurice with curry, and their espresso rock with milk. They have a HUGE menu so I'm sure you'll find something to try. I wanted to try the dessert toasts that they're famous for but I could not stomach anymore Maybe next time! read more

Service: The service felt more attentive than usual. The food all arrived very quickly - even the souffle pancake. We were able to flag down servers quickly for utensils, changes in orders etc. Food: They have a new menu that I haven't seen before, which featured Japanese Hot Dogs. Yakiniku Japanese Hot Dog - The meat on top was pretty good, though nothing too memorable. The hot dog tasted like your regular Schneider sausage. The bun was an activated charcoal bread, which had a sweet flavour and was very soft. Caramel Banana Chocolate Souffle Pancake - The pancake was very soft and fluffy. I loved the caramel banana and chocolate sauce, though I wish there was more of it - it comes with less than half a banana. Sweet Sesame Dumplings w/ Coconut Milk - The menu doesn't have the dumplings with coconut milk - I asked a server for the change since the website didn't provide a special instruction section. This comes with 5 big sesame balls each with a lot of sesame filling. It's a nice warm snack for late night. I also ordered the Sliced Beef Teppan Pepper Rice and it remains the same from my previous review! Overall: I've come back several times and I will continue to come back to try new items on the menu. They have adjusted their prices since the last time I was here, which is understandable. read more

Petit Potato Ratings: 3.8/5 Food: 4/5 - Came here for a birthday celebration with a total of 15 people. I heard good things about this place, since one of my friends went to their other location on Younge, but I thought the savory dishes were just okay. I'd say come here for desserts; they are pretty good! You can see the descriptions of the dishes we got below. - Beef Bowl [GET]: A beef bowl never fails, but this one was mediocre. The beef brisket is wonderfully cooked, marinated in a slightly sweet sauce, very tender and juicy. The rice was not that good though, it was kind of cold, hard, and stale. It feels like it has been sitting outside for a while, instead of the rice cooker. I'm glad there was a spring egg that comes with it, the running egg yolk makes the rice a lot more "moist and wet," IYKYK. I do love their pickled ginger on the top, so I asked for more on the side. - Minced Pork on Rice w/ Popcorn Chicken [GET]: My boyfriend got the Taiwanese style dish with minced pork and popcorn chicken, definitely the best of both worlds. The popcorn chicken was flavorful, crispy, and well-seasoned and fried. The minced pork was just okay. The pork has a very mushy texture, and the sauce was too sweet for my liking. There's a spring egg in the bowl with a running egg yolk, added that extra moistness to the rice. Lastly, the rice was not impressive. It was more on the stale and hard side, just like the rice I described for my beef bowl. Ambiance: 3.75/5 - The restaurant is nicely decorated, pretty, and intimate. There are large windows, so tons of natural lights coming through, and plenty of tables, chairs and booths. However, some of the booths and chairs were not as clean and have grease stains. A good place to hang with friends to catch up with some sweet treats! Price: 3.75/5 - The beef bowl was $14.49, and the minced pork bowl was $14.99. The portion is fair for the price, and it was quite tasty. It was not the best I've had, but it's good enough for a causal meal. My boyfriend's parents treated us to dinner that night and was grateful for that. Service: 3.75/5 - The service here was pretty quick and efficient, especially with a group of 15 people. There were some small hiccups at first. We had to move to a different spot in the restaurant, because they originally placed us at a corner booth, and no way we can fit everyone there. You can order food with the waiters or online through their apps. The food came out relatively quick. I think we got our food within 15 minutes after ordering. BLUF: Cute Asian fusion place with a huge menu, literally a menu book for savory dishes and a separate menu book for just drinks and desserts. If you like creative and fusion food, and insanely huge desserts, then Petit Potato is the place to go. I probably will not return for the savory dishes, but desserts for sure! read more

Petit Potato is a hip updated version of what I remember Destiny use to be. They serve a wide variety of asain fusion entrees: pasta, ramen, hot plates, omurice or bar snacks. For those with a sweet tooth, there are herbal jellies, fruit platters, durian pancakes and fried milk among the usual choices. The most eye-catching would be the mountain of bread, icecream and fruit that periodically comes out of the kitchen. I like the querky touches, like how the cultery is a mini shovel and mini pitchfork for the spoon and fork. We were conservative with our choices and decided to have the fried chicken omurice, macha lava cake and a brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar tapioca. The macha lava cake was the star of the meal, the outside was nicely baked with a oozy green center. Not too sweet but not too bitter from the macha. A very nice dessert! My only critique would be that the menus really need an update, as they are tattered and peeling at the sides. Minus one star to an otherwise good experience. read more

This place has gone down the drain post-Covid. 1. Mentaiko Udon 0/5 - sandy, grainy, fishy 2. Mushroom Truffle Carbo Spaghetti 0/5 - bland, watery 3. Curry Pork Katsu Omurice 3/5 - overcooked 4. Oreo Milkshake 2/5 - bland and overpriced. At 1am, when it's between here & McDonalds, choose McDs :D read more

Came here on Canada Day evening for dinner for 2 and were able to get seated instantly. They have a convenient waitlist registration system for when it is very busy and you can wander off to go shopping while you wait for a text for your table. Orders for food is done online through a scan code so you can conveniently add food/drinks/dessert whenever you want throughout without having to flag someone down. The food here is always a fun mix of Asian fusion snacks/entrees/desserts and quite a few items have fun presentation if that's something you're into. For example I got the ice ball espresso to start which came with a hollow ball of ice that you pour warmed milk over to make iced coffee. For dinner the Spot Prawn Seafood ochazuke came in a piping hot stone bowl. Be sure to press the rice into the sides if you like it extra Crispy! The seafood inside was raw but cooked quickly inside the stone bowl and you can char it against the side. Pouring the hot tea in right away turned it into a hot pot or you can pour the tea at the end of your meal after you give the rice sometime to crisp up which makes it into a burnt rice contee. I like meals that are interactive like this. For dessert the mango roll was a larger portion than I thought. Really good for sharing. Service was quick and overall we had a nice night out. Would come back to try other items off the menu read more

Came here for some dessert on a chilly Sunday afternoon. Although it was very busy, my friend and I were able to get seated right away. They check vaccinations at the door and also do contact tracing. The restaurant itself was beautiful, with it's large windows that let in lots of natural light. The booths were also very comfy. The staff, however, weren't very attentive. Our cups of waters sat empty for a solid half an hour as we were not able to flag any of the servers down. We also sat with our finished plates for quite some time, while waiting for our next dish to arrive. The food makes up for what the service lacks though. We got the House Special Super Golden Sago and the Grass Jelly Sago, both of which were AMAZING! The fruit were very sweet and I was pleasantly surprised at the variety of fruit such as the kiwi, watermelon and mango slices. I definitely recommend both of these desserts! The durian souffle pancake took around 45 mins to actually get to our table but I was in awe of how fluffy and soft it was! It easily melted in my mouth. I do want to note that the durian flavour comes from the small cup of sauce, while the actual pancake itself did not have any durian flavour in it at all. Parking can be kind of a pain here since it does share it's small parking lot with a busy supermarket. However, it is right at the corner of Leslie and Finch, so it's only a short walk away from the nearest TTC stop! read more

Definitely a go to place for my friends and I. This time we all got the noodles on sizzling plate with lamb and black pepper sauce. Really enjoyed the meal!

I've visited this location twice and both are okay experiences. Their restaurant looks nice but it does get busy and loud. They have a great variety of food selection from appetizers, mains to desserts. I like how they created their menu because it offers photos of their food. This is not entirely a good thing for me tho, it took me a while to choose since they all look good in the photos. Pros. They have affordable selections and their food and drinks offers experience. Very unique and interesting. They have a modern restaurant design and the entrance is quite cute. Cons. It gets pretty loud. Their food looks great but doesn't necessarily offer good taste par with the looks of it. It takes a while for the orders to come. My first time here, they served our food 30mins apart so my groups didn't get to eat together. read more

Good hangout spot. Came back to try some desserts. They offer both foods and desserts here, which makes it a great spot to hang out for long periods of time. It's also decorated in such a way that it feels very cozy! We got the teppan rice and grass jelly with coconut milk. The teppan rice was good. The dish is pretty simple, but a reliable and more affordable option. The vast majority of the dishes here are a little pricier than usual, which I'm not sure is entirely worth it. The grass jelly with coconut milk was a wonderful dessert! If you're into warm desserts, try this out! It's a very simple but filling dessert bowl--definitely shareable too. Overall, Petit Potato is a little pricier, but they do have a lot more interesting menu items. Most of their desserts are very shareable, which makes it a great spot to hang out with friends. I would not cone here for the food though. read more

With the variety that this place offers, I've come here 4 weeks in a row and was still able to find different dishes I wanted to try. They are known for their Taiwanese style desserts, so definitely come here for that. In terms of main dishes, one of my favourites are the truffle spaghetti *chefs kiss*. It gets busy at night time so make sure you come early and put down your name on the wait list. Great for big groups as well. read more

This is a very cute place with a big menu, similar to Mabu. However the food here is so much better than Mabu. I got the black pepper spaghetti as I love black pepper sauce. I feel like it's a pretty mild taste of black pepper. I wish it was more peppery/spicy. The honey garlic wing was also very good, except the bunch of honey that gathered on the bottom of the plate made the remainder of the wings overly sweet. But over all everything was good and I'd come back again to give other menu item a try! read more

This location is smaller than the one at Empress Walk, but we got there pretty early so we were able to snag a booth and stay comfy as they got busier. The Mentaiko Udon with Scallop which was super tasty - it's almost like a kimchi fried rice but with udon. It has a nice kick and I'm a scallop person so I was a happy camper. The portion size was a little less than optimal for my abyss of a stomach, but I think it's perfect if you're planning on getting dessert after. We got the red bean matcha snowflake. I'm not a popping boba person, but I thought it was great here - some mochi bits would've made it even better. This was my first time having snowflake and it's not exactly the same as Taiwanese shaved ice / bingsu - the texture isn't as granular and it doesn't melt as fast either. The portion size is roughly the same as Dear Fro (but smaller than Sugar Marmalade). read more

Wow - the variety of the menu (not just the regular dishes but the huge array of specialty drinks and desserts) and beautiful picture menus made me feel like I was traveling in Asia again. The decor is bright and airy with plexi glass barriers between tables. My friend and I had a lovely dinner here. I felt the food was great value - tasty, generous portions, fresh ingredients and reasonable prices. We started with the mochi chicken wrap which was bigger than it looked in the pictures and SO yummy and spicy. I had the truffle mushroom spaghetti in cream sauce which was decadent and I am glad the server recommended it. My friend had the chicken teppan pasta that came sizzling hot. It's nice that you can customize it by choosing the type of noodle and sauce. The desserts here look EPIC and I will have to come back here on time and just get dessert. We were already super full, so I just got the mango sugo which was sweet and simple. My friend said the warm chestnut soup was fantastic. There aren't too many places to find these types of Chinese dessert soups in individual portions. This would've been a 5 star experience but the service was really lacking. Like many places right now, they seem severely understaffed. I think there were 2 servers and the whole restaurant was quite busy. Trying to get a server's attention to order dessert or ask for takeaway boxes for our leftovers became a comical exercise, as for several minutes neither of us could get anyone's attention. They kept walking by and not making eye contact. So, definitely great delicious food, but do not come here if you are in a hurry! Hopefully they can hire more servers soon. I would definitely be back to check out more items from the menu. read more

Ordered the mochi chicken wrap because it sounded interesting but I found it an odd combination and ended up picking out the pieces of mochi at the end. Taiwanese chicken was super delicious!

A large variety of Taiwanese inspired food including egg curry, pasta, steak, Taiwanese appetizers, Asian deserts. The food is very well made, the portion is slightly smaller than other places but it's still worth it. The wings are crispy on the outside and juicy in the inside. The waffles are very fresh and comes with popcorn chicken. Pasta is pretty legit. The food are good here and so is the atmosphere and services.

We ordered it from Uber eats and although the food was a bit cold that's because it's a bit further. I was craving omurice and this is the only place near me that sold it. Omurice: the rice itself was just white rice with a couple mushrooms and loads of black pepper. The sauce to rice ratio isn't quite enough. The egg isn't done like the traditional omurice but that's to be expected. Takoyaki: it's so good and reheated well Popcorn chicken: the chicken taste was really bland and doesn't taste authentic (I'm Taiwanese) Fish cakes: I love them so I thought they were really good and reheated well read more

I've been to Petit Potato several times now and their food is very flavourful! In particular, I really like the steak omurice and black truffle mushroom spaghetti w/ cream sauce. They also have a HUGE menu selection so everyone will be able to find something they like here! However, the drinks and desserts lower their rating for me. The crème brûlée was mushy and very eggy (I wouldn't get it again). The matcha soufflé pancake was good but not what we expected (we thought the pancake itself would be matcha flavoured like the picture in the menu, but it wasn't). Unfortunately, the drinks we had were a bit flavourless. I would come back to try their other desserts and drinks, but the ones we got were just mediocre. They do have aesthetic plates and cute shovel-like utensils! The service is okay but a bit slow. Overall, I recommend trying this place's salty dishes if you like modern east Asian food. read more

Petit Potato always has a place in my heart. I usually recommend this restaurant to friends who can never decide where and what to eat lol. It used to be a dessert place LONG time ago, glad it has now transformed into a popular local eatery with bright and modern renovations, and an extensive menu to satisfy all cravings! They are first known for the French Honey Golden Toast Tower, made with 3 layers of thick toasts, and topped with a huge scoop of ice cream and various toppings! I have tried the Mango and the Oreo one, and they were delicious! WARNING: DO NOT attempt to eat this after dinner unless that IS your dinner lol. Highly recommend to share the tower with your friends, meaning 4 people or more lol. More favourite go-to items: Chrysanthemum & Rose Tea - so refreshing! Shrimp Salad with sesame dressing HK style steamed rice rolls Unagi Omurice Marshmallow Toast Mango shaved ice dessert The seating is first come, first serve. Unless you have a larger group, it is recommended to call beforehand and see if they can accommodate. The restaurant is always busy during rush hours... I usually try to avoid ^^" read more

Great Place for food and dessert. The Chinese name would suggest this place as a dessert place and is not related to the English name Small Potato. However I think the English name is quite easy to remember and a bit cute. There are plenty of seats there and service is pretty fast. However almost all the good desserts need 30 minutes to be made, so be warned. However the food does not take that long to be cooked. I really liked the special teppan pepper rice. The special teppan pepper rice is served on hot grill so it is sizzling and give sme when you pour the sauce on. The sliced beef is quite tendor but I think the beef tongue is a bit hard to chew. The Omurice is not bad either especially with curry. The dessert is also superb. The special French honey golden toast with mango is so awesome with butter toasted bread inside and fresh mango with ice cream. I think it is a great Taiwanese restaurant. read more

I recently visited the location near Empress Walk so decided to give this one (Finch/Leslie) a try to see if there were any noticeable differences. I visited on a Saturday night and while one might expect it to be the busiest time of the week (and it was), the servers were efficient in cleaning up and providing the next available table for my group. Similar to the other location, I could scan a QR code and order directly on my phone which I like. Takeaways from my visit: food quality is about the same, this location is much smaller but easier to find parking, service was slightly quicker. There is a cash discount at this location as well if you're looking to save! I would recommend ordering Popcorn Chicken for your table, it's always a hit! read more

Came here twice to have the omurice and steak set. Price was good, around $15 but the steak itself wasn't very good. It was dry and tough. The brown sauce was very dark but not overly salty. It mixed well with the omelette and the rice inside. Not a lot of depth to the flavours but decent choice if you're looking for Omurice. They have several other flavours as well. The seafood one came in a red cocktail sauce and I was really not a fan of it. We also had some drinks and dessert. For dessert we tried the thick toast with purple yam ice cream. It was huge and enough to feed the 8 of us, except it was gross and nobody wanted to eat it. The bread was too thick, the ice cream was gross, the whipped cream was melted, it just looked like purple goop dripping down the sides of the toast. The drinks were pretty good. We had the hot rose tea, and the hot logan tea which comes in a big pot with tiny cups for you to sip out of. It was tasty and plenty for sharing. I can't say the foods great but the variety of food options combined with the nice decor and the prime location makes this place a busy spot especially for the younger crowd to hang out in. read more

We were actually leaving an establishment nearby when we walked past a rather extensive and interesting menu at Petit Potato. I was set on coming back to try it. I think this place could be described as an Asian "inclusion" place. They have stuff from everywhere - from Taiwanese desserts and snack foods, to Korean bibimbap, to Cantonese herbal soup bowls. There was a ton to decide from. We were there at lunch and the specials are usually an entree that you can find on the menu with the addition of your choice of drink, either cold honey lemon tea or a hot Japanese style milk tea. There were 3 of us and we ordered the black truffle spaghetti with mushroom (not sure which Asian culture this falls in under) and the chicken omurice to split. We also got an order of the fried chicken cartilage. The cartilage looks deceptively like popcorn chicken but is well, cartilage. I wasn't a huge fan of that but the rest of my party member was. Some of the pieces can be a little hard and I don't think you're actually supposed to chew through it. In fact on the little order slip, it said "chicken knees" so I feel like the parts that are more bone-ish could break your teeth. Anyways, the omurice came out next and was topped with chicken katsu and a curry sauce. The sauce was pretty flavorful and the rice was a bit elevated from just being plain rice inside. I thought it was decent. So this doesn't sound like a 5-star rating yet but the spaghetti was to die for. It was the epitome of savory umami goodness. The amount of truffle they used was just perfect. The aroma was wafting off but when you ate it, it wasn't overpowering at all. The pasta was also al dente to perfection. I absolutely didn't need to eat the whole dish in this sitting since we had a lot of food but I couldn't stop eating it. Another huge standout was that they actually have souffle pancakes! The only times I've had access to souffle pancakes were at food truck type festivals and tiny stands where the wait is always 1hr+ (or they stop taking orders because the wait is too ridiculous) and you're just standing around waiting for it. This was wonderfully light, airy, and fluffy pancakes delivered right to your table! We opted for the mango ones which came with a lot of mango on the side. The last dish was a late add on and one of the Taiwanese desserts. It's a bunch of stuff like tapioca, taro, mochi in a sugar syrup. It's really not my thing but the other people I was with really enjoyed it. Also just a note that the orange things were also mochi and not sweet potato. That was a surprise when I bit into it. The service was pretty good as we had a lot of different things to eat and the server came by to give us fresh plates before the desserts. There was a lot of comfortable seating and the restaurant had a nice ambiance all around. The only thing is that the parking might be limited in the immediate vicinity right outside the place but if you're willing to walk, there is also a structure. read more

Came around 3pm on a Sunday with a big group and it wasn't that full. The uni spaghetti ($18) was a big size for 1 person and flavour wasn't too strong. The popcorn chicken ($11) was decent although could've used a bit more seasoning. The nutella crepe cake had a subtle flavour, mostly tasted like a creamy crepe. A couple other people in my party didn't like their dishes as much. The service was pretty slow here and since we were sitting in the far corner, no one really passed our table so we were often waiting or really had to flag them down. The dessert also took really long to come out and we didn't get anything extravagant. If you want to split the bill you have to go up to the cashier to pay. It was nice to try but wouldn't necessarily be a go-to place for me. read more

I shouldn't have ordered food at a dessert restaurant =/ I ordered the Pork & Mui Choi Steamed with rice on the side. Portion is relatively small, but what can you expect for $9.99. I would've forgiven its size, except the pork was sooo fatty and oily. I know pork can be fatty, but it was equal parts fat and pork. Besides that, it was alright, very flavourful. The shape of the spoon and fork are really cool! lol After looking at other tables, I'll be back for dessert! read more

Location: 4/5 Usually parking here can be such a hassle, because all of the restaurants here at this northeast Leslie and Finch intersection are pretty popular and parking around the plaza can be limited at times. Ambience/decor: 4/5 Cutesy utensils. Comfy dining area for couple, small groups and booths for larger ones. This is one of my favourite places for double dates just because they have shareable food, plenty of desserts, and affordable prices. Food quality: 3.5/5 Many of my couple friends love coming here as well, so I am always happy whenever I come back to this place for their spaghetti, rice dish or omurice!! This is also one of the only restaurants that I know with my favourite squid ink spaghetti and it is quite affordable, too! Food is pretty standard otherwise, but oh so satisfying!! The strawberries on the ice cream toast tower looked like red mushroom tops. The toast were thick, crunchy reminding me of edible bricks. Great serving of ice cream on top. A bit much to finish for just 2 people, so it's perfect to share among 4-5 people after a meal. Value: 4/5 Good prices, but portions are bit smaller for the spaghetti mains than I thought. One was not enough, so I had to order an omurice on top, but no regrets, I wanted to try that anyway. Still I spent a bit more than I would have liked, but I enjoyed everything I ate. Service: 4/5 Food was served rather fast. They print out your order and place it by your table on the spot. Bills can be easily split but must be done at the cashier. read more

Whenever i don't know what to eat, i always gravitate towards Petit Potato. They have a great variety of food and desserts, so whatever you might feel like eating, they should have something suitable for you. My all time favourite is the deep fried chicken cartilage. I order it every time no matter what! Desserts are all amazing as well! The earl grey crepe cake, soooo good. The mango pancake, simple yet satisfying and tasty. All the chinese desserts are great too, can't go wrong with any of those. Even amidst the virus, we ordered delivery and the food quality was great! And of course super fast service, since i guess not a lot of customers. All in all, great restaurant for a late dinner, late night snack, desserts, delivery read more

It's been a while since I've been back to Petit Potato. I was a bit disappointed by the food and was not really wow-ed by it. We started off with the yuzu chicken wings. They were probably the best part of the meal. The wings were perfectly crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside. The sauce was a little bit too tart for my liking, however I did still enjoy it. We then had the sous-vide chicken breast omurice and the steak omurice. The steak was not very tender, took some effort to chew and was not salted, though I must say the chicken breast was tender and not dry at all. The demi glaze and the rice was overwhelmingly seasoned with black pepper. The omurice was around $15/16 so in terms of meat ratio to price, it's not necessarily worth it to me. For dessert, we had the condensed milk toast. It was pretty much just thick bread and condensed milk, so nothing much to complain there. It is $8 so a bit hefty for what you're getting. Overall, it's not a bad place to try but not my go-to. read more

Not bad. It was good but nothing really stood out. Got the pork ramen for $14 and popcorn chicken for $10. We ended up getting mango pancake $10. The ramen was good. Surprisingly alot of pork which I appreciate. The popcorn chicken was decent, wished it was more seasoned. And the mango pancake was alright -- there were pieces where there wasn't enough mango so that sucked! Alot of whipped cream. Which I personally am not a fan of but I know that's just me. I like the ambience, alot of seating and good music. I'd come back to try the mango mountain of toast with at least 4 ppl. Lol read more

It was very crowded when we arrived but we managed to get a table after a short wait. We were looking for dessert, and of course, we had to order the house specialty, golden toast. We also ordered a mango roll and a super mango slush. The mango roll and slush arrived first. The mango roll was delicious, sweet ripe mango chunks rolled in a coconut gelatin. The mango slush was good but maybe a little diluted in flavour from the ice used to make the slush. Perhaps less ice would have made it tastier. The toast takes around 30 minutes but when it arrived, the presentation made quite an impression. It's big and tall, dripping with sweet goodness. Unfortunately, we thought it looked better than it tasted. It wasn't bad but it wasn't great enough that we may order it again. Five of us shared it and we couldn't finish it. Maybe I'll come back to try their savoury food. read more

I was not hungry when I stepped in Petit Potato with a group of friends. I decided on just getting their black milk tea with tapioca. I asked for it to be extra delicious ;) but I was sorely disappointed that they forgot to add that to my drink. My milk tea was bland and the tapioca was flavourless and rubbery. They were clumpy and stuck together so it was hard to drink. Note: I'm strictly basing my review on my milk tea. I'm fully aware that Petit Potato has a wide selection of foods to purchase. I tried elements of other people's food but I do not feel comfortable to review them. Next time, I will come back with an empty stomach so I can provide a more detailed review on their menu. Stay tuned! read more
