    H2.WILD RICE MILK with jelly
    Jane N.

    Ordered through DoorDash and everything was packaged nicely. The K1.Strawberry Ice Cream Cake 草莓冰淇淋蛋糕 was the perfect treat! Strawberry ice cream layered with sponge cake. I didn't expect actual wild rice in the bottom of the H2.Wild Rice Milk 血糯米鲜奶 yet I enjoyed it.

    D3. Mango purée M3. Matcha Cake Roll, D5. Egg Tart, and A3. Taro Milk Tea

    I've stopped by a handful of times whenever I'm craving Hong Kong desserts. This place is the only one that I know of that sells desserts like this in the Columbus area. I've grown up eating egg tarts all my life (Hong Kong, Macau, San Francisco, Vancouver, Toronto) and this place has surprisingly one of the best. You can never go wrong with any of the mango desserts. The matcha roll was good and they top it with matcha powder which is a little bitter, but worked well with the cake as a whole. Their black sesame bowl lacked sugar for my liking, but the sugar level in everything else was good, even when we got the reduced sugar milk tea. Their matcha ice cream cake had poor texture. The ice cream tasted freezer burnt/"dry"?. Sort of tasted like ice and very little matcha flavor. There was yellow cake and red beans between the layer of ice cream. Their desserts are pretty filling, so l typically come here for a meal, and not after eating out. I also joined their membership program. They charge $100, and it's like a gift card, but you get 10% off your purchase on everything purchased on your membership card. And you can refill it in $50 or $100 increments. I'd you lose your card, they can look you up with your ID, but they will charge you a $3 replacement card fee. Also, bring cash to tip, they don't have an option to tip via CC or the membership card. Like a lot of restaurants, they're short staffed, where there was only one or two workers there, so it takes a little bit to get your food if there are other customers there.

    D5. Herbal Jelly and Taro /  Oreo ice cream cake

    Been here twice and would return! When kids aren't running through, it's a great place to chat with friends or study. The service is quick and sweet. The desserts are kind of hit or miss for me and definitely the kind to share or save half for later. I remembered the herbal jelly dessert being a lot better, but I think I was biased by something similar in Kantaro the Sweet Tooth Salary Man. It was decent, but I wished I had not gotten it for just myself (my fault tho.) Just very rich and shareable. The ice cream cakes I tried were tasty but surprisingly dry, as the ice cream was not mixed into the cake part at all, but both had assumedly been sitting in a freezer losing moisture. I brought home a basque cheesecake for the wife and he liked it! I tried the leftovers the next day and they were yummy! Nice firm-soft texture and not too sweet, not sour like lost cheesecakes I've had. The teas are wayyyy too sweet to me.

    Egg Waffle

    Fresh egg waffles??? In Columbus? Sign me up. Over super cute Asian dessert place that has the usual evaporated/condensed milk yums and most importantly, fresh egg waffles with ice cream. I've been stalking down their mango pamelo sago dessert for literally months but they've never had the mangos in season to make it, so fingers crossed for the summer... Otherwise, cute place to hang and get some sweet treats. Beware they do close pretty early for a dessert place so come by early!

    This is a really cute spot in a very nondescript strip mall. Most of the menu seems to be drinks, including some excellent looking milk tea, but I really wanted to try this bubble waffle phenomenon that I keep seeing around. The waffle was really good and not too sweet, and complemented the ice cream and whipped cream really well. I'm not entirely sure if they're open for seating, but it's a cozy spot that would be fun for meeting some friends.

    Mango boba and bubble waffle with Oreo ice cream

    The atmosphere is super chill and laid back. It's a great place to meet with friends or work. When you walk in, they are a couple of kiosks to place your order. My family and I ordered different drinks and desserts. I ordered the peach long tea and a bubble waffle with Oreo ice cream. The food came out in time and we didn't have to wait long at all.

    Chocolate crepe cake

    Order delivery from this place on uber eats. Packaging was done well. The bobas were balnd and boring they weren't sweet enough. The crepe cake wasn't as good as i expected. The pricing was high as well.

    Matcha cheese green tea
    Zheng Hong T.

    I am in love with their matcha cheese Green tea! For people who don't know Boba, Boba is not just drinks with pearls in them. They have gradually evolved to having layers (like shrek) and a milk cap with frothy goodness is one of my favorite ways to sip on them! Wali's cheesy milk cap is the best I've had, with the slight salty cheesiness really shining through! Plus, their tea has never been dilute in the many times I've been there. Something I find distinctive about Wali is how caring their people are. They would 100% give you recommendations on the best way to make your tea like how they'll recommend that you opt for less ice if you are not consuming it immediately to avoid diluting it. Something that I'll improve on though is their caps. They have recently switched their milk caps to standard seals instead of a lid attachment which makes it harder to sip and churn the milky, cheesy goodness and the refreshing tea in your mouth for optimal enjoyment!

    Herbal Jelly & Taro

    I'm so glad this place exists. I can't get this type of dessert anywhere in Ohio, but here it is in Columbus. Too bad I live in Cincinnati. Great quality, great service, I order from them every time I'm in town and they've always gotten my order exactly right (i usually order thru doordash). I've seriously been learning to recreate it at home but it is labor intensive when you're making alone for just one because your fiancee isn't a fan of squishy textures... hah. They are my favorite indulgence when I'm in town. 6/5 stars!

    Cocoa "towel roll" - absolutely delicious!
    Cory C.

    We came here after dinner and got the cocoa "towel roll". I must say, it took quite a while for it to come out (I thought they were just going to pull it out of the refrigerated display case, but apparently they made us a fresh one). The towel roll is a giant crepe rolled up with whipped cream inside, and it is absolutely delicious. The whipped cream was infused with cocoa and wasn't too sweet. The roll was dusted with a generous amount of cocoa powder on the outside. It was definitely worth the wait! It looks like there are a lot of other delicious desserts worth trying here. Unfortunately, we came pretty late in the evening and many of the items were sold out by then. I want to mention that I wanted to order the mango pomelo sago with ice cream, but they said they couldn't serve it because the mangos they had that day weren't sweet. I really liked that because 1) it shows that they use fresh fruit and 2) it shows they are honest and didn't want to serve us something that wouldn't taste good. I highly recommend this place if you want incredible Chinese desserts!

    Another bubble tea / fruit tea place in Columbus! They also offer a variety of desserts. Pink Snow Cheese: Blend fresh strawberry + green tea + ice, topped with a layer of cheese milk cover. I wish I did 50% sugar, since I got 25%, and it was not sweet at all. Signature Fruit Tea: I suggest to just do 25% sugar level since a mix of fresh fruit already has a decent amount of sweetness. Egg Waffle in Cocoa Flavor: it was fresh and warm. I wish it was a little more crispy on the outside. I can't wait to go back to try some other treats!

    Good dessert place! Didn't eat there but the waitress told me all the tips on how to keep the ice cream cakes cold and the best way to eat them. May spend some time sitting there some day. Saw they have a lot of board games.

    Newer place in town for a dessert! Let's just say wow! How good was the matcha roll, amazing! Quiet little place to eat and/or read a book to relax.

The display of chocolates was completely mesmerizing and contained a wide variety of truffles and handmade candy bars. The shop owner was very friendly and also gave recommendations on what to try. I tried only two truffles because I was so full from all the foods I tried before: Lavender Hand Rolled Truffle: The truffle itself was very dense and rich with a strong presence of cocoa. Every bite melted in my mouth just like any good quality chocolate. What ruined this one was the lavender flavoring which was so overpowering that all I could taste was cocoa and lavender. Vietnamese Cinnamon Hand Rolled Truffle: I really enjoyed this one. The cinnamon and honey in the truffle paired perfectly with the strong cocoa flavor and the chocolate itself was very rich. If I was ever in the area again, I would probably come by to try their handmade candy bars and white chocolate items.

I went to the original location only to learn they have now moved to a larger location. So In traveled there. Drove by it. Lol. Turned around and was happy that they now how a dedicated parking lot. No more parking meters and walking! Yay!!! I swear... donuts from here dont taste like they are gluten free nor do they taste vegan. Which is why Im obsessed with them. So want g to share this with my friend, I immediately hopped into my car and drove 20 min to grab a box of these to being to her. Knowing she was going to be with three more of my friends I decided to get two big boxes of baked goods. Poptarts, scones croissants, cookies. All vegan, some gluten free. I didnt tell anyone they were vegan. They ate every crumb. That's when I told them about the vegan part. They were each amazed. When they were in town the next weekend they even messaged me to ask for more donuts! Im telling you, this is a hidden gem of columbus. Everything there is so good
