Often packed and busy, I highly recommend trying to get a seat inside the restaurant and take your time in looking over the menu. With various offerings of ice cream, milk like products, fruit and such, it can be pretty difficult to know what to pick. If you like durian, there are a few dishes that involve that as a main ingredient. For me, I tried a couple of the desserts and it was all so tasty. Prices here are moderate, and for this particular location, I was surprised at how big it was inside! Service here is prompt and nice, and the portions aren't big enough to share though.

We always get the mango sago topped with rice balls, fresh mangos and mango ice cream. I love that the mango is always fresh and tasty but the dessert is not overly sweet.

We ordered the mango sago with mango and almond tea with peach gum, snow fungus and taro balls. The mango is pretty good with sweet mangoes and a great dessert for any mango lover. The almond tea one on the other hand is not too sweet and great for anyone who doesn't like sweet desserts. Both are perfect and refreshing for a summer day.

I think this is a pretty hit-or-miss dessert shop. When my family came here previously, they said…read morethe desserts were thick, creamy, rich, and tasty. When I went with them, the mango pomelo dessert was quite watery, the black sesame soup was also watery and almost tasteless. It definitely depends on who is working the kitchen that day. The star of the show was the molten matcha lava cake. It takes a bit longer to prepare (~20 min), but it was worth the wait! Still, I don't think that I'd go back to Lucky Desserts when there's so many other consistent and delicious places to eat in HK.

My favorite place for Hong Kong dessert! I come here probably a little too much, and any time…read morefriends and family visit Hong Kong, I always make an excuse to bring them here! Don't let the giant queue scare you, and yes there is almost always a queue. Despite that, it moves fairly fast. Its definitely not a place where you sit and chat with your friends. They expect you to sit down, order right away, eat it, and leave right away. But I guess many popular places are like that around Hong Kong.. Seating-wise its very cramp here. You'll be sitting basically elbow to elbow with strangers next and behind you. But that doesn't matter because their desserts are so wonderful! Some of my favorites are the tong yuen (glutinous rice balls) that come come with peanut sauce. The one that comes in the ginger soup is good too (for this dish, the balls have fillings inside, such as sesame or peanut sauce). Another good one is their sorbets, which are perfect for a hot day.

Heyyyy, do you like durian? Or even want to give it a shot despite the crazy smell it may emit or…read morethe odd taste it might exude? I believe one of the ways to try durian without having to be afraid of it is by tasting it through the various dessert dishes here at this cute little place. Having no idea that this place existed, I was pretty thankful to my new local friend who suggested this place. It's located in a small little street, similar to an alley way, and by the time you get near it, you'll definitely see a long line of people waiting to get in. The wait itself isn't that bad. Most people just come here to eat dessert and leave right after. Once seated, my friends and I spent some time browsing through the extensive dessert menu and settled on trying the durian with crystal seeds (one of the many popular dishes) and watermelon and lychee with crystal seeds. In summary, the watermelon and lychee were ok. The watermelon ended up being too watery for my taste and the lychee wasn't too memorable. Both tasted decent but definitely not a must try. For the durian, this was surprisingly good! I am normally not a durian fan (the stench gets to me sometime) but here, you couldn't really smell too much of the durian in the dish. The taste of durian was also soften quite a bit, making this dish a bit more doable for those who do not like durian. I found this dish to be pretty tasty and not too sweet and it was unique to eat it with the crystal seeds. Overall, this is a great spot to stop by for desserts. If you're not a fan of durian but can tolerate the smell of it wafting through the restaurant, this place is great to try other HK desserts at an affordable price.

In the near decade since my last review, it has become one of my most frequented businesses and a rite of passage destination for all of my new-to-HK visitors. This was a must-visit for life in the street side foods of Kowloon. (#1) However, this last trip to HK I saw no lines and only one person working the stand. I came through Dundas on multiple occasions to see very little activity, making me wonder if this was the effects of the post-pandemic downtrodden economy, but alas I brought a group of friends and we ordered several drinks. The end result was it was nicely cold, but a tinge blander and less sweet than I had remembered. It was still refreshing, but the wow effect was gone. Before there were people behind the counter cracking open cans of coconut milk and the continuous mixing of drinks, but felt slow and the vibe was a downer. My friends didn't seem too impressed, which I understood why. The bottle prices are up 4HKD (now 30HKD) from the last decade, which is not as crazy as expected. Considering that they've recently expanded to Prince Edward earlier this year, I imagine the brand is doing well, despite it not feeling the same. I'll be back again soon, and while I anticipate another visit, it will be with much lesser expectations. ___________ (#1) Yai Ma Tei is the best.
