Spade by Lassana - Festive Special Honey Toast

Price: $

Cravingness: ★★★☆☆1/2

There are something in honey toast box that we love. The beautiful appearance, the delicious toppings and the crunchy toast with soft and spongy inner. If you have been trying to queue for Dazzling Cafe without luck, I would recommend an equally nice cafe to you, Spade by Lassana.

Mangochacha - Legit Taiwanese Mango Shaved Ice

Price: $

Cravingness: ★★★☆☆1/2

My first encounter with Mango shaved ice was a few years ago in Ice Monster, Taipei where I fell straight in love with it. The reason why Taiwanese shaved ice is delicious and addicting is because of its lovely texture which is very different from the traditional crushed ice. MangoChaCha, a popular shaved ice dessert shop from Taiwan has recently made its stop in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong and so I paid a visit.

Wired Cafe - The Dutch Baby

Price: $

Cravingness: ★★★☆☆1/2

Craving for something during tea time and having no luck in getting a seating at Coffee Alley (who does anyway?), I went to Wired Cafe instead at Hysan, Causeway Bay.

As creativity carries forward, Lab Made again blends in Canto flavour into their liquid nitrogen ice-cream and created HK Crispy Toast and Bailey's Mint Chocolate Chip which available from 24 Sep to 7 Oct 2013.

Lab Made - Mid-Autumn Specials

Price: $

Cravingness: ★★★★☆

A really late entry on Lab Mad's Mid Autumn's liquid nitrogen ice-cream flavour, just a recap on the nice HK Custard Bun flavoured that I have tried. I did not try the mooncake one as I already have had too many mooncakes.

Xiao Tian Gu - Still A Great Dessert Choice

Price: $

Cravingness: ★★★★☆

A random crave for dessert made us go to Xiao Tian Gu tonight. The dessert shop was quite packed, showing its popularity at Tai Hang.

Hokkaido Stewed Milk

This cute white porcelain cup holds Xiao Tian Gu's signature dish - Hokkaido Stewed Milk. The warm Hokkaido Stewed Milk was smooth with sweet Hokkaido milk taste.

Glacio - Belgium Hummingbird

Price: $

Cravingness: ★★★☆☆

You scream, I scream, we scream for ice-cream. Yes, under this sizzling hot summer, all we want is just a scoop of ice-cream and here is the first ever Belgium ice-cream shop in Hong Kong, Glacio! I was invited to its grand opening on 3 August 2013 where it is located on the lower ground floor at K-11, Tsim Sha Tsui.

Grandma's Dessert - The Taste of Local Dessert Soup

Price: $

Cravingness: ★★★★★

I know Chinese Dessert Soup is not everyone's cup of tea, many of my friends do actually prefer western desserts more. With chain dessert shops all around the corner, it might be convenient to dine at those places, but I never found myself truly contended with the taste those chain shops offer. There are certain tastes that you feel contented with and feels right and homey. To fish for those tastes, you really have to go to the local shops for authentic tasted Chinese dessert soup. Grandma's Dessert is among one of them.

Kung Lee - Delicious Sugar Cane Cake

Price: $

Cravingness: ★★★★★

Even if you are not fond of or do not believe in the benefits in drinking Chinese herbal tea, you will not resist a cup of sweet sugar cane juice. Among hundreds of herbal tea shops in Hong Kong, Kung Lee has to be the most famous herbal tea shop in Hong Kong.  Having a slight advantage in geographical means, i.e. their shops in the most hectic street in soho and Wan Chai, they sell thousands of sugar cane juice and other herbal tea per day. Same as eggettes, you can claim you have been to Hong Kong if you did not try a cup of this goddess sugar cane juice.

Despite the sugar cane juice, I really love Kung Lee's Sugar Cane Cake. The cake tastes like glutinous cake with its chewiness. The cake was only mildly sweet with a mild sugar cane taste. This sugar cane cake is a light dessert, which you can take it anytime of the day, even before dinner!

Green Lounge - Lovely Brunch & Dessert

Price: $

Cravingness: ★★★☆☆1/2

There are a few cafes in Sheung Wan who offer pastries and cakes for dessert, yet these cafes often close earlier. If you dine in the area at night and want something sweet afterwards, you can go to the Green Lounge. The Green Lounge, a cafe renowned for their yummy brunch and all-day breakfast, has recently launched a dessert menu for all the sweet tooth. The dessert menu is available from 3pm to 11.30pm throughout the weekend. More reason to indulge in desserts anytime anyday!

Pudding - YUCK! Frozen Toast!

☆☆☆☆☆

$

Pudding is a dessert shop in Tai Hang that I had been wanting to try for long. I went there today with my friends and was hugely disappointed.

The shop was small but furnished in cosy simplicity. The ambiance was nice with relaxing music playing in the background. The menu was simple and we had no clue what the desserts look like from the picture. The staff was friendly and eager to serve, they passed us his iPhone and showed us the pictures of their desserts. (Shouldn't it be iPad serving this function nowadays?) Anyway, we ordered the following...

Chocolate Library | Chocolate Indulgence for Sweet Tooth Friends

Price: $$

Cravingness: ★★★☆☆1/2

Seems like the popularity for the renowned Ritz-Calton the Chocolate Library has never gone down since the day it grandly opened, the queue is still crazy even on the weekdays. We went today at 1.30pm and were informed to be seated at around 4.30pm - 5pm. Since we have been here, we'll go shop around before dinning in.

Despite the queue, there is strict dresscode at Chocolate Library.

小甜谷 - BEHOLD! Shaved Ice Fruit Mountain!

★★★★☆

Stewed Milk with Red Bean 紅豆特濃牛乳燉蛋白 (7/10)

I always ordered this dessert hot. The stewed milk has a strong and full taste of Japanese Milk which is very yum. The adding of the red bean further added colours to the stewed milk. The only downside is it is rather filling.

小甜谷 | 特濃牛乳燉蛋白♥

My phone rang in the middle of the night, right before I showered. I hesitated for a second whether to answer the call, but I took it in the end. Two close friends of mine decided to go for a late night drive and asked whether I would like to join. I told them I was already on pyjamas, and they said they were too. Ridicously as we were, we went out with our pyjama.

We drove around and decided to pay a visit at 小甜谷. They said it was founded by the film star Jo Koo and heard that the dessert quality was pretty nice. Tai Han was renowned to be the newly cultured area with fab fusion restaurants exta. It constructs of many small lanes, so it was rather difficult to locate the restaurant correctly. We drove around in Tai Han and worried that it was closed as we did not know the store's openning hours. Luckily the restaurant was still opened, and we grasped our seat promptly once we parked our car.

Sawdust Dessert | $25 for A Small Sawdust Pudding?

Somehow I think I lost track on food pricing. Today I passed by Sawdust Dessert, although having my diet, I could not resist the idea of indulging myself into my beloved sawdust pudding. I went to check the menu out and was actually quite surprised to see it was priced at $25. I was not sure whether this was a good bargain. Anyhow my sweet tooth had succeed in persuading me to get the sawdust pudding.

聰嫂私房甜品 | Not As Good As Before

After the dinner at Saikung, we drove to Hang Hau for dessert. After Aunt Chung opened her branch store in here, I used to come here a lot back when I was still in Uni. I love their sago a lot, so tonight was a good time to pay a visit.

We arrived just in time, so we did not need to wait for a seating. The restaurant was squashed and noisy as usual. After seated for a minute, the waitress approached and asked what we want already! I still hadn't had my menu opened!

Hui Lau Shan | Summer Smoothing Dessert

Hui Lau Shan has chosen a very convenient spot in the China Hong Kong CIty in TST, just right in front of the arrival gate on 2/F. Customer who wants to quench their thirst upon their arrival, could immediately get a cool drink from Hui Lau Shan straight away.

The seating are in an open area which is shared among all the restaurants on the same floor. The environment is disgustingly dirty! The tables were sticky and had patches of coloured stains spread across them, some of the chairs was covered in spilt liquids, there were also pieces of food everywhere on the floor. There were cleaning ladies cleaning the tables up from time to time, but seemed like they were just responsible for picking up the tray only. This should be the worst environment I have ever dined in.

Yee Shun | Smoothes Your Throat

The hectic Yee Shun Dairy Company has always been famous for their employee's 'efficiency'. As soon as you have finished your last spoon of your dessert, they are already standing next to you, all ready up to collect your finished bowl. Pretty impressive for Yee Shun, I would want these kind of empoyees to work for me too if I have a fast food restaurant of my own. Might this rapid service put pressure on customer and hurt their profit? The growing crowd of customers rushing in to try Yee Shun's renowned stewed milk has proved no obstacles as Yee Shun's stewed milk is truely amazing.
