Got a mango pomelo sago grass jelly. Perfectly balanced. Slightly creamy, sweet but not too sweet. The grass jelly has a good texture and the taste is subtle (not in your face like some places have it)
This place is my favorite for desserts and boba teas alike, and the BEST MANGO SMOOTHIE I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY WHOLE LIFE. I have been to many boba shops and restaurants, with my fair share of mango flavored everything. Their mango smoothie tastes like asian yellow mangos fresh picked and perfectly RIPE, while other places usually use power, unripe fruit or a mixture of both artificial flavoring and fruit. I come here all the time for their mango smoothie and it is super consistent in taste.
The milk tea is hight price but low quality. I order Jamine green tea without milk. They give me jamine green sea salt tea with cream at $5.5. They said with sea cream or without is same price. After first try I don't taste any any tea flavor. It taste like sugar water only. I'll never come back agian
The Shrimp Shumai were tiny. And I just kept thinking how I paid $8 for just 6. It just wasn't worth it. Might come back to try something else, not sure.Side note the the music was super loud, and kept switching to completely different genres. Hard to relax, hard to talk over.
First time here, came in the early afternoon, service was good and prompt. Got the vanilla frost with black glutinous rice and mango, it was so refreshing on a hot day and sweet but not too sweet
To be completely honest, I was very underwhelmed on my first visit. I love trying new things from different cultures and seeing as this is the only Hong Kong dessert style spots in central OC, I was super excited to check it out. I can’t recall what we ordered besides the durian pancakes but nothing stood out. My brother on the other hand loved it. He is also the reason I came back a second time. On my second trip we ordered the almond soup with tofu and a vanilla frost. The soup was warm and comforting on the cold rainy evening. It was literally pouring rain outside. And the frost was cool and refreshing. I really enjoyed both..a lot. Ironically, we might have ordered similar items the first time. Here’s the thing, if you’re looking for super flavorful desserts, this might not be your spot. Everything (that I’ve had so far) has been mild and subtle. I think that was the difference between my first and second visits..expectations. When it comes to Asian desserts we love it when it’s “not too sweet.” This place does a really good job of delicately showcasing flavors. You don’t leave feeling heavy or guilty. The reason I gave this five stars is because I judge things based on its “crave-ability.” Do I think of it days or weeks later? Do I crave something from there? Do I discover something I like enough to want to watch YouTube videos on how to make it? The answer here to all three questions was YES.

Great place for dessert with friends
You get overpriced low-quality low-quantity Asian dessert here. I ordered a red bean soup with black glutinous rice, expecting a hot bowl of red bean soup with black rice. Instead, I got some lukewarm container of red bean, and a cold, hard ball of rice. I had to combine then myself, but it was impossible to mix. Nothing like the picture. I also ordered a tofu pudding, because I was told it would be warm, but it was also stone cold. Definitely not worth the price.Also the place smells like durian, but I can't fault them for that because I think that's a selling point.Oh by the way, it's completely self-serve, and you bus your table yourself
Service was Good :-)
