Lovely icy desserts on a 7°C day

I love having cold desserts on a cold day because Hong Kong is not cold enough.


This time I chose the melon tofu dessert because it has icy melon slush and I had the durian pancake as well so that I could compare it to the one at Honeymoon dessert.

Durian pancake:

The size is smaller than the one at Honeymoon dessert and the colour of the pancake was a light lime which is not as artificial as Honeymoon's green.

But according to their menu, it seems that the colour of the pancake should be the same colour as the cover of their menu.
The durian pancake here wins because it has more fresh Durian meat in it and the cream is silkier and lighter with the sweetness just right.
I prefer the pancake here too because it is thinner than the Honeymoon dessert one.

As for the price, I can't remember which one was more expensive.

Melon tofu dessert:



As it was cold, the slushy melon was not slushy but icy which was lovely and the pieces of melon froze so the melon had a lovely icy texture as well.
Beneath it was silky tofu which was complemented by the icy sweet melon and icy melon slush.
The slush was really nice because it was blended with real melon.
After finishing the dessert I finally felt cooler!
(In the summer, the melon slush is not icy and is just like a smoothie.)


After looking at the menu again, it seems that I have made the wrong choice because the one with grass jelly seems to be cheaper and has sago in it as well as the picture shows.

The cashier obviously does not like 5 cents because there were plenty of $1 coins in the till.
But anyway their desserts are good so I will be back again and spend it here.
