I liked the mochi assorted except the red bean flavor. The mango rolls were not too sweet but the mango was too tart and fibery.

Great desserts and savory snacks. Mochi snacks and puddings are so tasty. Their hot rice dessert soups are so sweet and tasty. Also, teas and boba. My family loves the desserts here and staff is so friendly.

I’m dying for their durian rolls!!! If you are a durian lover and seeking for durian desserts, this is the place to go. The mochi skin is thin and there is full of durian meat inside, I’m addictive to this. I also tried their other pudding desserts before, they are delicious as well, especially the coconut black sesame one. Their barley tea is good too. I recommend!

Happy to see Cantonese dessert in San Diego as it's something we don't have in comparison to SF and LA. Space is a bit small inside and seems more oriented for to-go, but outside seating is available. Mango sago tofu pudding (do fu fa/douhua), durian rolls, and black sesame tongsui were yummy.

We have mainly had desserts here. There are a variety of panna cottas, (some dairy-free) including passion fruit, green tea, red bean, black sesame, mango, coconut and more! Our date night usual is now the Mango Lovers’ Dessert which has chunks of mango, tapioca noodles, sage, coconut milk, mango ice cream and maybe something else? It’s so good! This last time we said to each other “we might have to get our own next time!” My daughter liked her sago, mango, coconut milk drink and my teenage son polished off one of the mango lovers’ desserts himself!We tried a cold appetizer dish that had a what appeared to be diced beef hearts, pig ears, marinated firm tofu and stewed beef slices on a bed of sweet-briny marinated veggies (cabbage and carrots). It’s meant to be be eaten cold and we enjoyed eating that between bites of dessert.They do have bubble waffles and other typical Hong Kong street food, most of which is deep fried.A few small tables inside and outside invite you to stay for a bit to enjoy your yummies but plenty of patrons take theirs to go!

If I could give this place 10⭐️’s I would. My husband and I were reading an article listing best Asian dessert places to try and Im so glad we did.We started out ordering the mango pomelo delight and liked it so much decided to also try the coconut jelly noodles. Both were fantastic!!The customer service here is great. MONICA found out we had about an hour drive back home she didn’t want any of our goodies to melt. MONICA provided us with a special case and ice packets. We really appreciate her thoughtfulness and we will definitely be coming back.

Honestly, we were disappointed. We tried the assorted mochi (4 different flavors- only one that was “good” in our taste was mango). We also tried the sticky rice with mango and a kumquat juice. When I told my son next time I would order something totally different like the shaved ice, he looked at me quizzically and said, “Next time??” The sticky rice was super soppy with white coconut cream, stingy on the mango. Would never order again.
