Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!! Let's finish the year off with one of my favourite desserts!
For those who haven't heard of Tony Wong, he is one of the 甜心先生 (Mr. Sweet) on TVB's show 甜心先生 (Sweet Corner)... I have been to his Wan Chai location... and I really liked it... one of the most unfortunate things was while I was at their Wan Chai location, I was too excited that I forgot to take pictures. So, when I visited their Kowloon City location, I made sure I took a lot of pictures... maybe too many... (be warned!)...
"Street view" of shop |
To be honest, it wasn't really easy to find. The store was a little hidden... and because the sidewalk and road was really narrow, it was hard to tell what the name of the store was. (not only for this store but all stores in general on this street).
"Window Display" |
I think they can do a better job with their window display. It does not serve justice for the cake inside with such a messy store window.
AND HERE WE ARE!! *oops, finger on lenses.... don't worry, more images below! See how pretty the cakes are! Not to mention the variety they have. I'm sure there will be a cake for you. What is unfortunate though is, they randomly select from their various cakes, and since their cakes are made daily, the cake you want to eat might not be available. (but that's ok... since most of them taste good ;) )
This was what I got: Mango Delight and Chocolate Truffle.
Mango Delight |
Main Ingredients:
- Mango Delight
- Mango Mousse
- Panna Cotta
- Mango Jelly
Chocolate Truffle |
2. Chocolate Truffle
main ingredients:
- Chocolate Truffle
- Chocolate Glazing
- Truffle Cream
- Hazelnut crunchy Flake
- Cocoa Sponge
I ordered this at their Wan Chai location and I couldn't resist when I saw it at their Kowloon City location... the quality is perfectly the same and the taste is perfect.
This was what I wrote:
This Chocolate Truffle was really delicious. You haven't had Chocolate Truffle till you have tried this cake. I'm serious! Besides tasting really "chocolatey", and being very creamy and literally melting in your mouth, it adds surprises as you work your way though the cake. In the core of the cake there are Hazelnut crunchy flakes, this was definitely a surprise for my taste buds and mouth. The crunchiness made the cake so much more interesting and the rich hazelnut taste made my taste buds really happy. The bottom of the cake is held by a cocoa sponge cake.
mmm!! lots of cakes!! |
Eating There:
The patisserie's eating area was not much better than their Wan Chai location, but I was impressed that they provided plates and utensils (which their Wan Chai location did not). The eating area was very narrow (it was in a hallway).
yum! ;) look at all these delicious cakes! |
other delicious cakes! |
when you are in front of the store and you look up |
I highly recommend this place for all cake/dessert fans... actually... to anyone... they have one of the best tasting cakes in the world (I'm not exaggerating!)
