The Dessert Kitchen

Was here with a group of my friends for dessert after having phở at isquare.
This place was relatively small but had a decent size menu to choose from. But they didn’t have tapioca the night I went which was kinda disappointing for my bf because that was something he was looking forward to. So, I ordered a strawberry pudding and he had a tofu thing with red bean and red date I believe. Not exactly sure what it was but there was a picture of it on the menu that look pretty good.
Another thing about this place was their washroom at the time was out of service which made it pretty not convenient for us. We had to go somewhere else at around 10ish at night to find a washroom.
The dessert itself was kinda meh here. Nothing too special about it and the price was kinda meh too. Not my favourite place to have dessert in hong kong but it was doable that night.

You come here for exactly one thing: the grape dessert ice («Purple In Love»).
It won some sort of Gold Award back in 2009, and even if you’re not a huge fan of grape, holy crap it’s an intense, amazing burst of flavor, bite after bite.
Hell, if they sold only one thing here– or even three things– this would almost be enough to earn them five stars.
Sadly, they serve a lot more things here, and while quite a few are pretty good, none come anywhere close to the Purple In Love. The Ujikintoki is a fine dessert, but it’s almost disappointing after the Purple In Love, and the same goes for the shaved ice– good, but I can get good shaved ice lots of other places.
The other thing that kills me? No wifi, and no bathrooms (at least not the few times I’ve been). Minor things, really, but for a trendy, modern dessert place…

Dessert Kitchen is a great place to come to for an after dinner dessert fix. I’ve only been here once, but I left feeling pretty impressed. Although this place is pretty big, it fills up fast and my friends and I had to line up for a table even when we were here on a weekday. Meanwhile, we pondered over what to order and seeing as they had probably the most extensive menu I’ve ever seen at a dessert café, this task did not prove easy!
I think it’s safe to say that Dessert Kitchen makes every dessert under the sun. Waffles, pancakes, Taiwanese shaved ice, parfaits, sundaes, ice cream… the list goes on! Everything’s available in a bunch of different flavors. The most common ones seem to be mango, strawberry, chocolate and green tea. I was debating between the green tea sundae and the chocolate Oreo sundae but eventually decided to go with the green tea. I can’t help it — I adore anything matcha and whenever something on the menu is matcha, my heart yearns for it!
After about ten minutes, we were given a table and quickly placed our orders. Our desserts took longer to arrive than I had expected — well, my friends who had ordered other things like waffles and shaved ice got theirs faster than I did. Mine came in about ten minutes — the green tea ice cream was very smooth, but was a little lacking in green tea flavor. It went really well with the azuki (red bean paste) and the mochi though. I guess I expected a little more from the green tea ice cream, but I guess I’ve been spoiled by Via Tokyo, where the matcha soft serve is extremely flavored! My friends who ordered other things liked their desserts a lot though. One of them got the chocolate Taiwanese shaved ice, and it was so good!
Overall, there’s such a huge selection of dessert here, I don’t think I can NOT be back. Even though my green tea sundae was just okay and not that great, I’m excited to come back again and give the other desserts a chance!
