Last night, we decided to go to Meet Fresh in the last minute. The purple rice desserts were already sold out. So, we ordered the meet fresh special and the taro ball 2.
Meet fresh special: they put the herbal jelly sauce ( the main ingredient to make grass jelly) on the ice to enhanced the grass jelly flavor! Also, The grass jelly texture is soo soft!
Taro ball special 2: All I remember is that their Yam topping is delicious!!!
Both desserts have taro balls. When we got the desserts, I had the taro balls first. It was warm and soggy. But, after I mix them with the ice, it became chewy and it was delicious! I have been searching for delicious taro balls in Toronto for couple years. Meet Fresh is a popular dessert chain in Taiwan. Their taro balls tasted like the ones I had in Taiwan! I was surprised that they didn't chill the taro balls with the sugar water to enhance the chewy texture. Normally, the dessert shop in Taiwan will put the cooked taro balls in the sugar water to chill before serving them in both hot and cold desserts.
Overall, the price is pretty expensive, but their toppings and grass jelly are delicious! In the future, I probably will only order cold desserts if I want to have the taro balls!
