| - Small, old-fashioned, and very traditionally decorated Chinese dessert place near one of the entrances into First Markham Place. We were looking for snow ice dessert and was specifically referred here as they offered it. Their dessert menu is expansive and comprehensive, plenty of options; they also serve foods. We went on an early afternoon so the place was nearly empty, and one person took care of orders and serving.
Tracy Dessert calls the ice dessert we wanted "Snowflake ice." This is a pre-flavored block of ice that shaves out snow-like. We ordered the original base topped with red bean, coconut jelly, and diced mango, and the matcha base topped with kiwi and ringed with watermelon and cantaloupe balls. Took a while to make, we were nearly done with one while the other was being made, but that was fine. Both desserts were very good, nice texture, tasty with fresh toppings. Matcha was the flavor winner in our group.
A bit expensive at nearly $8, but a good size portion, well-made, and worth having once in a while.
