Xu Liu Shan Desserts - Hong Kong

Filed Under (China, Cuisines, Hong Kong, Shopping, Travelling) by Janet on 03-06-2008

It was at Tung Choi Street near Ladies Street (or Ladies Market) in Hong Kong where we saw the famous desserts store - Xu Liu Shan (in Chinese), or Hui Lau Shan Healthy Dessert Store (translated in Cantonese). And this desserts Store happens to be Dear & my most favourite desserts Store in Hong Kong!!

Dear & I first had our Mango Juice with Mangoes in a Xu Liu Shan Desserts Store in Hong Kong 3 years ago, & we’ve since fell greatly in love with it!! And once about 2 years ago, our hometown Singapore had a Xu Liu Shan branch set up in Orchard Road & we’d also been there a few times, though the desserts served in this Singapore branch weren’t as good & as much in proportions compared to the ones we used to eat in Hong Kong - that was disappointing……..& true enough as we’d anticpated, the Singapore branch closed down after several months!!

Anyway, it was just so wonderful we spotted this Xu Liu Shan Desserts Store as Dear & I finished our shopping at the Ladies Street, & we were feeling hungry for food!!!

Sago in Mango Juice with Extra Mangoes - we noticed that the Mangoes served now are not as much & as big as we used to have 3 years back - but they still tasted as good as ever :

Glutinous Rice Balls in Mango Juice with Extra Mangoes - hmm…..we especially loved the mini Glutinous Rice Balls (”Tangyuan” in Chinese) - so springy & delicious :

The aromatic homely curry fragrance of this Cuisine strongly attracted us into looking at the Menu to see what exactly was being sold, & we were surprised that there were food dishes served instead of only just desserts in Xu Liu Shan!!
