Went here because I was in Kowloon.
Tried the coconut with red rice, QQ cubes served with pinenuts.
The dessert was quite cooling and light in taste with a lovely taste of coconut water mixed with the red rice.
I wish the presentation was better though because it looked like the contents overflowed all over the coconut and it costs $75 so not exactly cheap.
The product shot showed the coconut was on a candlelight stove but it was simply served in a bowl.

Went to HLS and tried some new desserts.
I am not a fan of mango but a fan of pandan.
They had this new mango cream cheese crumble and pandan noodles.
Mango cream cheese crumble:
A nice smokey gimmick serving the dessert on dry ice with water.


Mango pandan cold noodle with ginger and brown sugar:

Tried the noodles on its own and they tasted bitter.
I was quite confused because they said the green tea powder was not mixed properly but the bitterness tasted like the type you get from soda powder.
A nice side of coconut slush which was quite sweet.

Went here because of the new dessert series.

Tried the pistachio and purple sweet potato soup and the other one.
The pistachio was too sweet and sickly with a strong coconut taste which overpowered the pistachio.
The pistachio at Lan Chee Koon and Hoi Kee tastes better.
There were two waitresses, the one at the till was rude because she gave the change back in a rude manner.

I love durian so stopped by to try the durian cheese series.
There is a durian cheese puff and durian filo pastry cups.

The pairing of cheese and durian is a bit weird with two pungent ingredients but in HK, they don't really use strong cheeses as expected, the cheese just gave it a stringy texture without really giving it any cheesy flavour.
It is a hot pastry which is quite nice with sweet warm durian filling and some chewy texture from the cheese.
The durian pastry reminded me of this sweet quesadilla which was filled with green tea and cheese at Tai On building.

The other durian filo pastry cup was lovely durian flesh on crispy filo pastry but there was a strange fizzy taste to it.

After going to the new Eslite in TST, discovered that HLS has this new purple potato drink so decided to try it.
Basically it has sago at the bottom with a layer of egg white pudding, purple potato juice, purple potato chunks and coconut icecream.
It was not too sweet so it was quite nice, and all the elements in this drink made taste like a dessert drink.

[Review 4485] Strawberry slush bucket @ 許留山 Hui Lau Shan

Had a $10 coupon so used it on the Strawberry slush bucket.
I wanted to try the longan but it was out of stock.

The strawberry slush had strawberries blended in it so it had a natrual strawberry taste and it was icy and cooling.
Beneath it was crystal jelly noodles which were sweet and chewy.
Hope to try the longnan flavour next!
