Pandan Latte Frappe
2019-07-09  909 瀏覽
Went here because of the Pandan drinks series.
There was a choice of latte or latte frappe so I got the latte frappe because it was a hot day.
The lady clearly didn't like serving people and had an attitude problem.
Apart from that, the pandan latte frappe was a really good drink.
I should have skipped the cream because the cream they serve is synthetic plastic cream that is consistent with the stuff they put in their donuts.

At the bottom, there was delicious pandan jelly which was quite sweet and the pandan frappe had a decent prominent pandan flavour as well.
There was a slight hint of coffee which was perfect because the slight bitterness of the coffee and the sweetness worked well.

Strangely, they have discontinued this drink at the Popcorn branch.

I love pandan so much that I have to try anything that is Pandan flavoured.
At Pandan Leaf, they have these pandan glutinous dumplings and pandan rice.
Tried both!!!
I just got the plain pandan rice because I wasn't interested in the chicken or beef.
It was surprisingly good and would be even better if it was piping hot.
There was a lovely coconut taste with chicken flavour infused in it so it didn't need anything else.
It didn't have any nasty lemongrass to it so I'll definitely get it again.
As for the dumplings, it was served like a drink.
They asked me if I wanted ice so I requested it ice free with less sugar.
The drink turned out to be a hot drink. which was interesting.
I wonder how you are meant to drink that with a straw as the dumplings are huge.
Anyway I had it like a dessert and the dumplings were sweet already so the drink didn't need sweetening.
The dumplings were a bit too soft that they were almost gooey but I liked the fact there were no fillings in them.
Overall they were not too sweet with a good pandan taste.

Went here again because of the pandan gelato.
The pandan taste was spot on but the texture was not on!
Although it tasted great, the texture was horrible because it was powdery and crumbly which made it very expensive for $35.
I think the fault lies in the cream they used as I have made easy icecream before where you just blend the flavour and whipping cream.
The icecream I made had the exact horrible texture as this one owing to the cheap crappy cream which ruined everything.

This is the second branch with its first in Quarry Bay.
They have the wraps, salads, hot dishes and desserts which are grab and go.


As a pandan lover,I had the pandan latte.

I was really excited because I have never had it in latte form before.


The colour of the latte was pastel mint green which reminds me of mint icecream in UK but strangely mint icecream is not popular in Hong Kong.
It was absolutely the best latte I have had because I just love Pandan.
The smell was good and the sweetness was just right as well as the temperature so I'll definitely come back for it.
I was pretty chuffed because it had a lovely foam cap on top.

I love Pandan so I was curious about the Pandan chamomile tea.
It had me thinking if it was a tea blend but it turns out to be a chamomile tea bag with a pandan leaf.
I am not keen on Chamomile but the good thing is that you can take the tea bag out asap so that that the chamomile won't be strong.

Anyway, interesting drink!

Hero Sandwich is a well-established brand.
They first started off in Tai Kok Tsui and expanded to Central, however rents were probably too high so they packed up the Central branch and opened a bigger and better branch at D2 place.

The menu has more variety than before and caters for the needs of Kowloon preferences with a comic theme that I don’t recall seeing in Central.
There was a giant hotdog which is filled with three burger patties and sliced frankfurters.
Interesting banana soda:

The most expensive item on the menu costing $260:

Anyway, I only had a pandan muffin because I was having dinner.

It was heated up so the pandan aroma was really fragrant and the muffin texture was hot, soft and moist.
The taste was really good and the muffin was not too crumbly.
It was really nice of them to give me cutlery even though I didn't ask for it because I found the muffin too hot to handle.

I am not really keen on eggettes because the norm is mega sweet eggettes that are too sweet.
Anyway, a few weeks ago I noticed these wacky eggette flavours by MODOs because they had the orange club which is a popular biscuit in the UK from Ireland and this other one made with Campbells Borscht soup which I don’t know what to make of it yet.

I got the pandan eggette because I love this flavour and Modos speciailizes in pandan desserts.
The taste of these eggettes were amazing, crispy on the outside and chewy and soft in the middle with a fragrant pandan flavour that was not too sweet. I liked it because there was no eggy taste which is great for me but probably not favoured by others if they like that egg fragrance.



It was so nice that I ate it all, for other eggettes I only have one egglet and leave it.
Finished off with the Earl grey pandan tea which made it a perfect ending leaving a lovely pandan flavour lingering in the mouth.

After having pandan eggettes at Modos, I was making my way to Prince Edward MTR when I saw this bright pink signage so went and had a look.
They had this scary looking Swiss roll which had red and green stars on it.
Then I noticed they had these huge square pieces of marshmallows covered in coconut.
There was mango and pandan so I got the pandan.
Typo? PANFAN?

Anyway, the marshmallow was quite nice with a fragrant pandan taste that was not too sweet but the texture was quite powdery though.
