糖百府 Tong Pak Fu Hong Kong Desserts

糖百府港式甜品 Tong Pak Fu Hong Kong Desserts – Went to Paradigm Mall today after class as I have a long break in between the next class and tried the Hong Kong desserts shop – Tong Pak Fu. This one is the real desserts franchise from Hong Kong, not to be confuse with the Penang-made Snowman Tang Bo Fu.

There’s various outlet of Tong Pak Fu in Malaysia, you can find it in Suria KLCC, Empire Shopping Gallery, Paradigm Mall and soon opening in Penang too! Tong Pak Fu serves a variety of Hong Kong desserts like Mango desserts, sesame paste, walnut paste, beverages and more icy desserts. There’s curry fish ball too!

We were really too free and spent about an hour plus at there. Taylor’s U is kinda stupid lately because they arranged my timetable in a poor manner. We have an hour class in the morning and in between we have about 6 hours break. What to do? Eat Tong Pak Fu. Check out the desserts that we have ordered.

Mango Fluffy Ice Series. RM8.80 for regular, the ice is very nice, love the pop eggs too, but not the tasteless Nata de Coco. It would be better with real mango cube. But overall, acceptable. =D

Horlicks Fluffy Ice Series. RM11.80 for Large. Pretty nice with grass jelly topping and the taste of horlicks in the ice is very strong. Good for horlicks fans.

Red Bean Paste. RM4.80. According to my friend Jia Hui, she said this is not good. The taste is weird and too saturated.

Sesame Ball. RM5.80. Basically, this is plain glutinous rice ball tang yuan with sesame topping. It would be awesome if there’s filling inside.

Well, I have got to say they are so-so only, the pictures in the menu do indeed look awesome, but taste wise is just normal. I would prefer Hui Lau Shan for mango and KTZ for sesame paste. =D However, the fluffy ice is very cool here.

许留山甜品 Hui Lao Shan Hong Kong Desserts @ 1 Utama

许留山甜品 Hui Lao Shan Hong Kong Desserts @ 1 Utama – I can’t believe Hui Lao Shan, the famous desserts chain in Hong Kong is in Malaysia. Few years ago, Singapore’s airport had out outlet but closed down. Many people also came to my blog to ask about the franchise question but I have no idea how to answer them, but now they are really here in Kuala Lumpur, one outlet at 1 Utama Shopping Mall, Damansara Utama and another one is at Pavilion Shopping Mall, Bukit Bintang.

It is located at the newly renovated old wings of 1 Utama Shopping Mall. I accidentally passed by the place while doing some window shopping then brother and I went to try out the desserts. I actually tried it before when I traveled to Hong Kong few years back but seldom eat it already because the price went up in Hong Kong.

Surprisingly, the price in Malaysia is cheaper, I would say affordable too. The menu is exactly the same as what you could find in Hong Kong and the staffs tried to speak Cantonese in Hong Kong accent. You can also find the box of plastic disposable spoon and fork same in Hong Kong too.

Brother ordered one Mango Fiesta 芒果小盛宴 (RM12.90) which consists of 3 thing, a mango ice cream, a mango ice-cream-cake thingy, and a mango blended with small glutinous ball (tang yuan). The mango ice-cream-cake-thingy is kinda nice it’s not really ice cream, but it’s not soft, I don’t know how to describe it, it’s special. Haha.

Mine is the Mango & Fruits Combo 什果芒果捞野 (RM12.90), this one basically is a very healthy fruit plates with a foundation of mango blended ice and topped with various fruits like coconut jelly, kiwi, strawberry, watermelon, honeydew and lots of sweet mango! Yums. Although, the price is not very cheap, but then still cheaper than in Hong Kong, so eating it once in a while is OK. Haha. But then the location in 1 Utama is not very good as it’s not easily spotted by people. They should open one in SS15, Subang Jaya, or maybe Paradigm Mall, which are near to me! Hahaha.

Desserts At Snowman Tang Bo Fu (Tong Pak Fu), Pulau Tikus

#1

Desserts At Snowman Tang Bo Fu, Pulau Tikus – When you think of stressed, try reverse the alphabet and you will get D-E-S-S-E-R-T-S, yes, it’s desserts! Everyone does has a sweet tooth which has a strong interest towards desserts and sweet thing. It basically just put a smile on someone’s face.

Snowman Tang Bo Fu is a desserts house that serve Hong Kong desserts and was originally from Raja Uda, Butterworth. Now, they have expanded their outlet to Penang Island, located on the busy neighbourhood of Rat Island – Pulau Tikus.

#2

I went there on a fine afternoon with my brother and his friend to enjoy some icy cold desserts as a getaway from the hot and humid weather of Penang. The interior of the place is quite similar with the on in Raja Uda, it’s smaller, yet still able to house a mini band stage and also a sofa for better chill out experience.

#3. Wifi is available too!

Tang Bo Fu (mandarin) or Tong Pak Fu (cantonese) was a Chinese scholar, painter, calligrapher and poet of the Ming Dynasty, who basically is a famous Chinese from the ancient time. Now the name is used as the restaurant name which the word Tang, is changed into another Chinese word which means sweet.

#4.

I ordered myself one of the top 10, icy Honeydew Sago (RM5.80). The blended ice does really contain the taste of the honeydew and it’s accompany by healthy and cold honeydew fruit cutlet as well as the sago filling. It’s a simple desserts, yet, it’s sweetened the mouth and mind.

#5.

Next up is a Soya Milk With Sesame Paste Sea Coconut (RM7.80). A mixture of the sesame paste into the blended ice and soya milk turns a special combination into something delightful. The presence of sea coconut keeps the mouth busy with crunching the healthy fruit.

#6.

This is Mango Toufa with New Zealand Natural Ice Cream plus Mango cutlet (RM12.80). The toufa is very smooth and it taste like pudding but it’s more fragile then pudding. It break and explode once you place in the mouth. Somehow, the greentea ice cream felt weird in the desserts bowl.

#7.

#8.

We also ordered a finger food to accompany our desserts afternoon. The fried wantan was mouth watering and the skin was also very crunchy. The meat filling tasted a bit salty though.

Overall, the pricing at Tang Bo Fu is rather above average Penang’s desserts price. The desserts are nice, just doesn’t really satisfied with the pricing. Kuala Lumpur’s KTZ has a better pricing food and more choices.
