Ghost's Drool: The dessert arrives in a ceramic bowl that resembles a cracked egg shell. It contains a warm pistachio paste that's thick and smooth. It's not too sweet, but my sweet tooth definitely craves something a bit sweeter. The drool is actually a melted mochi, which is soft, stretchy, and chewy. This bowl is a delicious showcase of textures. Double Skin Milk Pudding: Somewhere between a custard and a pudding, it's silky, smooth, and really creamy. It has a thick "skin" on top formed as the custard cools, which adds a nice chewy texture to this smooth steamed dessert. Double Skin Milk Pudding with Taro: This version of the milk pudding contains a clump of soft, chewy, purple taro. Black Sesame Soup with Mini Glutinous Rice Balls: The hot black sesame paste is fragrant and nutty, probably the best flavor in this shop. The soupy paste is also thick and smooth. The rice balls are chewy like the mochi. Mochi with Red Bean Paste: This one contains a red bean paste, which is almost like the filling of a sweet potato pie. It is smooth and creamy with the chewy mochi.

The menu has shrunk considerably and their business days/hours are also a lot less than what it was previously. The drinks were not as tasty as they used to be. My Blue Rose drink was the best of the bunch and I would say even that was just OK. I enjoyed the Lychee jelly in my drink. That was probably the best part of the drink. The liquid part was kinda "meh" for me. I think the best thing we ordered was the matcha soft serve ice cream. On the flip side, there was a guy playing piano there and they were taking requests. I suggested Demon Slayer and the guy played the famous "Gurenge" song by Lisa from season one of Demon Slayer. That was kinda cool. He was a very good pianist. Great way to liven the atmosphere. Also, there was a guy who came around and gave us all tiny paper cranes. It's nothing much, but still always nice to be gifted with anything at all. Business must be hard for them. It would sure be nice to see them return to how they used to be, with a bigger menu, tastier drinks and more days/hours again. We love this place for the manga/ anime vibes that it exudes, and love the Matcha soft serve ice cream they sell here. Really wanna give this place a higher rating but the drinks were really not up to par this time, and as much as we love the Matcha ice cream, it is not by itself enough to warrant giving out a higher rating. If they could just improve the quality of their drinks again...then even if they menu remains limited, at least if everything they serve is of good quality...that would be enough to merit a higher rating.

If I need a pick me up, it means I need my dessert to be more than just convenient...it needs to actually be good. We ordered the following: Mango Mango with Mini Mochi & Ice Cream Mango Pomelo Sago Walnut and Almond Paste (Hot) Roasted Milk Tea Seems they changed their menu a bit since the last time we came here. No more slush drinks on their menu. Thankfully our daughter is older and her taste buds have evolved. No more Lychee slush on the menu so she ordered Mango Pomelo Sago and Roasted Milk Tea. So we probably wouldn't have ordinarily ordered this much, but we saw that they had a special deal where if you order $20 worth of stuff, you could order one more item (from a select list of items) for just $1. In order to take advantage of this offer, our daughter ordered the Roasted Milk Tea and then we chose the Mango Pomelo Sago as our $1 item. They also have gelato here now and I was hoping to try their Hojicha gelato but there was none available when we were there. Better luck next time perhaps. Everything we ordered was delicious. Just what I needed. Loved my Mango Mango with Mini Mochi & Ice Cream. So tasty and refreshing on a hot summer day. Tried my daughter's Roasted Milk Tea and was very impressed with that as well. I'm not a Walnut person, but I do like Almond so I took a spoonful of my husband's hot Almond paste and enjoyed that as well. My mood was much improved by the time we walked out of this place.

The red bean soup is so good and not too sweet, I added sesame rice balls in it for an extra fee and the rice ball is so big with lots of filling! It was so good. The wait was a bit long which I think is because the rice balls took a while to cook. But definitely worth the wait.

The mango coconut sago ain't what he expected as there is really coconut meat on it which is nice but the dish is a bit lack of flavour. My son ordered the sponge cake with the rice ball. And they all wanted to breakout and try the pork floss dessert. I personally love it very much as it satisfy all taste buds both savoury and sweet. My son loved it and said that's the best thing in the world but my husband had a small bit and pulled a face. As we got there quite early, it was nice and quiet. The server can speak excellent English which was very helpful and she explained the type of dessert to my husband and son as well.

I got the tofu pudding + black sesame - personally I found it to be just OK. The tofu lacked it's own taste and kind of just added color to the sesame - the sesame itself had the right amount of sweetness, however it wasn't exactly pasty, it was more on the slimy end of things for me. Might consider going again - however I think there is better HK dessert places around.

This is my third time at Snack Shot. I love their tofu dessert. It's so velvety.

They have a lot of nostalgic desserts and savory snacks. The interior has a retro Hong Kong diner vibe. Each dessert is around $10 and the portion size is decent.
