Staff were really nice and had lots of recommendations for our kids.

The baklava with ice cream was great as well and I hope to try some of their future desserts too. It can get quite busy but they are able to get out their drinks relatively quickly.

After looking over the menu, I decided to order a large pot of Adani tea to share. It was a rich, lightly sweetened, spiced milk tea that I enjoyed. For dessert, I had the pistachio milk cake. It was decadent and delicious. Cake was soaked in milk and covered with a layer of pistachio sauce. Overall, I enjoyed my experience at this coffee shop.

The iced americano and tiramisu were alright, not the best I've had but it was decent and also a little pricy. During my visit, the cafe was really crowded so it was a bit hard to find seating when we got there. I think overall if you are not looking to go to a Tim Horton's or Starbucks and want to support local, Paramo Cafe is good to try!

Great little cafe.

He said it was too sweet for him. My mother and I got Chai tea lattes and were very happy with ours. Great flavor, lots of foam, hot enough but not burn your tongue hot. Mother wished they would pull the tea bag out before serving. We also tried the tuxedo cheesecake. It was great and tasted as expected, 9/10 ( too sweet for me). Lots of other nice baked goods and lots of baklava surprisingly but it was their 'deal of the day'. 2 gender neutral bathrooms.

Good bubble tea. Good sago. Great prices. Fast. Never a line. Best in northside…read more Location is in deep northside of edmonton. Its hidden in the upstairs suite of a buiding famous for donairs or the iconic 7-11. You can take the elevators up if youre too lazy for stairs. The bubble tea here is authentic. Same as you would get in chinatown. But in a better and cleaner venue. All the typical flavors can be found here. My favourites are the coconut or matcha green tea. The sago is soft. Best part is that they dont overcomplicate the drink like the newer places typically do. And they dont charge for this and that. Sago is included with every drink. Its $5.75 per drink unless you customize it. The service is fast and theres never a stupid line like at other bubbletea joints. Its fast like its meant to be. Get a card stamp for your purchase. I think its 8 bubbleteas. Then the ninth is free! Hours are odd. Opens typically at 1pm until late.

Came in here yesterday to treat my daughter who is a HUGE fan of Bubble Tea!…read more The location is a bit odd in that you have to go up a flight of stairs or take the elevator (in the same complex as Eddie's Donair - also good!). The Bubble Teas themselves were freaking FABULOUS! We had fresh fruit slush style mango and strawberry. The texture was perfect and smooth and the sago was just right! We wanted to order the spring rolls but they were out so we settled on a spiral cut potato chip (think french fry like) on a skewer where you could pick the dusting flavour. They were good and my daughter would most definitely want another but at $6 for two, I don't think it's worth the coin. That being said, I would most DEFINITELY come back for the bubble tea but the location is not convenient for me. They also had board games if staying and playing is your thing. I snapped a pic of the wing challenge, so take a peek at my pictures but basically, if you finish the fire hot wings within 5 minutes and no water, you get them free plus win some moola from the money pot! I may be back just to give this a try :-)

Unfortunately, the service needed improvement. The servers were slow to fill the orders in front of mine, and when I arrived at the window, my order had not even been started.

For the price and lack of service, I'd prefer to go back to my usual spots for coffee.

Dutch Delicious, if you can't tell by the name, is a Dutch bakery (with some European and German…read moreinfluence) that dabbles in a bit of everything: fresh bread, deli meats, cheeses, pastries, coffee and imported products. I've actually been into their shop once before but having just ate lunch, ended up just browsing. Well, I was surprised but happy to accept an invitation from DD for a peek inside their shop and bakery where all the magic happens. I met Siebe, owner of Dutch Delicious along with one of his bakers, Elien. Both are very friendly, humble, down to earth individuals that have a huge passion and joy for baking. One thing that Siebe kept on stressing was the fact that they use real butter, whipped cream and butter cream. You know a place means business when they use quality ingredients. Best quote of the night goes to Elien - "bad for the hips, good for the lips." One really cool thing I learned was baking cultures. There was a white one (containing 10% rye). Dutch add them into their breads to give it a more complex, nuanced flavour. The other one was rye and had been cultivating for about 8 months. It smelled absolutely amazing. I'd buy a bottle... We moved outside to the main counter where you can see some of their bread offerings. It was end of the day so only a few loafs remained. We sampled: - 5 grain bread. Light, airy, this is bread that you're normally acquainted with/used to. - Dark rye was a completely different beast. Much "heavier" and you really have to chew it. Goes well with cheese. Another great quote - "there's nothing like a good aged cheese with artisanal bread". Preach, sister, preach. - This one was my favourite: I believe it was the Canadian raisin bread. GET IT. Moving on to the pastries, there is a lot of options to choose from. They also have cakes if you're looking to satisfy that sweet tooth. What I took home from talking with Sieb - everything is made fresh, in-house with real ingredients. No shortcuts are taken. They make sure things are done the "right way" which results in everything being quite labour intensive. The saying's true - hand made always tastes better. Non-pastry related but I also got to sample (last one I swear) one of their sausage rolls. Nice and flaky, again, you can taste the butter. The meat even had a nice je ne sais quo that I couldn't quite pinpoint until Siebe told me the secret ingredient. Yum. At this point, the tour was wrapping up but I was gifted a nice little to go package of goodies. Such a kind gesture. I had soccer practice to attend but checked afterwards to see what was in the box. - Ouwe Jongens cheese. I'm by no means a cheese connoisseur but this is a old style, strong flavoured hard cheese. This will likely last me awhile. - Raisin bread. Bring me back to my childhood, except I wish I was eating Dutch's version instead of Sun-Maid's crappy raisin bread. - The rye bread comes whole. Make sure you have a hefty bread knife to cut this bad boy. Otherwise, you'll be getting a good arm workout. Where to start? If you like pastries, you'll be in heaven. What I liked best was how everything tasted fresh and creamy without being too rich/sweet. I felt like I could eat another pastry right after devouring the first one. - Cream pastry ($2.89) - the cream pastry was delightful. Light and airy, the filling was just divine. Don't make me choose but I think this was my favourite. - Apple slice ($2.69) - another winner was the apple slice. Reminded me of a turnover but sooo much smoother. The addition of raisins gave it the perfect balance of sweetness. - Vanilla slice ($2.69) - vanilla slice, my mom thought this was like a mille feuille. Incredibly light, creamy, this is one of their most popular for a reason. - Mocha cake square ($2.49) and marzipan cake square ($2.49) - seriously, sooooo goood. I preferred the mocha over the marizpan square. Can't wait to go back and try a slew of new things next time. Thanks again Dutch Delicious and crew for the treats, hospitality and insight!
