We got their mochi sampler which had four different flavours - mango, durain, purple yam, and chestnut. My favourite was their mango and purple yam but honestly, all were really good! We also got a tub of their mango sago dessert that was DELICIOUS! We couldn't have enough of it. I can't wait to go back here this summer, such a refreshing dessert spot.

Very tasty mango sago and mango mochi. The sago is really creamy, to the point that it has the…read moremouthfeel of liquid ice cream, with extra bits in it. The mango mochi also leans heavily on the cream and is definitely not a health food. If you like durian, the durian mochi is also great. Personally, I really liked the yam mochi and thought the chestnut mochi was pretty good, but most people seem to find those only ok. This place sells out on busy days, so come early if you want any of their popular items.

I wanted to give 4.5 stars to this place…read more Honestly, the mango I ordered was not the sweetest but mango is also seasonal. So I have to give them the benefit of the doubt. However, I was very impressed with how they make the ice. These are not just shaved ice made by water and add syrup like many places. Really high standard place use juice to make the ice and then shaved it. This place I think they use milk to make the ice, So it's very creamy. The corn flakes was a nice touch asking with the ice cream which makes sense. I tried the matcha one too and it was also very good. Love the mochi pieces in it and the matches powder was generous.

Something Sweet is a cute little dessert café tucked into Steveston Village, and it is exactly what the name promises. We went straight for the Frappés and let's just say, everyone left very happy. If you're not sure where to start, my top two recommends are the Mango Frappé and the Caramel Flan Frappé. Trust me on this one.

The tofu pudding was AMAZING - freshly made with a delicate soy milk flavor, silky smooth and melts in your mouth. The yam balls are equally impressive, nice yam flavor with just the right amount of chewiness. I could happily eat this all day!

I can only comment on the shaved ice not the regular food…read more I went there for shaved ice because it was hot outside walking from the supermarket. The Google map didn't show the correct entrance because the front entrance is on the street not near the parking lot in the rear. The place almost looked closed. What I like about this place is that it's not closed in the afternoon unlike some other dessert places. The place is a little dark inside and I wish they have some wall plugs for you to charge your phones. The service is good and courteous although it can be slow at times. The shaved ice is alright although they put too much condensed milk. I wish they would put it on the side so you can pour it ourselves. The sides such as qq noodles and dessert tofu are phenomenal but because they are are at the bottom the ice melts too quickly.

It was fun to eat on the tatami mats in the back - we got the whole space to ourselves since we came on a weekday. Note that the sets come in 2 and whatever tea you choose is for both people. The set was unique and very filling - it came with a mini unagi rice bowl, matcha yogurt with berries, sweet corn custard, 2xnigiri, and hojicha cake, etc. Their menu changes every few months though so best to check their Instagram to see what's new. Warning: Parking on the lot is 1.5hrs only for the whole day and they are strict and will ticket you - this includes if you are running errands earlier in the day in the same lot and had left and returned. Safer to park in the farther lot for 3hrs of free parking.

cute story behind ba ba tang. apparently the whole concept was inspired by a father's love for his…read moredaughter and his desire to create the coconut desserts she grew up wishing she had. somehow, knowing that makes the place feel even warmer and more genuine. we dropped in a little after 8:30 on a tuesday after googling "desserts near me," and i'm glad we did. tucked away in the strip mall behind costco in richmond, it's one of those places you could easily miss if you weren't looking for it. the name and logo felt strangely familiar, so i asked if they used to be on denman. they laughed and told me they were on robson instead, and suddenly it all made sense. the interior is surprisingly spacious, with lots of room to sit and relax. what really caught my eye was the large mural inspired by monet's water lilies. it gives the whole space a calm, dreamy atmosphere that matches the refreshing drinks and coconut theme perfectly. their menu goes way beyond desserts. there are cakes, packaged ramen, honey castella, canned drinks, takoyaki, fresh coconut meat chicken soup, chaga mushroom products, and an entire lineup of signature coconut and yogurt drinks. it feels part café, part dessert house, and part specialty market. we ordered the mad mango and daddy's pink drink. the mad mango tasted like actual fruit instead of syrup. bright, juicy, naturally sweet, and incredibly refreshing. every sip had that fresh tropical flavour that makes you feel like summer arrived early. daddy's pink drink was equally memorable. smooth, fruity, and perfectly balanced without being overly sweet. the name makes even more sense once you learn the story behind the brand, it feels like a small tribute to the idea that food and drinks made with care can carry a lot of love. definitely a place i'll return to, not just for the drinks, but for the atmosphere and the story behind it all.

Service is quick but if you're eating in, know that it's an open kitchen so it can get pretty hot inside. We ordered a black sesame tofu pudding, a grass jelly tofu pudding, curry fish balls, and a plain tofu pudding. They have bottles of simple syrup, brown sugar ginger syrup, and brown sugar at the table so that you can customize the sweetness of your dessert. Highly recommend coming here for dessert

The price has gone up a bit -- it's now $20 CAD -- but the quality is still just as good as always.
