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.

We had such a blast here!…read more We skipped dessert at the restaurant we had dinner at to come here. My wife got the salted Carmel frozen thing on the menu and I got the Oreo toast. Flavor was delicious and so was the presentation. The place is very nice with live edge wood tables and a very notably nice bathroom. We had the place to ourself but I think this would be a fun spot for a group of friends to come as well. The family that runs it is very kind and they took great care of us. Finished off the night with some amazing rooibos tea - highly recommend this place if you are out in Steveston town!!

The dining space is small but the decoration inside makes you feel like you transported to a different country. Marshmallow Thick Toast 4/5 The toast was about an inch thick, well toasted outside with a pillowy soft center. There's some melted chocolate on the bottom that added to the smores vibe. The marshmallows on top weren't very thick, so it melted to an even layer with perfect browning. The toast was cut into 9 pieces so it can be shared but given the portion I think 1-2 people would be fitting for this dessert. We weren't too hungry, so we shared amongst 4. Jasmine Tea Jelly 4/5 I really liked how fragrant the jelly was and that the jelly was a softer jelly that reminds you of Aiyu jelly. The after taste was a bit bitter but I feel like that tells me it was brewed and made and not just bought to serve. It's served with a splash of half and half I believe. To-Go I wanted to try and compare all the tea flavored jellies they had, Jasmine, Oolong and Earl Grey Tea Jelly. Packaged with small packets of the half and half to add later. The best was OOLONG 5/5- it had a slight roasted tea flavor that was refreshing and comforting at the same time. What you would want from a milk tea. Second best was Jasmine - fragrant and less bitter than the one I had in restaurant, typical jasmine flavor that's lightly floral and not too heavy Earl Grey 3/5 - it was good if you like earl grey like me, but it has an intensely strong fragrance and flavor that might be off-putting if you're not used to the taste. It was by far the strongest floral taste and smell of the three. I'd definitely be back to get these to go, they carry well and you can cross borders with them :)

Finding authentic Taiwanese food in a city like Richmond, which is already full of amazing dining…read moreoptions, is not easy--but this place is truly a hidden gem! We stopped by at lunchtime at first, but they weren't open yet. Since we really wanted to try it, we called again in the evening to confirm their hours before heading back--and we're so glad we did. The service was excellent from start to finish. They were incredibly patient and took the time to answer all of our questions thoroughly, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The food did not disappoint. All the Taiwanese snacks we tried were delicious and full of authentic flavors. Our absolute favorite was the shaved ice--it was refreshing, perfectly textured, and just amazing! Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for genuine Taiwanese food and warm, attentive service. Definitely a 5-star experience!

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.

The decorations are dated and they have a couch and TV riiiiight behind the ordering counter, lol. God bless the Chinese uncle that owns and runs the place... he and the lady taking the order barely spoke English, so we stumbled with our Mandarin. I think they even spoke Taiwanese with each other?!? Instead of ordering multiple drinks, we just ordered the one mango lover's coconut pudding. Honestly, we didn't know what the heck we ordered and we ordered it to go. It took a little while to prepare, but when it came we were presented with a coconut wrapped in cellophane. We were intrigued and had to open it right then and there. We were treated to a coconut FILLED with fresh mango, mochi, and pudding... all in a fresh coconut - the coconut meat was thin, so you knew it was juicy and fresh! My oldest kid did his best to claim it all for himself as we all wanted a taste. In the end, we did the only thing logical and had to order a second. I would absolutely, hands-down, recommend this place. The family that owns the place deserves our patronage and they've earned it in their own humble way. God bless.

One of the highlights is their soy pudding, which comes in small, medium, or a huge gallon-sized bucket. We went all in and bought the big bucket for $18 CAD -- totally worth it. The restaurant itself is small with just a few tables, but the food speaks for itself. Along with tofu and soy pudding, they also sell a great selection of dim sum-style snacks and several varieties of soy milk, including regular, black bean, and ginger. Everything feels homemade and thoughtfully prepared. Parking is conveniently available right in front of the restaurant, making it easy to stop by. If you love fresh tofu, comforting soy pudding, or unique snacks, this place is definitely worth a visit.

Great alternative to ice cream (too much dairy) or bubble tea as this is more than a drink. The ambiance is simple, and clean. The service is fast since it is all ready to go. We tried: Jasmine tea- so light and refreshing. Great to clean the palate or want something lightly sweetened. Perfect for any non-dessert person and you'll be pleasantly surprised. Red bean matcha mochi- omg... so good. Love the additional mochi texture. Matcha was perfect, rich matcha but not too bitter or sweet. The combination was perfectly done. Triple coconut milk latte- the perfect morning 'coffee' dessert. Sooooo good. Love the coffee flavor with coconut milk. The layering provides a nice explosion of flavors in your mouth. I would have this than coffee any day.
