Located at the end of a strip plaza, inside a Bontea shop, Nonna Lia's products are here for sale…read more It's not the easiest to find and parking can get full when it's busy. We decided to get 2 items for an event. 1) Tiramisu - perfectly balanced in flavor and sweetness. The sweet cream with cake layers, the chocolate and coffee flavors working together, a delicious moist treat. 5/5. Definitely a must try if you've never had it. 2) Thai tea tiramisu - this had good Thai tea flavor but I felt it was a bit one note in comparison to the classic tiramisu. Still good but hard to beat the original. 4/5. Price is about 20$ each and they're not huge but really tasty. Definitely a crowd pleaser for gatherings.

I have heard about Nonna Lia's tiramisu for the longest time. I love tiramisu…read more Last Tuesday, I was looking at my Uber Eats app and noticed that Nonna Lia was listed. It had all tiramisu varieties discounted by $5. Yes! What tiramisu flavour should I get? I had a tough time deciding. Classic, Thai milk tea, or earl grey? I went with Thai milk tea. This place also has gelato bars. I was curious and got a white chocolate raspberry gelato bar. I drove down to pick up my order. Nonna Lia is a part of Bontea. I was so excited to get my goodies that I didn't even bother getting bubble tea. Next time! Bontea is a couple of doors down from LaMochi Donuts. I had no problem parking in front of Bontea and heading inside. A woman greeted me. I let her know that I had an Uber Eats order. She fetched it from the fridge and handed me a nicely branded paper bag. I thanked her, wished her a great evening, and headed to my car. I immediately had the white chocolate raspberry bar. It was excellent! If you love raspberry gelato or anything raspberry, this bar is for you. The white chocolate was subtle. This bar wasn't sweet. I still dream about the bar. I need another one! The following day, I brought the Thai milk tea tiramisu to share with a friend at work. It has more mascarpone than lady fingers. It's like a decadent mousse with bonus lady fingers. We both loved how it tasted like having Thai milk tea, but in dessert form. It was light, yummy, and full of flavour. The lady fingers were perfect. Each container of tiramisu runs between $22 and $25. It's on the pricy side, but it is worth treating yourself here and there. This place is grab-and-go for both desserts and bubble tea. There aren't any seats to sit down and enjoy your treats. I'll definitely head back for more tiramisu and gelato bars. It took a while for me to finally give this place a try. I'm so glad that I did at long last. (463)

The rose tea flavour was sooo good, I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did but it was the perfect mix of floral, sweet, and tea flavoured. I love how nothing tastes artificial. For around $10, it's a pretty solid place to grab some dessert. The only downside is that they have very limited seating here. We got lucky because a table was just leaving as we arrived, so we managed to snag a small table to sit and chat. But it still gets very crammed in there when there's usually a line that runs along the same area as their seating. This spot is best if you're coming to hang with one person, otherwise it's not very accommodating for groups due to the limitations of their space. Even still, you might not score a seat right away especially if you're coming during peak hours.

She also picked up a small strawberry cheesecake. I did not go into the store, so I cannot speak about that. The cookies were a hit with the kids and the cheesecake was yummy. It was not too sweet and had just the right amount of tang. Fairly light, but still very flavorful. Pricing I thought was a little on the pricey side. It was. $103 for the small cake and 7 cookies. I guess that's probably average, but coming from a smaller town, it's more than I expected. Still happy to support small businesses.

It had good earl grey flavor in the cake itself. The chestnuts on top and pureed chestnut were pretty good though could have been a bit sweeter. The cream in the cake was light and not too sweet. Overall, a good cake if you enjoy earl grey and chestnut. Price is pretty good for what you get and the fact that you can get it same day is great!

We have heard of Korean desert Bingsu for a while, but no time to try. Tonight we had dinner…read moreoutside and want some sweet afterwards. I searched around, this store was nice and more comments. So we decided to come here. Midland is a well known location that not hard to find. There was 1 more hours to be closed, when we walked in. But the casher was not rush me. She just let us know we could scan the QR code for the menu on the table, and come up to the counter to order, when we are ready. We were debating which one to get, Golden Mango or Matcha Mango Bingsu. The cashier said Golden Mango is giving different texture, even though it's all mango flavor; the Matcha Mango is using matcha shaved ice as base, then top with Mango fresh fruit. So we final decision was the Golden Mango Bingsu. Once we ordered, we got a electric alert board. We won't wait long, the alert board was beeping when our order was ready. I went back to the counter to get my Bingsu. This desert is not big that costs $12.55+tax. Sago has no taste. Fresh mango is on the top, mango base is mango flavored shaded ice, which is like ice cream that smooth. Mango sauce as layer is in the middle of the base, which makes stronger taste. Overall, it's pretty tasty and fresh. That's another type of ice cream for me. The store was open until late night, and I was seeing couples coming in. That reminded me long time ago when we were young. Enjoy the desert and also enjoy the late night life.

I understand inflation, but I would think that they wouldn't phase out incentivized promotions, but to each establishment their own. The wait time is horrendous, and the workers all seem to be in their own space and timing for when they want to get things done. Finished tables took forever to be reset.

The employee didn't know what to do with this card, so she called her supervisor. The supervisor advised her to take the card for now so they could figure out the actual payment afterward. The employee asked me to provide my name and phone number so that when the reward programme fully rolls out, they'll provide me with a new card. This was fine until I realized at home that I had already registered online with this particular card. I used a contact form on their website to inquire about this but have not heard back. We were looking forward to trying the Ube Almond , but it was not available. We went with the Black Sugar Ginger Red Date Tea and Ube Pillows. The ginger flavour was strong in the tea.

At first, I thought the prices were through the roof, especially with what I ordered (mango purple rice), but thought the price was justified when I saw the amount of mango chunks that came with my dessert. Here's what we got: Mango purple rice 4/5 - Tasty, lots of mango chunks and good for sharing. Taro sago with mochi 3/5 - Friends loved this. I'm not crazy about taro sago though. Ginger soup with mochi 4/5 - Strong ginger flavour and came with 6 mochis. Ginger steamed milk 4/5 - I don't like ginger, but can see why someone who does would LOVE this. The ginger taste is strong and spicy! Overall, great Chinese dessert spot to check out. Interior also has the Chinese olden day tables and chairs to add to the vibe.

This is a hard dessert to make, so I was very impressed but the perfect execution. The Mango Sago was a bit expensive at $13.50CAD, but mangoes were really sweet and refreshing. The Sweet Sesame Rice Balls w/ Crushed Peanuts (擂沙湯圓) were sweet and chewy but not the biggest fan of peanuts, and I would have personally prefer them in a sweet ginger soup. But my friends really enjoyed them. Overall, really liked this place and would definitely come back! Highly recommend coming here to try their high quality traditional desserts.
