Only downside is some of the employees. I've been here on a few occasions where it was evident that some of the employees clearly don't want to be working there and look absolutely miserable. It doesn't really affect me too much - my friend and I actually thought it was a little funny how miserable someone can look in such a colourful place - but it definitely makes the overall service and experience there not the best it could be. Just smile! And a random tip: THIS PLACE SELLS BUBBLE TEA. I didn't know this before but there's a PresoTea attached to this place so they sell bubble tea too! There's a huge variety of flavours of milk teas, slush, and toppings to try. I'm glad there's a place very close to home that can satisfy both my froyo and bubble tea cravings :)

I remember years ago when I first stepped into a real Chinese bakery. Actually, it was probably…read morethe first time in any real authentic Chinese place. I grew up in Scarborough (yes...Scarberia, Scarlem, ...blah) and Chinese food was your standard sweet and sour chicken balls, fried rice, egg rolls and fortune cookies. Thank the Lord that I went to UofT in downtown Toronto. It was an education in people, places, and things!!! I got to experience many flavours of Asia. Especially food from different parts of China and surrounding countries. It was wonderful, but I never liked was their desserts. Always found it artificial tasting, lacking in basic amounts of butter, milk, sugar, even technique. I didn't expect much walking to Hui Lau Shan, however, the business has done a wonderful job of modernizing and making the shop comfortable. Numerous seats and bench for you to plop yourself down and enjoy a meal on tables that have been made by one of the staff's significant other. Fun fact! It turns out that this is a chain from a famous dessert place back in Hong Kong. Here is a wiki on them: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hui_Lau_Shan The story of how this location was put together and opened was quite charming and cute. One of the owners came to Canada over a decade ago and wanted to have her favourite dessert place. Worked with a couple of people and opened up this franchise. Standing next to her husband, they recount the tale of how the place opened and what they wish to accomplish. The main attraction at HLS is the MANGO. They take painstaking steps ensure that they get the right variety and do their best to ensure that it is just ripening. Much detail to the freshness is seen in all their ingredients and finished products - they will not sell their mochi mango balls if they have been sitting for two days. Production must be well thought out. Their are plenty of choices on their menu. So many items in both to go cups and sit down and enjoy goblets. The number of ways they can produce a mango dessert is mind boggling. The way they prepare and plate is well thought out too. My personal experience and review, is based on the hospitality of the place, and the takeout that I had. I ordered a mango pomelo sago drink, and 6 of their mango mochi. WOW!...flavour explosion. Move over ice cream and waffle joints, move over french cafes, and Italian bakeries. Asian desserts have landed! You can really taste the freshness of the mango, the sweetness and just the little tartness that I like. Their sinful mochi is stuffed with a generous chunk of mango and dusted in coconut shavings. You cannot stop at one...or even 2. I had my espresso after the mochi as I didn't want to spoil the taste of each bite. I think that there is an HLS nearby and hope to have the same experience there, but I will make a note to drop by here if I am running through Hamilton. OR hmmm...any Commuting Yelper can pick me up a dozen please!!! Cheers!!!

Calling all Mango lovers out there! Rejoice for a menu filled with mango options from mango sago to…read moremango pancake! The cute little dessert place will surely be a popular spot for late night cravings in the heart of downtown Hamilton. The owner is a cute couple that I was able to chat with. The wife loved this chain of dessert cafe in Hong Kong so much she and her husband decided to open a location in Hamilton. They ensure the freshness of the products they serve and everything is made fresh the day of, even if the process takes longer, their integrity is there. That is why I loved this place! Their Mangoes are perfectly ripe and sweet and they use the smaller mango that has a better taste and texture compared to the big mango that's more stringy and not as tasty so you are paying for quality ingredients. You can just tell by the colour that the mangoes will be sweet. I loved their pomelo mango sago, mango pudding with in house milk sauce and topped with mango chunks, the mango romance is a trio of mango mochi, sago and mango ice cream, a bit of everything to try! My hands down favourite though, would have to be their Mango coconut noodle dessert. I loved slurping the smooth and cool coconut flavoured noodle dripping with their Mango sauce. Boy that's a treat for me because I've never had something so unique and tasty! Durian lovers can enjoy a thin pancake filled with fresh whipped cream and durian. They also sell fruit teas as well. This chain has become popular in China, Malaysia and South Korea. I know that they will continue their success here as well because they are far better compared to chains like Sugar Marmalade, that have tasteless fruits in their desserts from my past experiences. Drop by today and check them out! I'd be here a few times a week if I lived in Hamilton or at least weekly if my wallet allows me to!

My absolute fav chocolate store in Toronto! Every time I'm near the Distillery District, I have to…read moredrop by and buy things. On a hot day, I grab gelato, and if it's cold, hot chocolate. If you haven't tried the hot chocolate here, try it -- deep in flavour and smooth in texture, it's not something you can get at other places. The Mayan hot chocolate is intense, with a little spicy kick. YUM! The staff are always cheery and check you out quite efficiently. The store has a glass window in the corner where you can see the cacao beans being ground up, and the display is straightforward and colourful. Located in a historic building, the store has a charming, cozy feel. Out of their chocolates, I love the Old School (dark) bars, with just two ingredients -- ground cocoa nibs and cane sugar. Apparently, like what chocolate was back in the day... no heavy processing and a unique crumbly texture.

There is nothing (QSRs) else in this section of the plaza and this was the only store open in this section. The entrance to plaza is also a bit hard to get in specially if you are new. We ordered a box of 30 with three flavours. One of them vegan. It is really appreciated that there are good decent vegan options. Group wanted to try the new baklava flavour. The individual gave us a couple samples to make sure we wanted that as he said customers comment that is extremely sweet. And he was right, group felt it was way too sweet. The order took a bit longer and I am guessing they had to redo our order as the flavours got mixed up. The same individual gave us complimentary puffs, we asked him not to add any flavours to make it vegan. And they were delicious as well. Thank you for excellent customer service. All the flavours just as we liked them. The vegan ones very good - cinnamon sugar.

I came in after seeing the sign for banana pudding which was sold out but it was an excuse to try something else. Ordered a croissant bread pudding and enjoyed the fresh taste of this twist.

I had ordered a London fog latte which was not bad at all but paled in-comparison to the pastry. Would definitely want to try other things they offer!

The chocolate is smooth and fine and very distinct with the flavours. Also tried the mayan hot chocolate, classic hot chocolate and cappuccino. Definite standout was the mayan hot chocolate with a great blend of muted sweetness and lively spice. Finally, got the chocolate cookie which was pretty tasty and nicely chewy. Space is a split between a chocolate factory and happy hippy seating area. Prices are what prices are these days. Vibe is welcoming and casual. Definitely a place to go back to again and again!

There's seating and everything! And you can see chocolate being made in the back, so that's cool. I'd heard plenty of good things about their chocolate torte, so I got that and their chocolate chip cookie to try. Both are absolutely incredible. The torte is just so delectable and addictive, as it's been infused with this intense chocolate flavor that I found irresistible. Ditto the cookie. And neither concoction is too sweet, which I appreciated. Just a deep, rich chocolate taste. So good. I'll definitely be returning and if I lived in the area, I'd be there all the time.
