Desserts in One U

One U will no longer my lunch hang out very soon, and what I am going to miss most is my desserts. There is no shortage for dessert hang outs, and girls being girls, we love our desserts..so here it goes.

Hui Lau Shan Healthy Desserts
It is all about mangoes . The desserts come in small servings and gives a chance for us to divulge ourselves in variety. The first is this threesome, which forgot the name, a mango cake, mango and glutinous rice in mango juice and mandolin cubes, slices of coconut with mango ice cream. We were told that the mangoes are from the Philippines.

The mango cake is simply lovely with the crust and a layer of icy cream and chunks of mango slices in between. 

Next,the combination of mango chunks and glutinous rice is good where the mango are sweet and  the chewiness of the glutinous rice goes hand in hand.
 Mango which is served together with coconut flesh  as well as a scoop of home-made mango ice cream is a simply divine.The ice cream is quite milky but each of every bites really comes with the tasty munch of fragrant mango taste.

The other trio that we had also had the two option, but instead of the mango cake, we got the mango mochi. The Mango Mochi was not sticky but it also had a little jewel of mango cream inside.Topped with shredded coconut made the overall delights even more tempting. For a mango fiesta head down to Hui Lan Shan.

Chocolate Brownie @ Vivo.
Vivo is the famous joint for Pizza for me and my buddies, but we managed to save a shot was our dessert. The chocolate brownie was nothing to shout about, but nothing to complain too. Aa fine ending of meal, it did play its part...


Petite Millie
Petite Millie is a European style dining place that is not heavy in your wallet. My post is about the desserts we had there. We had the mascarpone, Creamy Italian style soft cheese with Manfredi coffee soaked sponge fingers. I cannot even begin to tell you how amazing this version of Tiramisu is – soft 
lady fingers soaked in strong coffee nestled in rich mascarpone cheese cream lightly dusted with dark cocoa. And the macaroons, oh...yum ohh yum....the rainbow colored macaroon, where a little confusing, as we tried guessing the flavours... But they were great !
