Liang Seah has became a dessert street. We have the famous Ah Chew Desserts & Ji De Chi Hong Kong Dessert Shop, now we have Dessert First.

The shop was opened by a housewife who started making her own dessert at the age of 12. And now the lady finally fulfilled her childhood dream of opening a dessert shop.

I ordered the soya beancurd meant for 2 pax. Just like Sweet Spring @ AMK Hub, they serve their beancurd in old school wooden container. The beancurd is smooth and silky, I suppose the presentation does make the beancurd look more tasty.

We tried the mango ice shavings, they don't only serve ice and syrup but also real sweet mango cubes. I felt the ice shavings doesn't taste different from Ji De Chi though the crowd at Dessert First is much much lesser. I think if Im craving for decent ice shavings or beancurd, I would choose the quieter ambience.

it was the beginning of the long weekend, finished dinner with a fellow makan kaki along liang seah, and was thirsty for some dessert. walked down liang seah road & noticed there were seats available, as opposed to the overcrowded jidechi next door.

sat ourselves down to browse the menu & decided on our order: 1x grass jelly w/ lotus seeds & longan dressing, 1x char siew pau (comes in 3), 1x mango sago w/ pomelo

i must admit that the presentation looked pretty neat, while the tastes were quite mediocre. my thoughts, can serve up the same thing for less, in the comfort of home.

It was late and I was looking for a place to have a meal, and then I saw this signboard that said " Dessert First" and it was a sign that I should have my dessert first (and last in this case).

A simple small cafe set-up that is popular even at 10pm, I clearly lifted the average age of the consumers the moment I sat down.

There was a long list of items but I decided to have the Durian Sago ($5.50) which I found to be quite good as they use rich bitter durian puree on top of their durian pudding. It filled me up such that I did not have space for a proper dinner. One thing to note though is that one has to finish it quickly otherwise the bed of ice would melt and create a diluted solution.
