Dessert Paradise, Jalan Song

Do you know that the word “dessert” is from the French “desservie”, meaning “de-serve” or in other words, “clear the table”.

Dessert is normally served at the end of the meal. Normally, fruits or sweet food, such as Tong Shui (sweet dessert soup) are served as dessert.

Well, speaking about dessert, there is this place located in Precint 88, Jalan Song, called “Dessert Paradise” which serves all types of sweet food, hot and cold.

Been there a couple of times and the followings are compilation of my many visits there trying out different items from the menu :3

Fruity Dessert

Fruits are served in a big bowl with shaved ice. Papaya, dragon fruit, etc..are served with their skin on and you get a whole lot of scooping fun to eat it.

Recommended! They serve you half a papaya with lemon mousse (which is more like a pudding) inside, topped with ice-cream and 2 mini balls of watermelon. Definitely a mouth watering dessert PLUS papaya is good for ahem.

This dragon fruit setting is similar with the papaya. Really worth your Ringgit and Sen (if I’m not mistaken, it costs approximately RM2.50 for one WHITE dragon fruit in the market, plus, this is RED dragon fruit).

Popular Dessert

There is this popular and most ordered item from the menu, Summer Mago with Ice-Cream. Here are the 3 pichas of Summer Mago from different time of makan visits:

The base is shaved ice with milk and topped with honey dew flavoured ice-cream, decorated with melons (watermelon balls and honey dew cutlets) and black & white pearls. Oh, and also a piece of Wise Cottage Fries Tomato flavour. Very unique!

Don’t ask me what Mago is because I have no idea. =x It is either mango with typo error or that it is something MAGO in the dessert. LOL

Fusion Dessert

Someone ordered this, I think it’s one of the HKC (Hong Kong Chick), Joanne – if I’m not mistaken. Looks promisingly good. I will try this on my next visit.

This Guilinggao I highly don’t recommend unless you love chlorine taste. =X The guilinggao is homemade and I believe they use pipe water without filtering it! Thus, it has the very strong chlorine taste in it. Very Super Oh My Guilinggao lah..

Although the guilinggao tasted like swimming pool, the sidekicks: barley and dried longan are yummy.

Perhaps, order Ching Tang Guilinggao mai Guilinggao. Just like a friend of mine who likes to eat Taugeh kuehtiaw without Taugeh. =_________=!!

Soupy Dessert

There are several types of soupy dessert. Among them, there’s pamelo and mango soup, something like that (always out of stock one), glutinous rice ball, and this honey dew soup dessert.

It looks kinda crappy, and tastewise….so so and quite geli also. It’s just a scoop of honey dew ice-cream with honey cutlets, served in a pool of milk. =x

THE SERVICE

Not that I want to complain about the service BUT just to share with you all my superior experience from my last visit in Dessert Paradise.

During my last visit, which was 2 weeks ago, they changed to new menu (as seen above picha #1). There were several changes from the old menu, eg. price increase and new business hours.

Anyway, I thought that since it’s the new menu they might add new items in the menu, so, I was looking forward to try out something new lah. Flip from page 1 till last page, flip back, flip 10000000000 times. Still undecided on what to order (no new items in the NEW menu lah). So, in the end, I ordered the papaya dessert. piff..

Here’s my papaya dessert:

I was waiting to be served with the orange thing in a bowl of shaved ice, but instead, I got this bowl of purple stuff. SuperWahLao… The uncle must have changedashowtheychangedthemenu misheard my order.

Long story cut short, I didn’t bother to make an issue out of it. Anyway, I never tried this purple stuff.

My friends, I’m not a purple yam person. The only favourable yam food I take is the steamed or boiled Sibu mini yams. Any other yam food, be it yam basket mixed veggie, or yam fish head, or yam crackers, yam ice-cream, you name it. I NO LIKE one.

This is Japanese Yam Paste with COCONUT ice-cream and almond. It is not bad but a bit too sweet for my liking. The yam paste texture is like mushroom cream soup. It is served cold. Plus, the coconut ice-cream in here is like santan to those sweet soup dessert. So, overall, this is not bad lah.

Oh, there’s nata de coco in it. So, I quite like it. lol..

Happy Juice

They serve happy juice here. Like super happy juice!

Previously, during our meet up with the HKC and Hikaru, we had like 30 over test tubes, each tube was RM3. Now, in the new menu, the price increased to RM3.50. Ummm, is it because of us?

The test tube is a mixture of liquor and sprite/7up. Each tube is equivalent to a shot/mouthful. I think we need to order at least 50 tubes to get our Benben drunk. Super terror drinker.

Snacks

Simple french fries with strips of seaweed.

The Guo Tieh (fried dumplings) is not bad but skin too thick though. =x Can’t complain on the snacks lah, since they specialize more on dessert. Hekhek..

I don’t think it’s halal =x

Free WIFI

They have free wifi here. The wifi key is beyond godzilla-like long!
