We visited U Dessert Story last Thursday while in town for a concert, and overall, it was a great experience! The interior decorations were lovely, especially the color scheme and the hanging greenery, which really set a cozy vibe. Despite a few other customers being in the store, it wasn't overly loud, which was nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We loved the unique ordering system with QR codes on each table, allowing us to place orders from our phones and add them to a tab. Pretty neat!
Here's a breakdown of what we tried:
Mango Sticky Rice Bingsu - 4.5/5
A bit pricier than other bingsu places we've been to, but the portion size was generous. It came with condensed milk, mango puree, and sticky rice on the side. The mango was fresh, and I loved that it wasn't overly sweet. The only downside for me was the nut crumbles on top, which I didn't care for, but that's just personal preference. Overall, it was delicious.
Thai Tea Crepe Cake - 4/5
Much bigger than I expected! The cake itself was light and decadent, and I appreciated that it wasn't too sweet either. I didn't really taste the Thai tea flavor in the whipped cream or crepes. The Thai tea sauce that came with it, though, had a strong, creamy flavor. For me, it was a bit too intense, but I think thai tea lovers would really enjoy it!
Blue Lychee - 4/5
I wasn't expecting the lychee popping boba (I'm not a fan of popping boba), so there was a bit too much for my taste, but that's on me. The drink itself had a nice lychee-lemonade flavor, which was refreshing.
