Hui Lau Shan (许留山), Hong Kong by Gneb

I was going through my Hong Kong vacation photo album and found these colourful pictures of Hui Lau Shan’s desserts. They definitely bring back good memories.

Hui Lau Shan is a Hong Kong dessert chain (specializing in mango puddings) and you can find them all around Hong Kong. Hui Lau Shan is very popular especially amongst youngsters and tourists (like me), so there’s usually a long queue in front of the shops. The shops are typically small (hence crowded), well mind you, what shop is not crowded in Hong Kong?


The mango puddings are so colourful and refreshing!


This is mango flavoured jelly with mango slices in it, topped with mango flavoured syrup.


This is mango freeze with glutinous balls (tong yuen) in it. The “tong yuen”, when eaten with the mango freeze, are simply smashing!

The big bowl is mango ice cream with glutinous balls and mango slices. The star shaped bowl is yam and red bean jelly.

Strawberry freeze with strawberry slices.


So, Hui Lau Shan is definitely a “must go” whenever I’m in Hong Kong. I just wish that Hui Lau Shan would come to our shores one day.

My scores (out of 5):

Taste: 5

Environment: 4

Service: 3 (busy but generally friendly staff)

Price: 4

Address: You can find them in Hong Kong, Kowloon and New Territoties.
