Sugar Hut 甜・心

Very good! Ordered the mango pomelo sago!

Amazing dessert! Their walnut paste is super smooth and flavorful!

Quick update, based on take out ... Still a solid place for the traditional Chinese soup desserts but the portion size is a bit skimpy for the price... Also, the ginger soup was a bit water downed this time.

----

Finally, a solid Chinese dessert spot.

Interior: Clean and simple - even the washrooms were clean

Service: When we went there was an older gentleman who provided pleasant and prompt service. Apparently, they ground their own nuts/seeds for the Chinese soups.

Order:
1) Hot black sesame soup: Isn't thick and gloppy like others. The texture was very smooth. Hopefully this means they don't add unnecessary ingredients to the soup.

The taste was excellent, not too sweet and great black sesame flavour.

2) Hot ginger soup with black sesame filled dumplings: The soup has a great ginger spice that hits the back of your throat but it dissipates quickly.

The black sesame dumplings were EXCELLENT. I've never had a wrapper (for this type of dumpling) this thin! It is very soft yet has enough integrity to keep the black sesame filling inside.

Once again, not too sweet at all.

Con: bit skimpy on the portion size for the price

Definitely will return.

Sugar Hut has amazing reviews on Yelp. I was really looking forward to trying Sugar Hut because of the rave reviews.

After a long drive from Scarborough, my friend and I finally arrived. We were both a little disappointed in the experience. The interior is clean and homey. Service was prompt.

I had the walnut paste soup ($5.75) and she opted for the sesame paste glutinous balls with ginger broth ($6). We both felt the walnut paste was not aromatic. My friend was not a fan of the consistency. Sesame balls were slightly better but again, average. She jokingly said it was a little more than a dollar per glutinous ball.

I really wanted to fall in love with Sugar Hut. Unfortunately, the hype was far to high. Sugar Hut did not meet our expectations. And so, the search for authentic high quality Chinese dessert in Toronto continues.

Perhaps, I will visit again to try the coconut sago cream with mango that everyone raves about, but for now, we will have to settle with this experience.
