HAPPY FRIDAY FRIENDS! In today's Foodie Friday post, we are headed for some Asian desserts at "Icy Bar". Let's go!!
It was super hot this evening so hubby & I wanted something to cool us down after dinner. We headed to Icy Bar on Kingsway in Vancouver. Never been before so we were excited! Inside, was very spacious & bright. The decor was minimal but inviting. They had colorful lights hanging & also big bunches of sticks to separate the entrance from the dining area.
Hubby ordered the red bean crystal tapioca cake. I had a bite of it and was pretty good, had a good amount of red bean in it & the cake was not too soft or hard. Simple presentation on a long rectangular plate.
I ordered red bean, green tea mochi icy! This was definitely stuffed to the top. It came with a side of condensed milk so you can pour as much as you desire on top of your icy. Inside the bowl had of course shaved ice (not flavoured), matcha mochi, red bean mochi, red bean & vanilla ice cream. Once I drizzled some condense milk on top of the icy plate it had more flavour to it, was defnitely very refreshing on a hot Summer evening. My only complaint was the mochi. It wasn't fully cooked because it was still chewy and hard, & not the good chewy a mochi has. Otherwise the matcha & red bean flavour of the mochi was delish!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend & thank you so much for reading and joining me on this Foodie Friday post!
Love, Linda
