Patisserie Tony Wong, Hong Kong

Patisserie Tony Wong

I did a google search to identify some of the pâtisseries or cake shops in Hong Kong and Pâtisserie Tony Wong were one of the few I have fished out.

I am not sure if the wrong keywords were used but I did have a hard time identifying pâtisseries or cake shops on the internet. Anyway, upon reaching Hong Kong, I notice there aren't many cafés selling cakes and beverages; a quick chat with the tour guide also makes me realize that the locals aren't very familiar with such pastries.

Display I

If you have checked out their website, you can't help but to include this place into your itinerary but coming here is not easy, particularly being the first visit. The nearest MTR station is Lok Fu, 樂富 and approximately 25min walk.

An interesting place to visit as this place is closer to the heartlands and Kowloon Walled City Park (九龍寨城公園) is a nice place to take some photos. Some sort similar to our local Chinese gardens with pavilions but with a historical background.

Display II

Anyway, the shop seems to specialize in puff pastry layered with crème pâtissière (aka custard) in various flavours such as chocolate, raspberry, strawberry, mango, etc.

An ispahan-looking creation, the custard used by Pâtisserie Tony Wong is richer and curd-like. Unlike the flaky kind that collapses the moment you bite, this puff pastry is slightly dense and retains its crispness. Sweetness was just right and the overall combination was easily acceptable.

Raspberry Napoleon

On the contrary, the Mango Napoleon is a disappointment when compared to the Raspberry Napoleon. Probably due to the syrup in which the mango slices were soaked in, this has an after-taste of durian, very similar to what you will experience when you eat the cream from Jane's cake station. The sweetness of the mango is overshadowed by the custard the the puff pastries were alittle moist.

The Green Tea Opera is amazingly similar to the green tea opera of Mezza9 (minus the red beans) and since green tea dacquoise was used as the base, the overall texture is coarse. However, Yuan is alittle put off by the thin layer of buttercream, making the cake alittle oily in his opinion.

Things never goes wrong when it comes to chocolate but notice so far the pastries we had were either puff pastries or cakes. Mousse doesn't seems to be common (generally) in Hong Kong and this makes no exception with a generous layer of chocolate cake topped with chocolate mousse and dark chocolate glaze. This dessert is light on the palate and surprisingly refreshing.

There is a distinctive landmark opposite Fuk Lo Tsun and that is KCP shopping mall (I suspect it stands for Kowloon City Plaza). Also, according to the tour guide, there is a popular shop selling butter and chocolate cookies and Yuan is currently looking for the slip of paper. If he has not updated this paragraph by the time you read this, just walk along this stretch to explore bah.

Flourless Chocolate Cake

Flourless Chocolate Cake

This is one of the cakes that first caught Yuan's attention during our first visit to Kki but being a female, I tend to look for creations that are striking in their appearance. For that, I am punished for missing a good flourless cake.

Served warm with a dollop of whipped cream, this creation lacks the aftertaste of almond powder from Laurent's flourless chocolate cake has, thereby making it a very pure and dense chocolate "pudding-taste-alike" cake. As mentioned in my Laurent's flourless entry, most flourless cakes tends to be dry and crumbly unlike Kki's and Laurent's which is springy and rich.

K ki's Little Red Riding Hood

Little Red Riding Hood

One of the strengths in Kki's creations lie in minimal "contamination" (e.g. gelatin and artificial flavourings), thereby making their creations very pure in taste. Yuan describes the taste of this cake to be the closest to Valrhona Chocolate Bar, thus bringing the goodness of chocolate in every bite.

Surprisingly, I am one that don't fancy the combination of chocolate and raspberry since my threshold for sour is very low. Moreover, I am one that prefers to have chocolate mousse on its own or at the very most with hazelnut feuilletine. But setting aside these two factors (which happens to conflict my preference), I have to admit the chocolate mousse is very smooth and the dark chocolate mousse has boost my endorphins levels to the next height.

For more detailed description of the various componenets and its cross-section, check out at Ice's blog.

Strawberry Tart

Strawberry Tart

Have to give it to Ice's recommendation and many thanks to Delphine for reserving a slice of Strawberry Tart for me. I cannot describe how happy I was and definitely no regrets making a trip down to Kki ケーキ for this tart. Pretty sure I will be heading down Kki for more of this.

A simple combination of sliced strawberries, a thin layer of vanilla bean custard cream and cookie crust base; and what makes it splendid is the sweet strawberries and the buttery Sable Breton (quoted from Ice's blog).

It was only after trying the tart then I understand what Ice meant by Kenneth using good French butter for the base. I did a quick search on Sable Breton and apparently, sables means "sand" in French, thereby refering to the sandy texture of this crumbly shortbread-like cookie. Most importantly, the flavour of these cookies is dependent on the quality of the ingredients, particularly butter and vanilla extract.

I don't have to go far to rave about this since I got my answer the moment I sink my teeth into this creation. Try it and your senses will give you the answer.

No. 34, Strawberry Shortcake from Rive Gauche

Strawberry Shortcake

To define a good strawberry shortcake is very dependent on what one expects from it. I used to rave about Rive's strawberry shotcake as it is cheap (previously each slice cost $2.80 nett) until the price of each slice shot up to $5 nett.

I have previously tasted this together with the strawberry slice from Yamazaki (or Sun Moulin) and the difference isn't big. In fact, both are similar with 2 layers of butter sponge with fresh cream and strawberries as the filling.

Comparing this with BakerZin's strawberry shortcake, the difference lies in the chantilly cream, while the former uses mascarpone in its chantilly cream giving it a slight sticky feeling, Rive Gauche is lighter in taste and that the "butter" after-taste is not prominent in the sponge.

The more outstanding strawberry shortcakes in my humble opinion would be the ones stated below, for the specific characteristics highlighted
1. Canelé Pâtisserie Chocolaterie which uses génoise sponge for extra texture,
2. Arinco King which uses a chewy and springy sponge and
3. The Patissier which is so finely layered with a sugar dough base.

Jolie Fraise

Jolie Fraise

This is a new creation from Rive Gauche and each slice is $6 nett. While it is the appearance that caught my attention, I cannot deny that the combination is interesting and refreshing.

The cake is decorated with white chocolate and has a generous serving of berry mousse with a layer of berry compote on a chocolate cake base. Berry mousse is smooth with a slight jelly-like texture (probably due to the addition of gelatin) while berry compote gives a slight tanginess with a sweet after-taste. Chocolate cake neutralizes the overall taste, thereby making the overall flavour easily accepted to most. No fanciful combination but a refreshing treat.

Chocolate DeSténation

Chocolate DeSténation

Chocolate DeSténation is one of the eateries located along the Discovery Walk at 313@Somerset and adopts a al-fresco dining concept. Finally, there is dine-in areas to enjoy DeSté's creations.

Discovery Walk at 313@Somerset

For now, there are several promotions namely the dessert degustation set @ $14.80+ (daily from noon to 6pm) which includes a pastry of your choice, one chocolate bon bon, a scoop of gelato and coffee / tea.

Alternatively, enjoy a 1-for-1 Hot Chocolate on Tuesday or Ladies Night on Wednesday for a 1-for-1 Chocolate Cocktail and Wine from 5pm till late.

Piedmont Pave`

A little disappointed that their signature Candle is no longer available in individual portion and the other that stirs my curiousity is Piedmont Pave`, a combination of chocolate sponge, cream, crunchy praline and Piedmont hazelnut cream. Once again, the component that caught my attention was the gold-dusted chocolate topping. Apart from that, the entire combination of cream and sponge reminds me of a regular cream cake found in neighbourhood confectionaries. Don't get me wrong, I guess this is an effect of eating cream and cake instead of chocolate mousse.

Nougatine & Rum

Due to the hot weather in Singapore, eating this (Nougatine & Rum) gelato is almost like drinking milkshake. It has a strong milk taste and very mild alcohol content. Sweet in Fen's opinion. One thing we notice, the gelato in the freezer seems to be in molten state, not sure if the temperature is not right or it is meant to be served in a half watery state.

Chocolate Hazelnut Frappe

I was rather disappointed by this Iced Chocolate Frappé (Note that the drink is not part of the set) considering that I have just drank Chocolate beverages from Jewels and Laurent in the past 5 days. This drink in my opinion tasted closer to chocolate milk from the supermarket with some chcoolate shavings as decorations.

Macarons, texture or flavour?

Not sure have you encounter having cravings for one type of desserts but from two different places? Well, at least I did. Was thinking of heading to town for some macarons but when Yuan asked me where, I couldn't decide between the two.

Macarons

Canelé's violette has always been my favourite until Jewels blow me away with their Black Palm Island Salt Macaron. Since I can't make up my mind, I shall have macarons from both and surprisingly, my choice is actually Canelé despite their macaron shells being hollow with a tiny bit of chewy centre. If you happen to try these macarons back to back, you will notice the almond and chewiness Jewels' macarons get to offer but what left a deeper impression is the stronger flavour Canelé's has.

Our taste buds determine something good or bad by comparison. Hence, it is not surprise after eating Canelé's rose / salted caramel macarons, Jewels' seems mild in flavour and less sweet.

Mad about Chocolates

Frankly speaking, I am in no mood to blog. Just barely 4 days and my mood is getting errantic these days. After my dress fitting, I cannot resist Laurent's chocolates, indeed rationing the calories I can spare.

The recent visits to Jewels Artisan Chocolate makes me wonder how I would feel towards Laurent Bernard Chocolatier. To start off, the ambience both places offer is very different while Jewels Artisan Chocolate adopts a very contemporary atmosphere in an accessible location, Laurent Bernard Chocolatier @ Wessex is a complete opposite.

The classic chocolate tart, signature blackforest and chocolately truffle slice greeted me upon entering the shop but sad to say the cake which Yuan wanted to have is no longer available on the shelf. It is a chocolate mousse cake named in numbers, I can't remember the combination but vague impression tells me that it is 1805. So, we stick to the look-alike, Trianon ($7.80++).

Trianon

An all-time favourite, Milk Chocolate with Hazelnut Feuilletine. This creation contains 3 components found in Laurent's plaisir sucré since it consists of hazelnut dacquoise, a thin layer of hazelnut praline and rich dark chocolate mousse. The entire combination works beautifully for me however Yuan feels that the hazelnut praline is on the sweet side. For those who prefer more crunch in their chocolates, Laurent's chocolate tart is something not to be missed. If you want something different, particularly chocolate mousse, this may catch your attention.

Valrhona Lava Cake

Lava cake ($9.80++) is something I don't know how to describe, personally if the chocolate content is sufficient to my liking and that there is a generous molten core, I am more or less satisfied. Since my last lava cake is from Jewels, I have to admit Laurent is a better bet since the molten chocolate is not oily. Apart from that, Laurent's version has a thicker layer of cake when compared to Jewels'.

Iced Chocolate

We were quite surprised how fast they served our orders and sad to say, the iced chocolate drink ($7++) is prepared before hand and poured from a jug. Milk and sugar content is very little, hence one can feel the bitterness and acidity of the chocolate. Disappointment kicks when the ice starts to melt, making it very diluted.

Jewels' macarons

Macarons

Unlike our first impression, these fail to stand out when served with the Chocolate Mousse in Verrine and Hazelnut Slush. Although the macarons have its crisp and meaty shells and that they are nicely flavoured with rose or green tea (respectively), we felt that the main flaw lies in the slight watery and salty (subtle) buttercream.

If we were to compare strictly macarons with other places, this is definitely good, if not one of the best in Singapore but with outstanding chocolate desserts served back to back, we can't deny the fact that the other desserts are more addicitve.

Chocolate Slush

Chocolate Slush

Yuan is someone that is very sensitive to the type of milk used in beverages, hence his first impression of Jewels' chocolate beverages weren't postive. However, having tried the Chocolate Hazelnut Slush, he had a second opinion. With hazelnut incorporated into the drink, the milk becomes less distinctive, hence leaving an overall impression of the drink being rich and smooth.

When it comes to ice-blended drinks, it is important to have it smooth, the icy texture can be a put-off as it makes drinking unpleasant and diluted when the ice starts to melt. This was experienced when we had the Godiva's chocolixir (Dark Chocolate Decadence) and we compared it with Iced Milo blended with dark chocolate bits.

Anyway, for your information, there are only 2 iced chocolate drinks we like (till now) which is, the Chocolate Slush from Jewels and Iced Dark Chocolate Granite from Max Brenner.

Chocolate Tart with Gianduja Hazelnut Ice Cream

Chocolate Tart with Gianduja Hazelnut Ice Cream

Guess the chocolate tart from Jewels is stirring more attention and I guessed most would be tempted to compare with Laurent's chocolate tart.

Frankly speaking, both tarts are very different, while Laurent presents his tart with a crispy hazelnut base, dark and milk chocolate cream, Jewels is closer to the Caraibe of Canelé Pâtisserie Chocolaterie. The chocolate filling adopted by Jewels is closer to a huge slice of chocolate truffle that melts cleanly in your mouth. As for Laurent, it is the creaminess of the dark and milk chocolate filling with the crunch of the hazelnut praline that strikes the right chord for most.

Depending on individual preference, Yuan, being a fan of Canelé Pâtisserie Chocolaterie's Caraibe would prefer the chocolate tart from Jewels. As for me, I am more inclined towards Laurent's chocolate tart.

In this dessert, it was the Gianduja Hazelnut Ice Cream that screams attention. As what Yuan describes, it is very close to eating Praline Feuilletine minus the crunch.

Chocolate Mousse in Verrine

Chocolate Mousse in Verrine

This is one of the recommendation made by Chocolatier Then. The meaning of verrine is glass. Hence all 3 chocolate mousses, is presented in a see-through glass.

A combination of white chocolate yogurt mousse, 40% milk chocolate mousse and 66% Alpaco dark chocolate mousse, served with praline feuilletine (an ingredient where almond is been roasted with sugar and caramelized to make a smooth paste; with biscuits added for crunch), almond crumble, sesame crisps, macaron, chocolate twirls and berry compote.

This is a must-try at Jewels. With so many ingredients incorporated in one dessert, we are very surprised that it not confusing nor contaminated. The various toppings brings out the distinct characteristics of each type of mousse. For instance, the dark chocolate mousse was enjoyed with the crunchy praline feuilletine, white chocolate yogurt mousse compliments nicely with the berry compote while the milk chocolate is good on its own.

A nice symphony of the varying taste incorporated in each mouthful.

Green Tea Opera

Green Tea Opera

It is hard to find a good Matcha cake as often this flavour is not easily accepted by most. Apart from Goodwood Park Hotel's White Chocolate and Green Tea Cake that wowed us the last time round. My vague impression of Green Tea Opera stretches 2 years ago and I recalled it being thinly layered with green tea sponge, azuki paste and green tea buttercream.

Just to be doubly sure that this is good, we dropped by Grand Hyatt on Wednesday but realized they no longer have this in sliced. The whole cake (400g) is available @ $18+, with a 15% off after 9:30pm (50% off for sliced cakes after 9:30pm).

Something to note, comparing this with the old version, there is a slight difference. Instead of red bean paste, they have replaced it with chocolate and whole red beans. Apart from that, the layers are generally similar, with alternating green tea powder, whipped cream, almond sponge, chocolate and whole red beans.

Yuan simply couldn't stop once he started on this cake. The combination of matcha, chocolate and almond sponge was heavenly to him. This is the rare few matcha cakes which you have a thick layer of matcha powder over the top. The only complaint is that the red bean does not seem to serve any purpose, the taste is overwhelmed by the matcha and it makes the cake more "grainy".

Jewels Artisan Chocolate

Jewels Artisan Chocolate

At first glance, "Jewels Artisan" may give most an impression that this is a jewellery boutique but the owners of this outlet aim to bring about a chocolate experience to be enjoyed with all senses . Located right beside a live radio station (lush 99.5fm), this allows diners to enjoy every piece of handcrafted chocolates, made with premium chocolates and fresh ingredients.

Chef Then at work

Though Jewels Artisan is a new start-up, it is spearheaded by renown local Chocolatier Then Chui Foong. With her experience working in L'artisan Du Chocolate and her experience with the first open-concept chocolate kitchen (in Asia) when she was a chocolatier at Raffles Hotel, Chocolatier Then brings about a different level of visual chocolate experience with Jewels' open kitchen concept and chocolate sculptures presented in marble showcases.

Valentine chocolate art

We started our afternoon with two chocolate beverages, the Grand Cru Hot Chocolate with chocolate shavings (Made with Guanaja 70% Grand Cru) & Chocolate Slush (Single Espresso and Dark Chocolate). Both chocolate drinks are made from chocolate couverture as opposed to cocao powder.

Chocolatier Then felt that it is a misconception to conclude that dark chocolate are bitter by nature. High cocao content refers to low sugar and often has a certain uniqueness in taste, a characteristic of single origin chocolate. In fact, it is the over-roasting of cocao beans during production that gives the bitterish aftertaste. Anyway, the initial taste of the hot chocolate is milky and sweet; after-which the palette is slowly filled with the bitterness of dark chocolate.

As for the chocolate slush, apart from it being smooth, Jewels adopts a blend of 80% sweet Arabicas and 20% Robustas to compliment the richness of dark chocolate.

Chocolate Beverages
Grand Cru Hot Chocolate with chocolate shavings (complementary) &
Chocolate Slush (complementary)

At the moment, Jewels offer a Teatime Indulgence to allow one to try a bit of each at $14.80++.

Teatime Indulgence
Note that the 2 extra pieces of Nama chocolate (complementary) is not part of the set and that Teatime indulgence includes a pot of gourmet tea which is not shown in the picture.

From top left (in a clockwise direction), Blood Orange Sorbet, Chocolate Gateau, Topaz, Nama Choco and Black Palm Island Salt macaron

Blood Orange Sorbet gave us a totally new impression of what a sorbet is meant to be. Previous perception was the word sour. The Blood Orange Sorbet is smooth and mildly sour. Similar to drinking a icy version of orange granita.

Chocolate Gateau (means "cake" in French), a low sugar chocolate cake made with 85% abinao dark chocolate, is available as a whole in 2 sizes, 4-inch and 6-inch. To achieve a soft, moist and light texture, Chocolatier Then adopts a traditional method of making this cake, in which the egg yolks and whites are separated. No doubt a rich creation in which the sponge is lightly salted, thereby contrasting with the sweetness of the chocolate. Personally, we would preferred it sweet (minus the salt).

In addition, from our understanding when talking to Chocolatier Then, chocolate fudge (cakes) are made of icing sugar, hence despite refrigeration, the cake remains moist and soft. On the other hand, the low melting temperature of chocolate ganache or chocolate couverture used in good quality chocolate cakes make it alittle rougher.

Truffles & Pralines
The chocolate display with about 20 flavours to choose from

Chocolatier Then has won numerous awards for chocolate pralines and bonbons so it is no surprise her perception towards a good chocolate bonbon is very stringent. She define a good piece of chocolate to be made from fresh ingredients and melts easily at 30°C with no waxy aftertaste. Chocolate that are chewy or sweet are aftermath of excess vegetable fats (to increase the heat resistance of chocolates) and sugar (to prolong shelf life).

We tried Topaz (a Dark Chocolate with Macallan whisky), Nama Choco and Perie Noir (complimentary); and we have to admit all their chocolate are very rich and smooth, melting it perfectly in the mouth. Topaz is a must-try for people who likes chocolate with strong alcohol. The initial sweetness and smoothness of the chocolate will fill the palette but what is unique is the effect of whisky kicking in a few seconds later. This feeling is similar to having "hot air blowing out of your nose" which one would experience after drinking whisky.

As for the Nama Chocolate, despite a 70% cocao content, it is smoother than Royce's bitter nama chocolate. Thus, it is no surprise this creation wowed the Japanese media.

Perie Noir is something not to be missed at Jewels, the silky champagne ganache when eaten with Valrhona crunchy chocolate balls, is simply heavenly.

Macarons
Macarons ($2/pc) is available in 5 flavours:
Passion Fruit, Green Tea, Raspberry, Butterfly Pea Bloom and Black Palm Island Sal
t.

Having work with highly regarded confiseurs, Pierre Marcolini and at Ladurée (with Pierre Hermé), Chocolatier Then ensures her macarons to adopt the classic light crust with a meaty, soft centre. To suit the local's palette, Chocolatier Then has an interesting flavour, the Black Palm Island Salt Macaron. Using Hawaii volcanic salt and salted egg yolk innards, the sweetness of a macaron is being neutralized but yet the saltiness is kept subtle.

Dark Chocolate Lava Cake with 66% Alpaco Dark Chocolate Ice Cream
Dark Chocolate Lava Cake with Ice Cream
served with 66% Alpaco Dark Chocolate Ice Cream. ($10.80++)

Using 66% Caraibe for the exterior and 70% Guanaja for the molten core, one will be surprised by the generous delight of both chocolates. However Yuan felt that the cake is a little oily, not sure if it is due to its butter content.

White Chocolate Sorbet

Just when Blood Orange sorbet surprise us with its mild sourish-ness, white chocolate sorbet (complementary) amazed us further with its texture closer to an ice-cream. As white chocolate tends to be sweet and milky, the concept of making white chocolate sorbet, makes it a refreshing treat.

Many thanks for Business Development Manager, Mr. Joseph Wang and Chocolatier Then Chui Foong for spending time to share their knowledge with us. This is definitely an enjoyable afternoon spent at Jewels and we are looking forward to more visits.
