Sweet Dynasty 糖朝 restaurant, Taipei

Another foodventure with uncle Shingo

When my girlfriend and I met up with uncle Shingo, his wife and his lovely in-laws (read about it here), he suggested to go to a Hong Kong style restaurant at the Zhongxiao Dunhua road in Taipei city, one of the most famous roads here. It's known as Taipei's fashion street, with great restaurants, bars and shops. We weren't sure about the restaurant's name, but my girlfriend somehow found out the name of the restaurant and she immediately knew where it was. The place is called Sweet Dynasty or 糖朝 (or Tang Chao) and it's famous for delicious food and especially delicious Chinese or particularly Hong Kong desserts. Let me introduce you the restaurant and the yummy desserts we had.

The Sweet Dynasty from the inside: The traditional Hong Kong style is predominant.

There's many main dishes, but we came to try their famous desserts.

Our dish was Sago soup with fresh fruits: Mmm, simply delicious!

I think this one on the left is Tofu pudding with fresh mango. Looks yummy.

After we finished the individual deserts, we ordered Tofu pudding in cask.

It says it's for 5 persons. We were 6 and couldn't finish it. It was very yummy, though.

Hong Kong styled tofu pudding: Even my girlfriend said it's the best she ever had.

The Sweet Dynasty is really a great restaurant. I can only pass my judgement on the two desserts I tried. They were very tasty. And Shingo and his dear ones also said they liked the desserts and they came all the way from Singapore to try them. That speaks volumes and also says a lot about the place, since Singaporean's are renown to be great food critics :-) Thanks again for the good company, Shingo and another time thanks for treating my girlfriend and I. You're truly a generous man.
