100 Bites .Tell you a little secret here . You know actually girls in period will crave for more sweet stuff ?A statics indicated that girls in period will specially look for sweet stuff , even though the girl suppose doesn't like sweet stuff . For me , I am suppose to be " a dessert fetish " , so that means I will crave for more ...Thus , this also head to dessert time , surly makes me feel better and get rid of the reality .Earl Grey TeaFirst of all , have a cup of tea to get ready for the
Earl Grey Tea
First of all , have a cup of tea to get ready for the dessert . For tea , again , my best friend - Earl grey . Always come to my favorite , the only one . Their earl grey is about averge , 100 bites use organic tea bags that I think is inferior compare to the traditional one . The tea itself can't alleviate and ease burden . The taste is over light but not aromatic or mellow .
My self -select dessert platter
This is my own self - select dessert platter . Customers can choose their own dessert combination base on their interest on dessert . Since I am a "cake fetish " , I took six in once ! It look particularly stylish and delicated . 6 kinds of dessert placed decently on a black playform and the golden coat engrave form a very nice array . The whole presentation is very colourful and outsanding , even can stand comparison with the hotel one .
Homemade yogurt with raspberry crunch
For the yogurt , this is highly recommended Their homemade yogurt is just in the right texture, very smooth enough . They are very considerate since they provides two kinds of yogurt , you can chose a creamy and milky one which is more like icecream or chose a sour one that is more like yogurt . The yogurt is sour , but very refeshing , match perfectly well with the raspberry crunch .
Napoleon cake
The next one is Napoleon cake which served in a cup. It's quite a creative idea but I think the mango paste is a bit over sweet . Well presentation ,capped with a biscuit-like coverlet. Sophisticated and homey at the same time, completed with the berries . The overall texture is still very creamy with a dense buttery hint . The biscuit - like coverlet and assorted berries add marks to the overall performance .
Chocolate Napoleon
For cakes , the first one is the Chocolate Napoleon. This is surprisingly good . The chocolate flavor was dense and strong , successfully create a rich temptation . Its layers is distinctive and subtle , very crispy too . The crunch blend well with the custard cream in every mouthfuls . Coffee powder topped on the napoleon even can bring out mellowness and goes harmoniously with the chocolate hint . Just if the macaron on top was not that over sweet and give out its artificial color , it would be impeccable .
Green Tea White Chocolate Cake
For the second one , the cake is too soggy and creamy that I can't even feel any of the green tea hint and white chocolate flavor .The main point is the tastes are over sweet and is more like an ordinary cream cake . The layer and character was insipid, not recommended .
The Mango Chestnut Tart
For the last one , the multilayered texture do impress me . Mango sauce was fill up in a small tube . A very creative idea and I can see the effort they put in .U can create your own perfect balance with the chestnut mousse .The chestnut mousse is strong in flavor , with a fresh chestnut smashed on top with golden leafs , look exquisite and decent . Whipped cream in the center point to complex the flavor , very arousing and fruitful . This combination surly recieve praises .
For the macarons on the left hand side , overall it's alright . The texture is not bad , plump outlook that give a crunchy layer with a soft content . However , the raspberry and pistachio flavor both are not palatable . The overall mouthful is not creamy and smooth enough as I think the selection of their the almond powder is the fatal point to form such a sweet foundation one dimensional with a single flavor.
Overall , the layout is up to standard , surly can create a sense of satisfaction for girls . Service is very attentive and friendly , I feel very comfortable talking with the waitress and manager , they will ask you for comments or any requires .From my point of view , I think the price is still quite reasonable in Langham place . At least , you can have a long chat with friends . There are not too many dessert place in Hong Kong that is such silent and spacious . By the way , 100 bites interior design was awarded the 2012 IIDA Global Excellence Awards. It's quite impressive as dessert shop seldom got such cozy and modern ambience .
