Beautiful Memory Dessert

The V17 (which is the Coconut Iced Base W/​Grass Jelly, Mangos, and Green Tea Ice Cream) was really delicious. Finally, a place that serves green tea ice cream like how it authentically is – slightly bitter. The grass jelly and the mangos were finely chopped, but the toppings were still a little sparse. Traditionally in Hong Kong, the toppings cover the base so that it is not even visible.
The menu dictates that V17 comes with green tea ice cream, but they will swap it out for vanilla if you want. It’s nice to see that they’re flexible with little things like this. Also, the menu has a picture of a dessert with mango ice cream, but they never had it to begin with. False advertisement?
The service was really slow. They’re currently looking for part-​time and full-​time employees.
Take-​out was slightly disappointing, as there were less toppings. I understand that the lid takes some of the space, but the mango juice could be filled even more.

I stopped by here before my flight back to Florida. My friend and I shared two desserts. We had the mango pomelo with grass jelly and this red bean with vanilla snow ice thing with glutinous balls. It wasn’t bad and wasn’t great. The items were kind of watered down but okay enough to satisfy my cravings.

Literally everything about this place was mediocre besides the ambiance which was pretty cool. Ordered the watermelon sago, mango sago, and some other dessert that wasn’t worth remembering the name of. The watermelon sago was literally watermelon juice with a few chunks of ice in there. Solid ²⁄₅ stars. The only reason you should really come here is to sit and chill with your friends to kill time.

I’ve been to Beautiful Memory Dessert in Chinatown and rated it okay. It was only okay because the seats were extremely cramped but rent ain’t cheap in Manhattan, so makes sense. I remember the fruit being really fresh and pretty appetizing and cute. Originally, to tell you the truth, I had planned to go to Kulu, since I’d never been. Kulu was super busy, and flooded with teenagers and since we had walked by BMD, I thought to myself, why not.
Coming in, I was happy that there was a bathroom (girl’s gotta use the bathroom y’know), which needed a key but was still pretty clean and fully equipped, unlike the one in Chinatown. As Katherine C. mentioned, it is really hot in here. It was pretty cold out, but we were extremely, extremely warm once we got in. We ordered a combo, which is probably the best thing to get. I think we got combo c — it consisted of «ice cream» base with chia seeds and fruit and jelly, mango mochi, and mango pomelo with is basically mango pulp with tapioca sprinkled with a little bit of pomelo (for those who don’t know, it’s like a super large grapefruit, the sprinkled pieces are kinda tasteless). They didn’t have the mango pancake, which I really liked. The only thing I kinda felt off about was the mochi — it was kinda warm and I prefer my mochi Japanese style aka refrigerated. Either way, the fruit was fresh as in the other BMD. Plus, they have 10x more seating and more space.

Came here after a movie for dessert with my boyfriend. When you first walk in this place is decorated really nicely, it feels like you’re in Manhattan. But, it is EXTREMELY hot in here. Plus it smells like durians which I abhor.
We ordered the first combo which comes with mango pomelo, mango pancake (there’s a durian option but I already mentioned I despise them but if you like them it’s an option) and another mango dessert that comes with Thai black sticky rice. Everything tasted really good but I think Kulu Desserts is better because in the mango pomelo comes with more sago which makes it thicker and gives it more texture, they also give pomelo which gives it more of a tart flavor and there’s more mangoes which are just my favorite part. The Thai sticky rice was just okay, it was more sweet than the mango pomelo, I think they could have flavored the rice better it was pretty tasteless in my opinion. They also just used a huge slice of a mango, they could have cut it up because it makes it difficult to eat and share. The mango pancake is a thin pancake with mangoes and cream on the inside. I was super convinced that they used a durian pancake for the outside, I couldn’t really smell it and I’ve never had durian but I felt like it tasted like it smelled. I tried sniffing it but my boyfriend told me I was crazy so I really hope they didn’t get lazy and use a durian for a mango dessert.
Customer service here is iffy. The girl working at the counter saw my boyfriend and immediately lit up because she was excited to serve someone good looking but once she saw me she had a sour facial expression. There’s nothing wrong with thinking he’s good looking but they should provide good customer service for everyone regardless of what they look like and she really shouldn’t make a face if he’s already with someone. It’s not like she would have had a chance with him anyway.

I wouldn’t come back again considering there are other dessert places around like kulu. I ordered a mix fruit sago and it tasted weird and the mango wasn’t even sliced.

I recommend this branch of beautiful memory desserts if you have a bigger group of people (4 or more guests). They offer more seatings and space for customers to dine in. I must admit, the interior design has left me speechless compared to the other branches of beautiful memory desserts.
I was welcomed by the employee when I came in with a big smile on their face. The staff is very kind and knows how to treat their customers well.
I recommend getting half mango half grass jelly with green tea ice cream. Mango with grass jelly is actually a pretty delightful combination. Beautiful Memory Desserts offer many unique desserts that will not disappoint you. For example: Snow White. Snow White has so much toppings that I was afraid to try at first. However, I tried it and I must admit Snow White is now my personal favorite.
I will definitely come back here to try their other desserts. :)

My first experience in Beautiful Memory Desserts was actually GREAT! The desserts they brought out looked exactly like the picture. I ordered the mango and grass jelly (herbal jelly) I loved it! But it was quite expensive for two it was $ 19 & the music is very loud. It gives a teenager vibe but i had my grandma with me and other family members, so we had to head out because of the music. OVERALL: i would come back!

This is a chain dessert spot but this was one was terrible. I came here with a group of 8 people or so the order was taken wrong. Most staff do not speak fluent English which may cause miscommunication, our order was taken wrong. Primary language they speak is mandarin. I came them one star because nothing tasted good, it was even worst than Kulu. I was very disappointed.

We walked and only had to wait 2 minutes. After I’ll order there is some miscommunication but they gave us two free orders. The food I order was okay. I would recommend this place for hang out area.

When I entered the Beautiful Memory Dessert, I was introduced by the nice, aesthetic décor and lighting that made the place welcoming overall.
I ordered the Snow White Shaved nice, but for $ 6.25, I don’t think it was worth it, especially how much ice If it was for a lower price, then this price would be more appealing and justified.
Containing basil seeds, longan, banana slices, mangos, and etc., the portion was small, yet presentation was neat.
Service was not bad. Really friendly and open to questions & opinions.
Snow White did not give a good impression about Beautiful Memory Dessert, but I’m willing to try this place again, try the other desserts, and give an updated review in the future.

Came here for some dessert after dinner one night. New dessert spot. Had the Papaya with Glutinious Sticky rice in a vanilla cream sauce. It was decent. I like the sweetness from the vanilla cream sauce. Also had Mango Pomelo Sago Sweet Soup. This soup was average. I thought this would have more of a Hong Kong style dessert flavor, but to me it seemed average.

Came on a Sunday evening. Not much people but the seating is scarce, but comfortable. The order took really long, and my group of 4 only ordered a couple things. Not bad, but similar to Kulu. We ordered the pearls with vanilla ice cream, it was pretty good! It’s mediocre but the only thing that bothered me was the 20 minute wait for 4 desserts. This place is a one time only thing, and will probably find myself back in Kulu instead if I ever crave Chinese desserts.

First time here for their cold desserts of course. I had the double mountain and the durian pancake. Both were okay. Service was spot on. The staff took care my table well. Everything was done neatly and nicely. Very friendly service.
The Double Mountain comes with one scoop of vanilla ice cream and one scoop of green tea ice cream with grass jelly and vanilla ice. The green tea ice cream tasted more bitter than other dessert places which was shocking. Rather just a hint of green tea with a load of sugar, it actually contained more green tea flavor than other dessert places. Overall the Double mountain wasn’t overly sweet which is to my liking.
The Durian pancakes are not what you would imagine. It’s not a pancake. There is a sheet of this green doughy texture that wraps the durian. It is packed with a large amount of cream and there are four pieces/​servings on one plate. The ratio of cream to durian is very noticeable in appearance and in taste. It was too much cream to consume and very heavy. The fragrant of the durian pancake was spot on. However, there wasn’t enough durian in the whole dessert plate.

no more. Not suggest friend go there. Sorry. I need wait 15mins for peanuts rice ball, that why they say «too difficult to cooking this .» And I will say they don’t know how to cook peanuts ball. Hahaaha it’s funny they would say that. You don’t know how to do, but you are working must do it. All desserts sold out its mean they don’t know how to do some desserts. Customer Service too bad. :/

Yummy hong Kong style desserts, but this spot is relatively new, I believe. The staff doesn’t know the menu that well. We asked for a specific menu item, which the staff said they didn’t have. Then the bf found that exact item in the menu. Other than that, the staff is nice and try to be helpful.

Weird. But good enough for me to finish it. The base of their dessert is either mango juice or vanilla shaved ice and then topped with whatever you like. Nothing special. They also ran out 2 of the items I preferred. Eh, won’t be coming back here.

Taste bad compare with other dessert shop. And so pricey. Mango Pomelo consider ok. But the Walnut soup taste bad. I’m sorry I think I won’t recommend friend to try.
P/​s: all the dessert used plastic container. Not environmentally friendly:(

New spot on the block where I find myself about 3x a week for dim sum and grocery shopping, I have been craving to pay a visit. After reading fellow Elite, Cynthia D.‘s review, I came the very next day. No questions asked, dived right in for the Combo 1, which comes with 3 different mango themed desserts, I LOVE mango. Sorry to say, but there were both good and bad things about their sweets.
The best part were the Mango Mochi Balls, ripe delicious mango chunks inside a small little sticky goodness covered in coconut shavings – an order comes with 3 balls. The combo also came with the Mango Pomelo Sago, ooey gooey mango soup (very much like nectar) with cute star shaped jellies swimming around. The Mango Black Glutinous Rice in Vanilla Sauce confused me, I did not understand why the black glutinous rice was made into a ball. Did not look appealing, no flavor nor did it contribute anything into the soup, Although I have to admit the vanilla sauce was pretty darn good, tastes just like vanilla milk and it was slush!
There’s a promotion going on right now where if you made a purchase of $ 10 or more, you would receive a free order of pudding. In the case of getting the combo tonight, including tax my damage was around $ 16 and change, I got my free item. They added red bean to it which I thought was very clever. Rice is very bland, so the red bean pretty much helped.
They sure took a risky move setting up shop just a block away from Kulu Desserts. It’s a battle, ready or not? I’m coming back for round 2.

Beautiful Memory Dessert opened its Brooklyn location! Welcome!
I have to admit that I did not have any high expectations of this place because it was just mediocre in the other branches. BUT I decided to give it a try since it is new in the neighborhood. I did not regret my decision!
I got Combo #4 which comes with Mango Pomelo, Mango Mochi, and the Snow White. Fruits are indeed fresh and they are quite tasty. I am not much of a sweet tooth but their fresh fruity desserts — Mango Pomelo with star jelly won me over! Mango Mochi was impressive. So soft and chewy; leave me wanting more! The tall, skinny guy (Ken, I believe?) did a great job making them! Mochi was made on the spot which is a major plus!
Décor is very classy and neatly organized. It is just a bit small and tight but you can always take your yummies to go!
Dessert competition on 8^th Avenue is heating up! Oh yes!
