OLD SCHOOL HERBAL DESSERT!

Original Herbal Shop 正宗凉茶馆
4/18 Edited to

... Read moreIf you're a fan of nostalgic flavors and traditional remedies, Original Herbal Shop in Balestier is a must-visit. The shop stands out for its commitment to using authentic herbs and time-honored recipes, making each dessert not only delicious but also beneficial for health. I highly recommend trying their signature HK-style Kwai Leng Guo herbal jelly, available both hot and cold, which soothes the throat and aids digestion. Beyond the jelly, their menu includes unique options like longan stew with papaya, red dates with ginkgo nuts, and a refreshing ginseng honey suckle chrysanthemum tea. The herbal drinks are not just tasty but crafted to support wellness, perfect for anyone looking to enjoy local flavors with health benefits. The cozy, slightly old-fashioned atmosphere of the shop adds to the charm, making you feel like you've stepped back into a Hong Kong herbal tea house. For visitors and locals alike, stopping by this heritage shop offers a rare opportunity to savor traditional desserts that are quickly disappearing in today’s modern food scene. It's a great place to take a break, enjoy a cooling herbal jelly, and learn about herbal culture while supporting local businesses preserving culinary heritage.

@paparchsg has just opened a new physical store along Arab Street. I’ve tried their cheesecakes 2 years ago and their basque cheesecakes are still as good. It’s simple but so well-balanced in flavours that you wouldn’t find it too rich or overwhelming too creamy. You will find yourself keep going a
