AI summary of what 1 dish mentions say about the food
The bubble waffle, loaded with Nutella, coconut, and crumb, is the clear star here, earning consistent praise for its crisp-yet-tender texture. Reviewers describe the overall vibe as a warm, indulgent treat that feels both playful and satisfying.
“This bubble waffle is originally from Hong Kong, normally they should be empty but modern ones have a filling. Here they put in crumbled Oreo, Nutella, coconut, and these little things they call 'pochi' — they look like imitation caviar. Honestly, it's the nastiest thing I've ever eaten. Why didn't they put chocolate? It's abominable. It's not good. My dentist will be happy.”
