Thomas Trillion (Hong Kong, CHINA) ★★★★☆

After a rare meeting at Fortress Hill, I wasted no time to hop over to one of my favorite pâtisseries. Looking through the glass window into the kitchen, chef Thomas Lui seemed to be long gone by now.



Thomas Trillion has long been considered one of the best local pâtisseries in the business and definitely one of the most expensive one too.

I was shocked to find that there are still great selections available this late.



Akina ($60) - Matcha tea biscuit base with mango compote and matcha tea mousse. 

It was super smooth and silky. The mango compote provided a nice contrast in flavors to the matcha tea (7/10). 




Rosy Rosa ($60) - Chocolate breton biscuit layers with griotte compote, earl grey tea and dark chocolate mousse. 

The base was a little nutty and that went well with the griotte compote and chocolate mousse. The addition of earl grey tea was a very nice pleasant surprise (6.5/10).




Still the most reliable local pâtisserie in town hands down. Treat yourself to something sweet and delicate here when you happen to be visiting Tin Hau.
