Little nugget’s classes have recently taken us to all sorts of unfamiliar corners around town, and today we found ourselves on the quieter, residential side of Sheung Wan for one of his rehearsals. With time to kill, we decided to wander over to SoHo — a bit of a throwback as it’s been a while since our last visit.
Just as we were approaching PMQ, we spotted a bustling little spot across the street. A quick glance revealed a crowd gathered around a gelateria, and well… who are we to resist?
The place is called Snack Baby Gelato & Drinks, a café and gelateria sharing the same roof. The menu is tight and focused, offering a small selection of sorbets and gelato, along with a few drinks. Judging by the steady stream of customers, most were clearly here for one thing: frosty indulgence.
Here's the menu......
Sichuan Chili Mango — Sorbet made with fresh mango finished off with a nice sprinkle of Sichuan peppercorn dust. I thought the natural sweetness of mango would be complemented nicely by the extra kick but the duo didn't exactly click like I first hoped.
Watermelon Summer Burst — Watermelon sorbet topped with chewy watermelon candies. You can’t go wrong with this on a muggy afternoon like this one.
Just as we were enjoying our sorbets on the seats outside, I got a ping from little nugget’s teacher saying that they had already wrapped up the rehearsal and released the kids early. Time to make a dash back to Sheung Wan and scoop up my little one.
And hey… look who’s here now. 😄
