Bittersweet obanyakis and green tea puffs

Sweets House Cha Cha (Tsim Sha Tsui)

Usually I am here for the soft serve but now they have custard puffs and obanyakis too.

When you come up from the elevators, you will see that Sweet House Cha Cha has three counters, one for soft serve, one for custard puffs and one for obanyakis.

They all had displays and easy to understand menus.

Green tea custard puff:
The custard puff had a crispier outer pastry compared to other puffs such as beard papa.
Inside the puff was lovely and cold green tea custard.

The green tea taste was grassy and I felt that it was a bit too bitter.

Matcha custard obanyaki:
The obanyaki was crisp on the outside because it was freshly made and the inner part was a bit chewy like mochi.

The green tea custard was sweeter than the one in the custard puff and also very bitter as well.

As a conclusion I liked both of them and its best to consume them straight away.

Cheese and ham obanyaki

Shop: Azukiya (Causeway Bay)

Azukiya is located next to Kashayao where they sell sweet and savoury obanyakis.


I have always wanted to try the savoury one, so this time tried the cheese and ham obanyaki.

Cheese and ham obanyaki (white):
The obanyakis were half done so it was ready in a flash.


Part of the centre was sticky so it stuck to the paper.


The obanyaki was quite tasteless because 70% of it was the obanyaki pastry which was sticky and chewy, and it was sweet as well so I did not like much.
When I got to the centre it tasted much better because of the gooey cheese.
There was not much ham.
