Restaurant Reviewed: U Desserts at Butterworth

Talking about dessert, im really afraid of the 'dead sweet' from the artificial sweetener like sugar or syrup. Dessert should make you happy as a snack between or after meals not worry for being fat. This post, im going to introduce a shop that sells both traditional and modern desserts: U Desserts. 
KC, my sister lured to this dessert shop saying the desserts are very good especially the durian series. I have to confess here im not a durian lover but well, for the sake of family time, i agreed to go with Mrs. Lor and her on condition that they sells a lot more other than Durian series. 

Cover page of the menu
Its located about 100 meter from Chung Ling Butterworth, a place local people called 'Cheh Chu' a.k.a. green house, which the official name is actually Kawasan Perindustrian Teras Jaya (click here for map). Just facing the busy road of Jalan Ong Yi How... cant miss.  Upon entering, we were handled a cup of water and menu. I then surprised of such service. 

Decent but comfy environment
Basically they serve 3 main series: Durian; Mango and Traditional Chinese desserts. Decided to order 1 from each series but was told the durian flavoured already finish but can order others and add durian meat (wow..) and so we ordered: 2 from Mango series and 2 from Traditional Chinese series. 

Clockwise from top left: (1) Mango in Black Glutinuos Rice, (2) Red
Bean Pasts with Ginko and additional Durian Meat, (3) Mango in Sago, (4) Pureed Almond and Black Sesame
My Pureed Almond (white) and Black (Black) Sesame was surprisingly good. They give option of hot or cold and i choose cold. The texture was smooth but not to the very fine extend. I tried each on thier own before mixing it together. 3 flavours in 1 bowl :P  i always so greedy when it comes to food >.< :P

Mrs. Lor ordered Red Bean Paste with Ginko with extra durian meat (to compensate no more durian series dessert, she is a durian lover). And KC ordered Mango in Sago. We then ordered a Mango in Black Glutinous Rice to share share.

Whats more precious than a short family chit chatting ?
Portion is big and environment is pretty comfort (we sit in aircon area). We continue to chit chat after and the waitress refilled water for us so im comfortable with this restaurant. Hows the rating? (-1 = no good; 0 = neutral; 1 = good)

Overall Atmosphere = 0
Service = 1
Food Presentation = 0
Taste/Texture = 0
Price = 0

TOTAL SCORE = 1/4, will go there again if happen to be around there. 

THE VERDICT: U Dessers in fact never fall to the trap of general people does, the desserts we are were decent. If only the flavour of each individual ingredients, i.e. mango, glutinous rice, ice cream has bolder characteristic and yet harmoniously balanced, it will be perfect. But im already surprise a chain dessert shop like this one can maintain at such quality. Looking forward for a better round when i next return. 

Useful Tips:

(1) They accepts minor customisation 
(2) Aircon or Open Air seating area of choice
(3) Very wide variety of choices
