Just imagine you’re in Johor Bahru with your family or friends and have wrapped up a late dinner. You don’t feel like returning to your hotel room or driving back to Singapore just yet — so, where can you go? Well, if you’re craving something sweet, why not swing by Hey Yi Dessert 喜二糖水 at Mount Austin or Sutera to feed your dessert cravings? Oh, they stay open till 2am, too — making it an ideal supper spot!
I hope you’re not the indecisive type because the menu features over 80 options of traditional desserts, light snacks, and a few mains. Good luck if you get spoiled for choice if you are.
The ambience is casual and designed to look somewhat like a Hong Kong cha chaan teng, complete with bold red tiles, pictures of iconic HK celebrities from the 1980s, foldable tables, and metal stools.
Prices start at RM4.90 for traditional hot tong sui options like Red Beans, Fuchuk Barley, and Mung Beans. Fans of nut-based desserts, usually in the form of a thick paste, can go for the Peanut Soup (RM6.90), Sesame Soup (RM6.90), or Almond Soup (RM8.90).
If the weather is unbearably hot, cool off with a line-up of cold tong sui choices such as Gui Ling Gao (RM9.90), Passion Fruits Aiyu Jelly (RM6.90), and Longan Tofufah (RM5.90). There are also beancurd-, grass jelly-, milky ice-, and snow ice-based desserts available — perfect for any age group or palate.
Feeling a little peckish and desserts just won’t cut it? Nothing to worry about. You can order light, savoury snacks like Curry Fish Balls (RM6.90), Fried Chicken Pop (RM12.90), and Sweet Sauce Cheongfun (RM4.90) — haven’t they just thought of everything?
Psst… there’s more! They’ve just launched a whole new matcha series. You can now look forward to additional options like Matcha Milk Sago (RM14.90), Dirty Matcha Mochi (RM13.90) and Crushed Peanut Matcha Milky Mochi (RM11.90), just to name a few.
