The weather in Penang is hard to predict. It's raining heavily today and next day it's a hot day which make you sweat. This kind of weather make lots of people fall sick.
Whenever it's hot weather, I always feel like having some desserts. When I have time, I usually cook some Chinese desserts or herbal tea for my family.
However, for the past few months I have been really busy and I found a place that I could have different kinds of desserts whenever I feel to have some. I went to this place with my family and try out some of the desserts. And few weeks ago, I revisited with a bunch of friends again to try out the different varieties of desserts offer by Sweet-i.
I would say most of the desserts there are not too sweet compare to other desserts place that I have tested before. And each desserts in Sweet-i were full of ingredients. You can see it for yourself from the following:
