Scrumptious desserts at Tartes & Pop
Hong Kong foodies know it, Sheung Wan is definitely the right neighborhood to stroll  : coffee shops, street food , Korean burgers, organic coffee … But today I’ll go for pop and sugary. A nice white and orange shop, funky but not too girly, a bunch of sweet tartes on display and Thibaut, very French and chatty guy … Welcome at Tartes & Pop.
 
In the kitchen ? Lou, former pastry chef at Valrhona. His moto : there is no good choco with a bad cacao. Therefore, he only works with Valrhona chocolate.
In a nutshell : best Valrhona chocolate, tartes, traditional recipes with an Asian twist to please local’s taste buds… shake it all together and what do you get ? Some crazy little sweet pies. You want to go for the best seller ? Then Orange and Earl Grey it is. But as a French foodie I’ll tell you this, you’ll be a fool not to give it a try to the others : Apricot and Dulcey, Raspberry Chocolate, Gianduja Lemon, Banana Mango
I ate them all ! And love them all !  
 
Pssst, here is a foodie tip : try to stop by not too late in the day or you may find out that the sweet little pies you are craving for are out of stock … yes, that’s the way it is when it comes to freshly baked products.
