Watermelon & Asam Boi Tart

RM15.00 ยท 6 Reviews

A forever favourite here! I personally really enjoy how Marcusโ€™s desserts are borderline savoury like this tart โ€“ the tartness from the asam boi is super prominent while the watermelon is there to provide more freshness than sweetness. Amazing butter crust as well!

Run by MasterChef Asia 2015 runner-up Marcus Low, this minimalist spot takes sweet treats down an experimental path โ€“ think funky sweet and savoury combinations. From fruit tarts to plated desserts, there is much to try, so bring your girlfriends along and spoil yourselves silly. First-timers, go with the Watermelon & Asam Boi Tart (RM15) that's sweet, sour and all kinds of refreshing. If youโ€™re here in time for the specials (after 7pm), donโ€™t miss the unique Claypot Rice (RM15) dessert โ€” a combo of glutinous rice and warm barley pudding, bamboo leaf foam and rice milk snow ice, served in a claypot.

Very refreshing (from the watermelon), but mostly sour (from the asam boi custard). The flavours just blend extremely well as the watermelon helps cut through the tanginess. Love the little mint jelly on the top for added subtle sweetness.

Reminds me of cut fruits with Assam powder, but chilled version. Delicate dessert, and creative too!

They serve special desserts after 6pm, and do check out before you go!

This refreshing tart has just the right amount of sweetness & the bonus is its subtle assam boi flavour. You'll either love it or hate it ๐Ÿค“ #madhatterdesserts #sugarrush #dessertporn
