  • We were selected as the "Best Vietnamese Desserts" in Los Angeles by LA Weekly

    “While food courts rarely offer surprises, there are exceptions, including one located in a supermarket food court in Rosemead. A display case filled with a colorful array of rainbow-hued desserts and beverages awaits you at Hien Khanh, the SGV branch of one of Little Saigon's leading sweets purveyors. The vivid, almost neon colors can provide a guide to flavors, particularly with the sticky rice desserts: green for pandan, orange for a spiky, southeast Asian fruit known as gac in Vietnam, and yellow for the infamous durian fruit, known as much for its stench as it is for its rich, custardlike texture. Desserts made from glutinous rice flour and using coconut and coconut milk feature prominently, as do tapioca, cassava, mochi and sesame balls. Che, Vietnamese dessert beverages, come with a variety of add-ins based on drink size. Sweetened beans are a popular item, with che bau mau — literally, three-color dessert — a real favorite.”

  • "I LOVE LOVE LOVE Vietnamese dessert, and this store did not disappoint at all!! The desserts all tasted fresh, chewy, and delightful. Not to mention, the coconut dressing (the best part)-- I just wanted to pour a whole cup into each of the dishes because it was THAT good. Also the portion sizes for the price?! Amazing."

  • "My favorite little Vietnamese dessert spot. So authentic I feel like I'm in vietnam with US prices. I really appreciated the explanation menu instructing customers what all the items are. My favorite is the mung bean layer jello. I also love the mung bean with sweet coconut milk."
