In the highly homogeneous Nanjing French sweet shop, the Yueshe food list that emphasizes Chinese beauty is eye-catching. Founded in 2017, Yue She Food List focuses on creative desserts based on French sweets and combined with oriental elements.
The Chinese aesthetic is not a gimmick of the Yue She Food Menu (hereinafter referred to as "Yue She"), the concept permeates every aspect of the store. In terms of decoration design, Yueshe is a new Chinese style, and the store is made into a half-house and half-courtyard style, and a large number of design elements such as solid wood and brass are used, and the space is simple and elegant. Attention is paid to details, and the tea sets, tableware or ornaments used in the shop also match the Chinese tonality, such as copper teapots, wooden trays, paper lanterns, ink paintings, etc.
The products of Yueshe are also more or less tainted with Chinese flavor. The store mainly provides desserts, tea and other categories. Each dessert has a very ancient name: Mo Chou, Walking in the Snow, Pleasing Yourself...... The main ingredients of the desserts are indicated on the menu, making it easy for diners to choose according to their taste preferences. There are also full-season desserts and limited desserts, the former has only five types of desserts and is a fixed style on the menu, and the latter is launched according to the season, in the form of a menu, with a total of six desserts in each list, which must be ordered one day in advance. Limited desserts emphasize the seasonality of the ingredients, such as cucumber, mango, jasmine, etc., in summer, and pumpkin, chestnut, osmanthus in autumn, etc., to conform to the solar terms.
The quality of the product is the key factor to measure the strength of a store, and when it comes to the dessert itself, the house can only be said to be unsatisfactory. Mochou is one of Yue She's most representative all-season desserts, inspired by the traditional snack of red bean wine. Yueshe converts the red beans in the red bean brewing into red bean yokan, and the liquor into rice wine mousse, and the two form Mochou. The mousse tastes sour, and the red bean paste on the side is slightly sweet, and the two taste better when eaten together, but if you eat them separately, the texture will be greatly reduced.
Like Mo Chou, Yanran is also the signature signature of Yueshe. Yanran is actually a rose mousse, and ingeniously, a piece of peach gum is also put in the middle of the mousse as a filling. The mousse is soft and smooth, and the peach gum is slightly chewy, and the combination of the two makes the taste unique. The dessert is made of chocolate oatmeal biscuits, which slightly neutralize the sweetness of the cream, but it will still have a greasy taste after eating it for a long time.
In terms of shape and taste, the performance of limited desserts is slightly higher than that of all-season desserts. In terms of the autumn menu of 2018, such as the makeup is osmanthus wine stuffed mousse, the surface of the dessert is decorated with osmanthus flowers, and the middle sandwich is papaya, which has a refreshing taste; The lucky bag is pumpkin flavored, and the shape is yellow ball, which is small and exquisite, cute and cute. The Thai pomelo sandwich neutralizes the sweetness of pumpkin cream, and the dessert is sweet and sour as a whole. The desserts in each limited menu are different, the ingredients are not repetitive, and the taste is surprising, and it is worth trying more than the all-season desserts.
The service of Yue She has been criticized, and the staff has a cold attitude, procrastination, often absenteeism, and even ignores the requests of diners. It should be noted that there is a certain number of desserts available at Joy House every day, and they will be sold out on the same day, so it is recommended to choose an earlier time slot.
