Okrumong - Torrance

The cutest cafe, the most amazing menu. 




There is no better dessert than a bowl of Black Sesame Snow Bowl on a sweaty summer day. Finely shaved ice topped with sesame and condensed milk makes a cool, lightly sweet bite that makes you want to take another. It's a sizeable bowl, best for sharing, but it's light enough to eat on your own. 


Taiyaki are made to order, and they come out piping hot. The shell makes a crispy crunch, and the mochi-esque interior holds it all together with a chewy texture that is divine. There are no bad flavors; cheese has some saltiness, nutella is sweet and rich, custard is firmy creamy but light, and red bean is a classic. 

I've always loved Asian desserts, but these literally complete my life. Forget the fantastic bakeries, Okrumong is officially my favorite dessert in the South Bay.
