SF Delights

Love SF delights! It’s wonderful. Especially, Coconut Panna Cotta. Also, really convenient, just on the street!

Thai coffee tiramisu served with a friendly face? Yes please! My one and only time finding this food van was at the J Pop street fair. Love their mini dessert sizes because I don’t want to over do it. They make lovely Asian fusion treats that are a real delight to eat.
Now I’m wondering how long before I’ll be able to sample their treats again. Heavy sigh…

I’ve tried this truck a couple of times now at the San Mateo night market and the desserts are ok, just nothing special. I think based on the pictures I saw uploaded here beforehand I just expected them to be better.
Most recent sampling:
The Coconut Mango Panna Cotta (
). $ 2.50. Nice mix of flavors I was a little thrown at the solid bits of Coconut inside though. There I was enjoying the nice smooth texture when I get a hard lump of Coconut. Hhmm… Found it slightly unappetizing to be honest.
The Cupcakes are also just ”alright”. Not really any better than those I can get from Safeway .
Both times I have seen them the ordering and serving system seems to be a little disorganized and confused. They give you a number when you order but then don’t bother calling it. I was there waiting for my Panna Cotta and the guy serving just put it to the side of the service window then continued to take orders from other people so I had to go and ask if it was mine and show my number. Very odd.

After a large poutine dinner at the Little Chef Truck I ended with a mini dessert here. Mango panna cotta. The cream had a good cinsistency, not too sweet with a layer of caramelized mango and sauce. I like they have a ton of things and they have mini and regular sizes for all types of appetites.

Completely not worth it. I love dessert so when I saw the truck, I wanted to give it a try. I tried mango panna cotta and thai coffee tiramisu. They are just nothing special. Both of them really plain. I couldn’t taste any mango in my mango panna cotta. thai coffee tiramisu is probably one of the plainest tiramisu that I’ve had. I will not be buying from this place again. There are just way too many other dessert options that are much better.

I love desserts. Unfortunately, this was not as great as I expected it to be.
I tried this out at the San Mateo Moveable Feast. I was expecting a lot from it reading the reviews. It was pretty pricey as well.
Bailey’s Crème brûlée: 4 stars. It was pretty good. The texture was just right at the top and the custard was creamy and thick.
Strawberry Cupcake: 3 stars. It was very light, fluffy, and moist. It had a huge butter taste to me at the first bite so I put it down. However, afterwards, I ate it again and it was pretty good. Nothing like CupKates… But it had to do since it was the few dessert truck there.
My total came out to about $ 10.85.
When I was in line some lady was arguing and yelling for the longest time about how the owner gave the last bread pudding to another customer… Guess I gotta try that bread pudding next time since its worth fighting for hahaha.

taste soooo very good even I waited so long line at San Mateo but it was good to wait! they have a mini one too, just $ 2.5. It’s just for one person. They are nice and friendly people. You should not miss it! Definitely, I will go again :)

Over-​your-​limit, been-​food-​trucking-​for-​3-​trucks-​in-​a-​row: soma street food park-​style and then a pie in the face! In this case, it was an apple crisp. warm with berries throughout and topped with mascarpone — take that ice cream! next time i’m NOT sharing and trying the tartS!

best strawberry cupcake I’ve ever eaten,
Tasty buttery icing on the top, soft spongy cake with bits of fresh strawberries within them.
for sure to make your mouth water for more.
I’m definitely going back for more!

Wow, I’m not sure where the other Unilocalers ate but we love this truck. We were so happy to find it parked outside of TJs in Millbrae. Had their chocolate cake (in a cup) with warm chocolate sauce on top. Fantastic! Went back for a second one. Would have had a third but I was full. Wife n kids got their own and loved them! Better than many of the restaurants chocolate lava cakes etc. Hope they come back to Millbrae again.
Oh, the Thai girl running the show was super sweet and gave us the whole history of her venture. Keep up the great work and wonderful treats!!!
Thanks

They now have a «Buy 10 — Get 1 Free» Card. You can fill it up with 10 different desserts and there will still be ones you haven’t eaten.
I think the pineapple trifle is great.

Delicious! I like the Green Tea Crème Brûlée and the Thai CoffeeTiramisu. I usually don’t eat desserts but for SFDelights, I make an exception!

After a small concert, I saw the SF Delights truck parked outside so I sought out something sweet for the walk back home.
Prices seemed reasonable, menu seemed interesting, employees seemed nice enough. I got the Thai Coffee Tiramisu (small, $ 2.75) and my friend got the Chocolate Delight (large, $ 5).
Tiramisu did not have a strong coffee flavor. Not much coffee flavor at all. For lack of coffee, there was a TON of marscapone. My friend’s Chocolate Delight was okay. Really dense and heavy which I didn’t care for. Chocolate flavor was nice.
Was expecting more. Still curious to try Green Tea Crème Brulee.

Sweet confidence.
Chocolate cake topped with chocolate pudding. Fittingly called the Chocolate Delight. Sounded amazing. Said so to the owner.
He replied confidently it was.
No lies sold at this truck. Just amazing desserts.

So I’m not really into the food truck craze but I’m glad I stumbled upon this one.
I am also not a big dessert guy but I was happy to make an exception for them. Our little group had a few different desserts we all shared so I got to try the bread pudding, crème brûlée and Thai coffee tiramisu and everything was delicious.
As I said I’m not one to chase after food trucks but if I pass by this one again, I’ll surely get something!

wifey and i were walking down 16^th yesterday as we were on one of our trekking expeditions… wifey can spot dessert from a mile away.
they had some pretty cool items… but once i saw bread pudding, the others just didn’t matter anymore.
it was a banana bread pudding… banana is definitely not my cup of tea… the sign said a fruit bread pudding… but it really was just banana. ugh.
minus my hate for bananas, the dessert was hot… the sauce was of good consistency… and it tasted fresh and definitely homemade. not my fave… but a pretty solid 3 stars. i prob won’t be frequenting this truck again.

Useless FPX trivia of the day: My favorite fruits are berries. My least favorite fruits are apples, pears & grapes.
Bf & I were eating our way through the mission tonight & came across this dessert truck on 16^th & Mission.
Cupcake flavor of the day sounded interesting: green tea crème brûlée ($ 3).
I went for the mascarpone berries ($ 4.75) which really was a delight. Loved the thick, decadent mascarpone. Nice mix of blackberries, raspberries, & strawberries. I might have liked it better if the fruits were fresh as opposed to frozen. The strawberry syrup made this dessert a little too sweet.
I so agree with my Unilocal homie miss Cherylynn N on her 3.5 star rating. Good call, girl. SF Delights is not just a 3, but it’s not yet a 4. I’m upgrading because this kid’s got potential.

Great potential – infusing Asian flavors into some classic Western desserts. We sampled some at the St Patrick’s day festival at the Civic Center.
1) Lychee mousse. Loved the flavor… well, love just about anything lychee flavored. but the texture wasn’t quite right though. It had a little too much whipped and not enough mousse.
2) Irish cream crème brûlée. Basically a crème brûlée with a touch of Irish crème. Subtle flavor that my partner liked, but I would have preferred juuuuuust a little more.
I felt like these desserts were really close to being really fantastic… both almost there, but just not quite.

3.5 STARS
The little dessert truck that could…
SF Delights is one of the latest food trucks to arrive in the over-​saturated food truck scene in San Francisco. With a novelty concept of fusion desserts, SF Delights is one of a kind in the Bay Area.
Currently, they have six dessert offerings ($ 3-​$ 4.95):
*Crumble Tea Tart
*Chocolate Delight
*Green Tea Cream Brulee
*Coconut Panna Cotta
*Lychee Mousse
*Cupcakes (one flavor a day)
As recommended by the friendly employee, my friend and I ordered the Lychee Mousse w/​Crumble Cashew & Fresh Fruit ($ 4.50)
I loved the concept of the Asian inspired dessert but the execution needs some work and/​or the price point needs to decrease. The mousse was merely Reddi-​wip mixed with canned lychee syrup, topped with one canned lychee and sliced fresh fruits. For nearly $ 5, it needed more oomph; not something I can readily do at home in less than 2 minutes.
SF Delights has a good thing going but they need refinement and to up the ante.
To the owner (s): I never knew you can «seduce palet». Aiya, what did I tell you about having my mom write your website content??? :X (I will gladly fix all the typos for you.)
OTHER NOTES:
*SF Delights can be found on 16^th/​Mission (next to Wells Fargo):
*Find them here on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday 7 PM — 11:30 PM
