People in Hong Kong always try to balance their meal. If you have something spicy then you should balance it with something cooling. This meant we would usually finish our meal with something cold and creamy, such as this delicious coconut cream sago. If you finish your meal with this sweet treat, it will leave you feeling refreshed and soothed. Sago is available from most supermarkets. Eat it simply like this or add fruit; cold melon is our preferred choice.
