OUT Review

The name comes from the official scale for measuring sugar content in food, which sounds right: this cafe's all about the sweeter pleasures in life. Though marketed as light and healthy, large dessert and smoothie menu makes a surefire stop-off for sweet tooths in the nabe. Shoppers overloading themselves on post-purchasing calories are often found scarfing down the confections, as it's situated on the main downtown shopping street, with Huangpi Nan Lu metro station next door.
