Nam Dae Moon Rice Cake

With my friends been there for almost 5 times??? They constantly come out new desserts!! I really love their desserts with sticky rice and red beans etc, most of them tastes not too sweet but purely enjoyable!!kinda both nutrient and tasty, comfort desserts tho!

I have been to this location 5 times since I live nearby. I have tried many items, some are amazing while others are so so but I kept coming back for the amazing ones. I really love their taco cakes, they're cute, tasty and light. I'll say that the chocolate is the best then next is the chestnut. I'm not a big fan of their mochi cakes, it's a tad bland than what I like though it seem to be selling well. FYI those are heavy and filling. If you want a savory item, go get the pork floss mini mochi cake. It doesn't stretch much as I expected yet the flavor is great. I also got my hands on the melon cake which reminded me of Japan. I never thought that I could find one over here for such an affordable price. The cream and the fruit were harmonious. This will be a fun surprise for parties. This place has a few tables inside for dining in.

A few of us tried a few mochis for the first time at the Burnaby location. The review is only based on the mochis. The ratings are from 1worse to 5 best star. All the mochis had a nice smooth texture and were a decent size. Mango mochi – 4 star – filled with fresh mango and light whipped cream. The mango was just ripe. Not overly sweet. Slightly mushy. Durian mochi – 5 star – if you LOVE Durian, you won’t be disappointed. It’s filled with fresh durian I am not a durian fan but I could smell it even before it’s opened and light whipped cream. A bit on the pricey side, over $10 with taxes. Purple Sweet Potato & Sweet Red Bean mochi – 3 star – the four of us all agreed it looked prettier than the taste. Blah tasting. The place is located off Imperial and Royal Oak in Burnaby. There are 2 locations on the west coast and one on the east coast of Canada. When you walk in, not all the choices are visible. I am not sure if they sold out early or it because they only offer a limited quantity per day. Note the menu on their website isn’t the same as the one posted at the store. I would have tried the matcha mochi. There are a couple of interesting combinations salted egg yolk if you love trying different things. Over the top on the packaging.

We enjoyed going to the Richmond location and we are happy to see another location open up closer in Burnaby. For myself, the rice cake snacks feel very unique. I recommend trying their signature items before trying other flavors. One downside is I didn’t see any free parking nearby. Only city street parking.

Love the Soybean glutinous rice cake and redbean glutinous rice cake the most. They're soft and chewy. Very nice to see the package with reusable insulation bag that keep the products cool or warm.

I just came yesterday night, and I come to the shop again today. Their rice snacks a fantastic, and their service is awesome. They provided a I insulation bag for each purchase without additional charges to make sure the snakes does not affect by the temperature. This bag of snakes cause me only about 20 dollars, so I feel it worth the price. I will definitely revisit the store.

Very underwhelming. Got the osmanthus rice cake and it’s very bland except for the syrup on top. The texture is not fluffy nor soft. Maybe I have to resteam it? But there’s really no osmanthus flavour beside the syrup. Very pricey for 10$… just some bland stiff rice cake… I know they’re not supposed to sticky like mochi, but I was expecting a lighter texture, between a and but it was weird and stiff. It’s IG worthy tho, nice decor and nice staff. But overpriced and underwhelming. UPDATE: finally figured out why the texture is weird. After resteaming and forcing down three more pieces. The bottom 30% was not properly risen. So it had the texture of a gummy muffin… the top 70% part is how it’s supposed to be though - dryer, slightly fluffy. Hope they improve their technique soon!

Already a big fan, and came by the new location here with mom for Lunar New Year treats. The black sesame glutinous rice cake is so good and perfect for the occasion. Also tried their new persimmon mochi - so good! It's so juicy and exploded in my mouth - highly recommended.

Nice and efficient service! First time at Nam Dae Moon, so wanted to try a variety of items - the Chestnut & Date and Sesame Glutinous Rice Cakes, and Mango and Taro & Dried Meat Floss Mochi. Favorites were the mango mochi and chestnut & date rice cake. The black sesame relied on its loose topping for flavour, but the chestnut/date flavour was strong and built into the cake itself. The mochis had ample filling but at $5 to $6, isn't your everyday treat. It's nice that they have both sweet and savoury options. Unfortunately they're best eaten on the day of or within 2 days short shelf life, so I couldn't purchase more at once. Will be back for some of their other offerings in the future!

We had a matcha strawberry cake 4 small pieces The cake part tasted weird was “chewy & sticky” and couldn’t taste the flavour of MATCHA The colour of the real cake wasn’t good as their post. Moreover, the portion and size were really small and cost 13$ If you assembled them together, it would just be a slice of 6” cake.
