スイーツを味わう
Some of the sweetest things in life come through a straw! Boba tea may have originated in Taiwan, but it's exploded in Seattle Southside (we even have a Bubble Tea Trail!). A variety of sweet tea, fruit, and coffee-based beverages are combined with add-ins like tapioca pearls, fruit jellies, and pudding to create satisfying textures and flavors. TeaCup in Des Moines offers a Vietnamese take on the boba classics (try the fresh-whisked matcha!) Natalie's Sugar Cane and Desserts (located in The Eatery at Lam's Seafood) has a fresh sugar cane juicer right in front, so you can watch the show of sugar canes being pressed while you wait for your order.
Of course, you can't talk about the PNW without mentioning coffee. But there's a lot more to try than just frappes from famous chains that started in Seattle. Drip & Sip is a cute little corner cafe in Tukwila that specializes in Vietnamese iced coffee, a super strong coffee with sweetened condensed milk. The house specialty, Salted Coffee, is topped with a salty-sweet milk foam that's the perfect complement to the sweetness of the coffee.

There's nothing like cooling off with a sweet, cold treat when it's hot out. Or cold out. Or really, any temperature is good for iced treats, if you ask us. Seattle Southside goes beyond your grandma's scoop shop to offer you icy flavors beyond your expectations. Kakigori Dessert Cafe, for example, elevates their Korean-style shaved ice (called bingsoo) to a whole other Instagrammable level with their flavors and decorations, like cute (and fully edible!) frozen animals that top their treats. And if you'd rather get something warm, dessert waffles are also on offer topped with all kinds of deliciousness. At SomiSomi, a rotating menu of soft-serve flavors is served up in a fish-shaped waffle cone (called ah-boong in Korean) or in a cup if you want to skip the cone. And if you want something a bit warmer, their taiyaki (fish-shaped waffles) come filled with sweet fillings (like custard, red bean, or Nutella) or cheese if you want something savory.
もう少し南国風のものが食べたい？デモインのSweet D'liciasは、メキシコ風シャーベット、ニエベ・デ・ガラファと、かき氷の専門店だ。ストロベリーのような一般的なものから、タマリンド風味のエキゾチックなものまで、涼しくリフレッシュできる。
Halo halo is a many-layered dessert from the Philippines that features ice cream, shaved ice, fruit jelly, pudding, and other toppings to make a cool, sweet, textural sensation, and there are a few different places in Seattle Southside you can go to enjoy this Pinoy delight. Max's Restaurant serves their halo halo along with their Filipino classics like sisig, crispy pata, and, of course, their famous fried chicken at their full-service restaurant. For a quick-service experience in Westfield Southcenter Mall, Jollibee's halo halo and fried chicken offerings are a delight, but expect to wait in line - this location is always popular, since it's one of only two locations of the popular Filipino chain in the state of Washington! ChowKing Chinese, also in the mall, has its own halo halo if you're not up for the wait at Jollibee's.

Mmmm, baked goods. Whether you believe pastries are strictly for dessert or are more flexibly for breakfast, baked goods are beloved around the world. We're lucky to have a location of beloved Taiwanese chain 85°C in Tukwila, where you can find beautiful milk buns, puff pastries, and more. Looking for classic Mexican pastries? Look no further than Las Delicias Panaderia Y Antojitos in SeaTac, where the conchas are pillowy and delicious, churros are made perfectly, and treats are served warm from the oven.
At Zain Restaurant & Bakery Cafe in Tukwila, you can find fresh baked goods made by an in-house pastry chef. Don't miss the light-as-air puff pastries, fluffy slices of coffee or coconut cake, or rich pistachio baklava. At the adjoining Tawakal Mini Market, you can pick up boxes of assorted treats such as a caramelized peanut bar and butter cookies made in traditional Somali style. They're just faintly sweet, making them a great snack with coffee or tea.
There are also two of the best mochi donut places in Seattle Southside - Dochi in The Eatery at Lam's Seafood and Mochinut located in Westfield Southcenter Mall. Mochi donuts combine the fried deliciousness of a donut with the soft, chewy texture of mochi, plus they're cute, colorful, and perfectly photogenic.
Red Ribbon Bakery in Westfield Southcenter Mall specializes in Filipino flavors, like their amazing Ube Overload cake, which is naturally tinted a deep purple from the color of the ube root, a sort of cousin to the sweet potato. Also in the mall is Boo Macaron Bar, a spot that focuses on many-hued macarons, the adorable French filled cookie that is beloved by Instagram. Treat Cookies in Burien (located right next to the Highline Heritage Museum) offers a wide variety of cookie flavors that rotate in availability, from classics like chocolate chip to the more exotic like root beer float or peach pie. All of Treat's cookies are impossibly soft, even a bit doughy in the center, and incredibly delicious. They regularly have a vegan flavor and a gluten-free flavor available.
キャンディのように甘い
Of course, no list for sweet enthusiasts could be complete without talking about candy. The big name in confections here in Seattle Southside is Seattle Chocolate, our very own local chocolate factory, where jcoco and Maeve Chocolates are manufactured. You can go for a tour, a tasting, or just swing by their showroom to pick up sweet souvenirs. Want a sweet secret? On Saturdays, the factory sells their "seconds" - that is, candy bars and truffles that taste just as sweet, but aren't pretty enough to sell for full price, so you can stock up on your favorite flavors and save money!
If you want a wide variety of candy, Lolli and Pops in Westfield Southcenter Mall offers everything from chocolate to gummies to cotton candy and more. Their broad selection of fine confections and adorable pastel decor are sure to sweeten your day. Also located in the mall is Pacific Northwest chain Candy Tyme, where buying in bulk is the name of the game.

Step into Auntie Irene’s in downtown Des Moines and you’ll immediately feel the warmth and coziness of this community cafe. For more than 25 years…
(デザートだけではない
もちろん、素晴らしいデザートがメニューにあるレストランも外せない。シダーブルック・ロッジの カッパーリーフ・レストランは、新鮮な地元の食材に重点を置き、季節ごとにメニューを変えているので、メニューは常に変化している。変わらないものがひとつある。デザート（とデザートカクテル！）はいつも素晴らしい。季節のフルーツがメニューに登場し、少なくとも1つはチョコレートをふんだんに使ったメニューがある。デモインの「Auntie Irene's」には、あらゆる種類の焼き菓子のメニューがあるが、中でも「Donuts in a Cup」と「Cake Pops」は特に人気がある。
Chontong Thaiには、マンゴー入りもち米のような伝統的なタイのデザートに加え、生春巻きを甘くアレンジしたバナナロールがある。13 Coinsでは、デザート・メニューすべてがご馳走だが、中でも濃厚でしっとりしたキャロット・ケーキは格別だ。シャープス・ローストハウス（Sharps RoastHouse）で燻製肉でお腹を満たした後は、スモアにインスパイアされたキャンプファイヤー・ロッキー・ロード・パイ（Campfire Rocky Road Pie）で、蚊に刺されずにマシュマロ・ローストの味を堪能しよう。
そしてもちろん、パシフィック・ノースウエストのデザートといえば、チェリーパイを抜きには語れない。デモインのトスカーナには、あらゆるフレーバーのパイがあり、完璧なバター風味のクラストが「ここはパイ天国だ」と言わせる。
