A pure chocolate without any sugar or milk is one of the best foods to help our Hong Kong students battle with anxiety and stress. Chocolate can reduce cortisol (Stress Hormones), which is a great choice to calm your mind naturally and improve mood.

  • Hong Kong dessert

Who can refuse the Hong Kong dessert like milk pudding and egg tarts? According to Psychology Today, a teaspoon of sugar can help calm us down and boost energy.

One of the best places to eat Hong Kong dessert, we highly recommend is Ching Yip Coffee Lounge. We strongly encourage our Hong Kong students to Invite a friend and indulge in their incredible Hong Kong dessert, for a guaranteed pleasing afternoon!

  • Acai Berries
