Definitely a hidden gem in Sunnyside. Came here for based on a friend's recommendation and I was surprised it was actually good. I ordered the brown sugar milk tea with crystal pearl (recommended by the staff). You definitely can taste the brown sugar, and not the artificial brown sugar flavor. As described by the staff, the crystal pearl is similar to boba in shape and clear with the texture of aloe. I really liked how it wasn't overly chewy.
We also ordered the lava custard bun, which was basically a sweet custard bun. The custard definitely oozed like lava. It was good, though the bun part was a bit hard (I prefer mine a bit soft).
Next time I will definitely come try the Pinksky (which is fresh milk, strawberry smash, butterfly pea, and cheese foam) which my friend got and it was a beautiful ombre you would see at sunset.
The staff was super friendly and there is a mini seating area inside the cafe, which they let us stay in for a while (as it was raining). This place is also affordable as drinks were...

I ordered the mango matcha drink: the matcha wasn’t prepared or mixed in a way where it was dissolved and the mango purée/mango syrup was not good. Don’t recommend. I also got the rose milk tea which didn’t have enough rose flavor. I asked them to add more rose but they said they already added the measured amount.

It claims to have a secret seasoning & the seasoning was somewhat visible but severely lacking. I will say it was very crispy, which I like, but the “seasoning” tasted like it wasn’t even there. Would...
Read moreI'm a returned customers for their grilled salmon over rice. I wasn't happy about the portion comparing to the previous few times I have before. This time was a mistake 4 leaflet of salad, 3cut square avocado, 2 sliced cucumber. I finger size salmon. The last few time when I order, there's 2 pieces of salmon of the salmon is like a one half finger size, a bunch of salad, generous 8-9 , pieces of cut square avocado. Comparing to a to go tea shop charging a restaurant price, the previous order portion is about right, not the last miserable potion, don't get me wrong, is still very tasty and I think their potion should be standardized. They should think of what they are charging as they are not a standard restaurant, give and take, portion have to be at least...
