The tofu is silky smooth, almost custard like--it's good alone or with the ginger simple syrup. This storefront is connected to a cafe/bakery and flower shop. I was impressed by the updated interior, especially as a hole in the wall spot. Definitely add it to your list for a true Chinese food crawl in Flushing.

BLUF: Stick with the basics…read more Soybean Chan 陳豆花, once a mom and pop flower shop with a tofu pudding (豆腐花) stand, recently renovated and split into three businesses housed in one store -- a tofu pudding shop and a coffee / boba tea bar prominently in the front of the store, with a smaller flower shop in the back. We visited the tofu pudding shop twice in recent weeks. The tofu pudding hasn't been as silken smooth as it should be, and after those two visits, we confirmed we still think it isn't. Soybean Chan is nonetheless is attempting to transform this basic, low-cost dessert into an upscale treat by offering multiple add-on options. The add-ons do make the tofu pudding more interesting, but they also reduce the amount of tofu pudding received because everything is packed into one container. And the add-ons don't improve the "mid" quality of the tofu pudding. We paid $11.98, including tax, in our last visit for a 32-oz container of "Classic Reunion Tofu Pudding" with Lychee Coconut Jelly. The staff member who took and fulfilled the order forgot the Lychee Coconut Jelly. A basic 32-oz container of tofu pudding here can cost as little as $6, including tax. The shop is geared for take-out, but there are two counter-height round bar tables for those interested in eating in. Same price cash or credit. Soybean Chan has another store in Elmhurst, NY, take-out only, which offers the basics at slightly lower prices, with similar, mediocre (though sometimes better), quality. Wong Kwong Hop in Elmhurst sells a smoother tofu pudding, $4 for a 32-oz container, albeit with a regular sugar syrup, not Soybean Chan's ginger syrup.

I needed to have flowers ready for pick up at 8AM so I can take the 3.5 hour ride to Upstate NY. I called in the flowers, and was able to arrange for pick up first thing in the morning on Monday. Flowers were really beautifully arranged and was the right amount of cheer for my uncle who was stuck in the hospital for over 4 months. Thank you for making his day with the beautiful arrangement.

He then told me he always gets flowers from this place on Parsons so I googled it to write this review. I have no idea about customer service or cost or anything else, but this review is solely on the beauty and freshness of these flowers. The second I walk into our apartment, my nostrils are filled with the hypnotic smell of these Lily's...the roses are full and velvety. I'm so sad they will reach their inevitable death so I'm trying to keep them alive for as long as possible. The longevity of flowers depends on us! I change the water every day, at the correct water temperature and also mix in flower food. What a dork, right? If I ever need to get flowers for anyone (or myself) I'll personally give this place a visit. :)

I never used their florist. Looks like They hire the young folk in the neighborhood which is nice give them a job. It's not easy to get help though when you're outside. They gotta work on that.

Almost every time I disregarded bad review, I was sorry so I'm trying to do the same for my fellow Yelpers. So I grew up in Whitestone and my parents still reside there. I have been unsuccessful with other florists in the area when ordering flowers to be delivered to my mother. My mom just celebrated a year cancer free so I wanted to surprise her and recognize her. I browsed the selection on the website of flowers and plants, which were an amazing variety. I wanted to order a plant that was good luck to health. I decided to go with a bamboo plant since my mom likes them. I ordered on a Friday, to be delivered the following Wednesday (5 days later). There was some fee that was waived but still had to pay $10 for shipping-for under 2 miles. Fine, whatever, I'm over 1,000 miles away and cannot do it myself. I placed the order and it was charged to my card immediately and I received a confirmation email. Wednesday arrives. 2pm-nothing. 6pm-nothing. I left work at 9pm and never heard anything from my mother so I asked her if she received any deliveries-thinking maybe she missed it or something. She told me no. I went from 0 to 100 immediately. This occasion was very, very important. It was not a holiday where they would be busy. I never received a call or email about any issues. It was paid for. I tried calling but of course they were closed. I emailed but no response. Fast forward to the following afternoon. I receive a voicemail from Elizabeth to call back regarding my order. So Elizabeth was kind of nice and that was the only positive aspect. I was told "I received the order this morning (now 6 days after I placed the order). We do not have any bamboo plants in stock (it was listed in stock on website). Would you like me to send another plant". I am a very understanding and polite person but when a business goes above and beyond to screw something up that I paid for, I am not going to be pleasant. I think next time, I am just going to pay one of my friends to physically buy flowers and deliver them to my mom for me. There are no pictures because nothing was delivered. I did receive a refund notification via email and the actual refund went back to my card about 4 days later.
