Last month, after running errands in the area, I stopped by Craft Tea House for caffeine. The…read moreshop's located in a small plaza with limited parking. When I arrived just before 10am on a Saturday, there was a staff member and a customer, so I didn't have to wait long to order. Inside, there was a couch and a few tables for seating, and the background music was great - very chill vibes. I chose the Mango Pandan Latte ($6.75). It was creamy, fragrant, and balanced the flavors of mango and pandan very well. Minutes after I received my drink, the staff member brought out another drink for me. They said that they re-did my drink because the first one didn't have sugar, which was kind of them, but unnecessary. I preferred the first drink because it wasn't as sweet.

I heard some great reviews about this place so I thought I'd give it a try. I walked in on a…read moreweekday a little after 7 pm. I was trying to order the pandan drink my coworker recommended. Unfortunately I was told that they just turned off the espresso machine at 7 pm. I ordered a couple of their recommended menu drinks and a buko pandan tea with boba. Although the ladies were very friendly and got my drinks ready in a timely manner I wasn't a fan of the drinks I picked out. I got the t'ube and banana pudding. The t'ube only had a very slight hint of ube and was very bland. The banana pudding had the banana taste and was sweet but I just wasn't a fan. The buko pandan tea with boba was also not to my liking. However boba was fresh and just the right amount of chewy goodness. I'd like to give this place another try and hopefully make it there before 7 pm to try that darn Pandan drink! Overall it's a cute little tea house to pass some time. They have some chairs and a tv that plays some music. Only down side is the location. It's in a very busy intersection on the corner of Roscoe and Woodman. Getting there and getting out is a scary challenge since people always drive crazy there. It shares a small parking lot with a handful of other businesses. Parking is definitely a challenge during their business hours.

I was genuinely excited to try this vendor at the Ube festival in Cerritos, but this ended up being…read moreone of the most disappointing food experiences I've had in a long time. I paid $32 for a small cup of fried items and $15 for a halo-halo drink, and neither came close to justifying the price. The fried food was dry, bland, and tasted like it had been sitting out far too long. There was no freshness, no flavor--just oil and disappointment. For that price, I expected something at least memorable... it was memorable, just not in a good way. The halo-halo was equally underwhelming. It was noticeably watered down, lacking the rich, creamy flavor you expect. Again, for $15, that's pretty unacceptable. What makes this more frustrating is that this was at a festival, where vendors should be putting their absolute best forward to attract new customers. If this was their "best," I'd hate to see what a normal day looks like. Between the high prices, tiny portions, and poor quality, this felt like a complete miss. I don't mind paying premium prices at events--but the food has to back it up. This didn't. I wouldn't return, and I definitely wouldn't recommend it.

The prices are not commensurate to the type of strip mall and overall valley location that the spot is in. Also, the churros took 10 minutes yet somehow tasted stale and lacking cinnamon. This place might be for those that like to make their life hard...those that expect a treat to have drawbacks...those who enjoy paying more for less. Admittedly, good churros in the valley are hard to come by. Churro Man sucks, and Junior's Churros switched over to catering because they were the best on the streets. Come here if you don't believe me, but I promise you won't be back.

I see Churros.. and I buy one or a few! I'm usually getting Churros from a stand at a festival.. but when I saw the store, I had to go inside : ) Service was a little slow, not many people were waiting. Maybe they make items to order. My items were hot. Location is at a strip mall, lots of parking. I got the Cinnamon Sugar Churro with sauces to go. I would have wanted to stay, have a coffee and play a game or two, but I had to get home so I placed my order to go. The place looked so fun, a place to hang out for all different ages. I saw vintage toys and items for sale; the place looked like a wonderful place for a collector to have a great time adding to his or her collection. The place has cool vibes. Next time I'm in town, I plane to enjoy my Churros inside. Cheers!~

Who knew a pop-up dessert place could be this good???…read more Okay, call me a snob, but I believe a dessert location should have four walls and some little colored tables and chairs. My favorite pastry shops and ice cream parlors all fit this description. The idea of chocolate-drenched strawberries doesn't quite match the hustle and street noise you find next to a carnitas or falafel truck. So I drove by this brightly lit, cheerful, stand for almost a year before I decided I had to try it. In a war between my love of chocolate and my love of propriety, my snootiness could only hold out so long. And boy am I glad I caved! When I ordered a Dubai Chocolate Strawberry dessert, I got a big clear cup with layers of cut strawberries, warm chocolate syrup, pistachio syrup, and shredded crispy filo dough, which is like sweet shredded wheat. It all mixed together in a dessert that was TOTALLY DECADENT! They also sell gourmet Dubai Chocolate bars that have the same mix of chocolate, pistachio and filo (no strawberries). These days, I think about this place more than I should. Recently, they were absent from their corner next to Gelson's in Valley Village, and I was so worried they'd moved, I called the owner! He assured me it was only the rain keeping them away. I'll leave you with this thought. There's some amazing ice cream/gelato places around town, some terrific pastry shops, but there's only one Dubai Chocolate Strawberry stand that makes Dubai Chocolate-Covered Strawberries this good. Ya' gotta try it!

It is always fun to try new pop-up food stands, and pop-up dessert stands are a special treat…read more I just tried Strawberry, the pop-up Dubai chocolate strawberry cup stand under the Gelson's sign, on the corner of Laurel and Riverside in Valley Village. My hubby and I were helped by Jasmine, who was welcoming, sweet, and very friendly. She gave us Dubai chocolate samples, and then little sample cups of the Dubai chocolate strawberry cup topped with baked Filo dough for crunch. We wound up sharing the large Dubai chocolate strawberry cup for $18. The strawberries were plump and sweet and fresh. The pistachio cream was rich and delicious. The chocolate was melty, and as we ate, hardened into a nice little shell. The shreds of baked Filo dough gave it a very nice crunch. It was really fun having a parking lot picnic! You couldn't ask for a friendlier or nicer employee than Jasmine. She really sold it! This isn't something you eat every day because it's extremely rich, filling, and admittedly, quite expensive. But I could see myself getting a hankering and going back again one night when I'm in the mood for a sweet Dubai chocolate strawberry cup.
