There seemed to be many homeless people hanging out on the street outside the place when we visited. They have a few parking spots and that was good. Place was busy when we walked in and continued to be busy throughout our visit as we decided to have our dessert at the place. Information was written in Portuguese but workers spoke English and were very helpful. I went with a passion fruit mousse. It was very rich and sweet. I had about 1/4 and that was enough for me for the day. I took the rest home to enjoy another time.

First, I appreciate that in these times, the price has gone up, but is still more affordable than other local competitors, which is much appreciated. It's also nice to see so many other boba shops open up in town--many/most of them are franchises/part of a larger chain. When I think of local businesses, I am thinking here and Eggroll Cafe near UMass Lowell. I had the lychee tea w/boba (my go-to), and it was refreshing, boba very chewy. I'll have to try others/check out some of the dessert selection, too. Glad they are here!

Nice little locale convenient to UML and river walking. Nice, patient staff. This adorable little nice cream stand was started by the same peeps who put together the most delicious elevated pub grub kitchen in Dracut, Fortune and Flame, located inside The Boat on Mascuppic, which is also very much worth a visit if you haven't been there yet. Just like F&F Kitchen, F&F Sweet Bar delivers on their promise of cozy, happy food, and left us totally full and happy we came.

We arrived on a Saturday night after 6 PM during the Chinese and Vietnamese New Years weekend so I…read moredidn't have great expectations for what would be left. Everyone knows that you have to get to a Chinese bakery early in the morning for the freshness and availability of all their wonderful delights. The dessert/cake display case left much to be desired. Again, it could have been that we arrived later in the day but it didn't seem like there was anything pleasing to the eye. Usually I get super excited and over order the typical Chinese sweet treats and end up with a box full of green tea cakes, sponge fruit cakes, mango custard, and sweet rice cakes. I didn't care for anything here except something called the "Triple" baked bun with was three separate baked buns stuck together with custard, taro and red bean filling. The baked buns are displayed on a rolling bakery cart with each group of buns labeled accordingly. There was a great variety of baked buns that included taro, tuna, hotdog, pork, and one that I've never seen before, "Steak & Cheese." We had to get one to try. Prices were a little higher than the usual Chinatown fare at $1.50 or $ 1.75 for most of the baked buns. My husband and I split a regular steamed pork bun that was filled with the usual pork filling, hard boiled egg and Chinese sausage that is common among all baos. I'm not sure if it's because we were already ravenous, but the pork bao was pretty good. I'd definitely get another one.

I saw this place on a list of 'Yelp's best empanadas by state' so I added it to my list of places…read moreto try. As this is Latinx heritage month, seems like a perfect time to finally check them out. This is a tiny little store front. Most of the building is taken up by kitchen and storage. There are 2 two-tops and 1 four-top table for dining-in. Tables are very nice and the area was clean. An open kitchen over looks the dining area. A cashier stand, where you order, is to the left of the entrance. Menu boards are located on the wall above the open kitchen. A cooler across from the cashier holds bottled soda, water and tea. The cashier was super personable and answered a couple of silly questions from me. (I always have questions. So many questions!) I had to try the empanadas of course and they offer several varieties. My SO got himself a pepperoni pizza. We both grabbed bottled soda. We had an opportunity to chat a little with the cook too who is also very nice. A parton who is clearly known to the staff came in and had a long, friendly chat with staff while we ate. Just before we left some high school students came in. This is absolutely a neighborhood spot. The pastry on my empanada is very good. Flakey, thin, holds together well. I would have preferred less pastry for the amount of filling. Most bites were air. The ground beef was seasoned well enough but I think I was looking for more spice and maybe a little heat. Still, it was enjoyable. The vegetable empanada was bell peppers, onions and mushrooms with a little bit of cheese. Same result. I was looking for more filling, spice and heat. Don't get me wrong. They are good. I did enjoy them. And for all I know, this is the way abuela makes them. Everyone has their own preferences. This is just me. Take it as you will. My SO enjoyed his pizza. That's all I got from him. Sorry I can't elaborate. This is a small store front right off a neighborhood. On street parking is free. You may have to walk a bit from your parking spot, but as mentioned, this is really a neighborhood spot the locals frequent. There does not appear to be a public restroom inside. I didn't ask. Staff were lovely. Food is good.
