    Crème Baked Brule Milk Latte
    Rupel J.

    Really yummy! I couldn't taste the flavor of the crème brûlée so much but overall this was delicious. The owner of the whole Plaza was kind of rude though and didn't let us sit there to finish drinking our Boba because he said we had to order actual food to stay in the area. The sitting itself isn't even that nice so that was a bit annoying lol

    Rise and grind on a early Monday morning for a doctor appointment in Chinatown where very few businesses are open. Zhen Pin Cafe is located inside Mott Street Eatery (former tenant Grand Harmony), now a food court with abundant seating which is open at an early hour. I sorrowfully miss Grand Harmony, a dim sum restaurant. With a family member we ordered coffee $1.75 and herbal ice tea $3.50 respectively were very mediocre, but I was very dehydrated from NYC's plaguing humidity and it got the job done. The herbal ice tea was very bland and average. Customer service is average.

    THE BEST TARO SAGO EVER! also the best canto steamed milk pudding. Everything was so fresh and tasty. The desserts are not too sweet either. This stand is located inside the Mott Street Eatery food hall.

    The weather was in the high 60s today. I stopped by Zhen Pin Cafe with my mom for dessert. Two weeks ago, I tried their yummy Egg Tart. I decided to order the Original Yogurt Ice Cream ($6.50). I was disappointed because there was no yogurt flavor. The ice cream tasted like durian flavor. I am not a fan of durian. Note: There were two restrooms toward the back of the food court. The additional restrooms were downstairs.

    Yummy drinks, my favorite was the brûlée latte. There was only one woman making all the drinks but they came out pretty fast. Kiosk didn't work because of wifi issues so we ordered at the counter. This is inside the food court so it felt like the typical casual food court atmosphere.

    Been craving a lemon and honey tea. After checking the menu, they have it. The employee greeted me and asked what I would like. I ordered a large hot lemon and honey tea. It was made really quickly and hot so be careful. Thank you.

    Coffee latte and passion fruit jade dew
    Marci A.

    I got the passionfruit jadedew and my friend got the coffee latte and they were both pretty good. The only reason this place isn't five stars is that I wish mine had a little more sweetness or passionfruit to it bc it was quite clear and not as "refreshing" but the latte one I was actually impressed by. We were able to order in the machine and it took them maybe 5mins to make our drinks. Then we sat at a table inside the court and while the court is a little loud, we really did enjoy our tea.

    We came to this eatery and found this store. The baked Brulee milk latte is absolutely delicious. Filled with black sugar taste, anyone who like Boba must try. Portion is huge too (24oz? ) Nice lady at the front... very helpful and friendly.

    One woman operation in an Asian food hall was decent. Discount for paying cash. Could've had more red bean in it tho.

    This Baked Brulee milk latte taste so great that is beyond the words... Adding crystal Boba is a must. The milk and the cream cheese on top is very rich and creamy. Along with the deep unique black sugar taste and the chewy boba (pretty nice chewy), the combination is just unbeatable. I've been a fan of black sugar Boba but this one just beats alot of big chains. The portion is huge as well.

    Came across to a eatery in Chinatown. The eatery was spacious and there were many seatings. We were pretty comfortable. The drink from this store was good. My friend got a Baked Brulee and I got a Vintage Hong Kong Latte.

    Came across this store on Mott Street and tried their milk tea. The baked Brulee is absolutely delicious. I added the coconut jelly. With the flamed cream cheese cover, it brought out the rich and creamy taste of the drink. The black sugar added a unique taste.

    I've had Ten Thousand Coffee on my to-go list for the LONGEST. I finally went for the first time…read moreand there were so many drinks I wanted to try so I ended up buying 3. 1. The Jeju Green Tangerine Matcha honestly just tastes like a tangerine selter drink but in the best way, because I don't typically enjoy seltzer or carbonated beverages. I really enjoy the flavor and the carbonation isn't too strong, probably because I brought it home to drink. I don't really taste the matcha but I would definitely still order this again. 2. Matcha Einspanner. This is my first time having an Einspanner so I have no idea what I was expecting but this is DELICIOUS. It's so silky and smooth and the TASTE is just right up my alley. The matcha is light but you can still taste it. Absolutely, would drink this all the time if I could. 3. Purple Sweet Potato Latte. This. This. Omg, why haven't I tried this sooner?! The first sip and initial taste, I almost tasted nothing, just milk. And then all of a sudden, there's an explosion of flavor in your mouth. As a sweet potato lover, I was in heaven. I have absolutely no words for this drink, just try it. 100/10 recommend. This is probably my favorite one out of the 3 that I bought. I went around ... 2:45PM on a Friday and most of the seats were taken, if I remember correctly. There were a decent amount of seats and the space was decent. I liked the minimal aesthetic they had for the design of the interior. Not to forget, the staff at the register was absolutely wonderful, she answered all my questions, she's so sweet. I think I'm disappointed that I haven't tried this place sooner. Y'all get out of your comfort zone and try the Purple Sweet Potato Latte !! Or if not, just try this place out. I will definitely be recommending the Purple Sweet Potato Latte to all my family and friends.

    The shop was nice and clean and it wasn't too busy when we stopped by…read more I ordered the tiramisu einspänner, which was exactly what it sounded like a generous dollop of tiramisu on top of an einspänner latte. While it was a fun and unique drink, I probably should have opted for something else. The topping was literally like actual tiramisu rather than just tiramisu flavoring, and it felt like there was more ice and tiramisu than latte. Personally, I would have preferred more of the tiramisu flavor without the full tiramisu texture mixed into the drink. That said, it was an interesting concept and I'm glad I tried it. I'd definitely be open to coming back and trying another latte on a future visit.

    I probably never leave reviews in general, especially negative ones, but this experience was so…read moreegregious that I honestly felt like I had to say something. I've worked in restaurants and bars long enough to understand that staff drinking happens, but this was on another level entirely. I came in with a group of friends and one of the bartenders, Will, was so visibly drunk that it made the entire experience uncomfortable. Slurred speech, wobbling behind the bar, taking orders while chewing food with his mouth open -- it was honestly embarrassing to watch. He looked like he absolutely did not want to be there. At one point, my group had been trying to get his attention for another round for quite a while while he stood around talking with coworkers. We then watched staff take a shot together, and when he finally came over he burped mid-conversation and literally had whatever he had just been drinking dribbling down his neckbeard. That was the moment where the whole thing went from unprofessional to just gross. What made it worse was that it didn't seem isolated to one employee. Throughout the night we watched staff openly taking shots and drinking behind the bar like it was a house party instead of a business. There's a difference between bar culture and complete lack of professionalism, and this crossed that line hard. One of the friends I was with actually frequents the DUMBO location and said that the last time she was there, the same bartender also seemed intoxicated, which makes this feel less like a bad night and more like an ongoing issue. The DUMBO location itself is in an amazing spot, which makes it even more disappointing. But ownership seriously needs to get control of what's going on there before someone gets hurt or the place develops a reputation for having drunk staff on the clock. Unfortunately, the experience was uncomfortable enough that my girlfriends and I won't be coming back. I genuinely hope the employee mentioned gets help if this is a regular thing, because nobody should be working service in that condition.
