Are my friends in the states reading this? Yes, you read that right, Tin Kuan yim Soft served Ice cream. It was every single drip of ice cream you dream of! it was so tea-ish! It was more than amazing!! I was completely obsess with this afterwards. I wanted it everyday! i wish they had this in the states!!!

Nice, Ten Ren Tea Station basically for Hong Kong, dubbed as 天仁喫茶趣. Based on multiple visits in the…read morelast 2+ years (plus having had Ten Ren drinks in Taipei) I have to say this location comes pretty darn close. Comparing Ten Ren tea drinks in Northern (and Southern) California to this Hong Kong location: Prices in Hong Kong are dirt cheap in comparison, nothing really above US$2 on average. Quality is easily x2 to x3 than that in NorCal (and quite possibly SoCal) Thus we pay x2 to x3 as much at 1/2 to 1/3 of the quality, bottom line. Employees are very efficient. A ten minute wait for a drink after paying, is considered a hellish wait even if the line seems long. Even if one of the employees is slacking off, he or she is washing/rinsing cups or blender vats in one hand, and surfing social media/checking texts with the other. Multi-task slacking and getting drinks out the door. And some of you out there have no qualms about 1.5 hour wait for ramen (or a food truck), or 45 minutes for a watered down tapioca milk tea drink. Sigh. This Ten Ren also has a limited selection of imported Taiwanese tea, tea snacks. Octopus (MTR/subway/public transportation) cards accepted for payment (stored value card). You can sip on your drink while browsing books and magazines in Eslite bookstore. Honey green tea, some matcha based drinks, even a classic like Chrysanthemum Pu-Er, are all very good. Honey green tea, even if semi diluted, is still better than the crap in the States....the Wattes....(like Lattes in coffee shops, except Watte is water with a shot of tea). What more can you ask for?

We picked up two tins of Bird's Tongue Jasmine for around HKD 250. I like Oolong but the ones they let us smell had a strong, almost fermented fragrance that we decided to pass on. Is oolong always like that? 3 stars for the decent variety and friendly service in English, but there also isn't too much that distinguishes this place from all the other options in the city.

My friend and I popped in to this location just to peek and see what it was all about. What a nice…read moretea master we met who talked to us about tea and gave us the opportunity to taste different teas and different strengths of teas. Although we did not stay to sit for tea and simply enjoyed sampling the different tea and learning about how to brew tea and when is the best time to drink teas, I am absolutley going to return soon. They sell tea for you to enjoy in the tea room and they also sell tea for you to take home and brew yourself. The tea master indicated that in 2016, they would be offering a class in English to teach people about tea. Currently, the instruction is only in Cantonese.

My hubby and I liked this place. We had just dropped off our luggage at our hotel and went…read moreexploring for some grub. Hubby is quite the picky eater at times and I could tell he was looking for something similar to his favorite Chinese establishment in Philadelphia. We stumbled here and shared a table (customary). I don't remember if the menu was all Chinese but we managed to order some food with the Cantonese we know. (I somehow mostly know how to say all my favorite Chinese foods!) We got our food relatively quick (as you would expect). But they dropped it off and walked away without saying much so we were confused how we were going to eat our bowls of hot! soup noodles. Thankfully the couple next to us were friendly and could tell we were not from HK and guided us to look at a hidden drawer within the table (who knew!) The rest of the sauces were on top of the tables and we are used to the utensils not hidden but it's a nice touch! Gives this place a bit of character. The soup noodles are great here. It might not look like the most sanitary place I will admit, but it's always packed so the food is good!

I remember drinking 三不賣野葛菜水 since I was a kid…read more My parents someday just get jars of takeout for us to drink when they were too busy to make us homemade soup or they thought we needed some herbal remedies. As a child, I hated the taste because my mother never let me put in any salt as seasoning. But last time when I was back in town, I could not resist getting a bowl for myself just for childhood memories! I guess 野葛菜水 must be good stuff since I grow up to be healthy and fully of yelppy energy!

People who knows me will know that I am totally a soup junky; better put, I will gladly consume…read moreanything that is drinkable. I am more than happy to visit this hop every now and them for it serves some of the best herbal tea you can find around. Rather than tea, I would say it is more like a soup brewed with several hebal ingredients. It is said that this drink will cool you down and reduce the heat within you; it suits the people who often stay up late (i.e. me) and is suffering from cold sores and pimples (i.e. also me). Now you know why i like this joint so much. To make it more effective a cure, salt is added into the drink, so to me it is very much like a taste bowl soup; it is so good that I can have two bowls in one go! This store has been serving the life enhancing elixirs since the 70's; not only that, this shop serves one thing and one thing only. A lot of attitude and style I have to say, but actually, why would they have to sell other things, they specialize in one thing, perfecting it, people love it, and have been supporting them for over 40 years; the perfect example of less is more. Life enhancing, health benefiting bowl of drink which tastes wonderful as well; what in life could be as perfect as this?

We sit until it turns dark at 6ish and it's time (and money) well spent! Service was good and ambience is quiet and sophisticated without being too crowded like in other spots in the touristy TST area. One of my all time favourite place to bring visiting friends!
