"This Chinatown location of a beloved Taiwanese bubble tea chain is all about high-quality tea, with free tea tastings and imposing “teaspresso” machines that brew to order in seconds. You’ll get a text when your drinks are ready—they come wrapped in rustic twine carriers, which are especially charming juxtaposed with all this tech. We like the flowery, tannic black-tea flavor of the standard Bubble Milk Tea, and the perfectly al dente boba. " - molly fitzpatrick, carina finn koeppicus
