Every time I entered Today’s Plaza, my attention always went straight to the crowd magnets near the entrance: on the right, the ever-popular Vietnamese coffee joints Bake & Che and Da Vien Coffee, and on the left, the traditional dessert spot Thạch Chè Hiển Khánh Dessert House, which always have people spilling out the front.
But this time, just about 50 meters straight in, I spotted a new-looking Vietnamese drink shop that I hadn’t noticed before — Ma’ Juicy!
📍 9651 Bolsa Ave Suite A, Westminster, CA 92683
What really caught my eye? A sign outside advertising A perfect pair looks like Chinese -style sesame flatbreads (shao bing) and youtiao (fried dough sticks) to me which are not something I usually see at a Vietnamese tea shop.
The interior looked super clean and well-kept. After some quick Googling, they have other locations too so I decided to check it out.
But then came the menu struggle because everything on the little table menu was written entirely in Vietnamese, and while there was an electronic screen with English menu, the font was too tiny for us to read (forgot to bring the glasses) so I just went with the classic method: ask directly.
I pointed to the perfect pair I saw on the sign outside and the staff told me they also had freshly made soy milk today, and even poured us a small cup to try. It was pretty decent! But the sesame bread on display didn’t look super appealing, so I passed on that.
Then I asked if they had egg coffee, and they said they actually don’t sell coffee drinks here. I noticed this green drink labeled “#6” on the screen and asked what it was. Again, they poured us a sample — it had that earthy, healthy flavor because it had pennywort (rau má) in it!
Here’s what we ended up ordering:
#6: Rau má đậu xanh sữa dừa – $7.90
Pennywort + mung bean + coconut milk + pandan jelly)
#31: Ceremonial Matcha Latte – $6.50
This was the only thing I could read on the screen so I went for it.
We can customize the sugar and ice levels, which is always a plus.
The staff was really friendly and patient.
The interior design is chic with cozy vibe and good spacing between tables (love that!). Even the bathroom was clean with passcode needed.
Overall, a solid new find! Might come back again to try other drinks.
