Handmade brown sugar boba, soft serve, and Taiwanese milk teas
"If you’re walking around Nomad and have a thirst that you know can only be satisfied by Taiwanese brown sugar boba, Xing Fu Tang’s third NYC location should be on your radar." - will hartman
"For tapioca purists, there is Xing Fu Tang. The boba is made by hand, tossed into a warm copper pot constantly caramelizing the brown sugar, and then doled out drink-by-drink right in front of you. You might even want to order a second drink just to watch the procession of beautiful silken, bronze sugar-coated tapioca pearls again. Along with multiple versions of brown sugar milk tea—including one with milk tea-flavored soft serve we have to order every time—Xing Fu Tang also makes seasonal drinks with giant jelly boba, strawberry milk, and sparkling sodas." - Chelsea Thomas
"It is a special treat to see your boba pearls made, cooked, and scooped into the cup right before you. The signature here is a sweet, milky brown sugar drink, which can be torched à la crème brûlée or enjoyed in the form of soft serve ice cream." - Kelly Albert
"At T&T Supermarket in Lansdowne Centre, I wash down mall food-court dumplings with brown sugar pearl milk tea from Xing Fu Tang." - Jay Friedman
"Xing Fu Tang, meaning “Hall of Happiness,” is a Taiwanese bubble tea chain that opened its East Village location in October 2021. Customers can watch the staff make the brown sugar boba from scratch inside the shop. Recommended items include the boba soft serve, strawberry boba milk, and taro boba ube milk." - Anna Huang
