We went away with a golden dragonfruit, (which piqued the interest of my five year old), a package of bourbon creams, (which piqued the interest of my Scottish husband who cant't find them in the places we usually shop), a bulk package of lentils, some indian packaged snacks, and some jacob's cream crackers. We left without any british chocolate much to my husband's dismay, but next time we shop there I will arrive with a list prepared for items needed for asian dishes I'd like to make, and we can grab a chocolate bar then!

I had a pretty good experience from service to the quality of the menu items that I got. There were 4 staff members that were there taking and making orders. Even though I came in at a busy time, I didn't have very long to wait until I got my drink order. I grabbed a strawberry magic stick, an ube bun and a pineapple bun along with a mango orange tea. The strawberry magic stick and the pineapple bun were delectable and the ube bun was perfect. Ube isn't very sweet, and I'm glad that this cafe stayed true to the ube flavor instead of adding a lot of sugar or altering the actual taste! The mango orange tea perfectly pared with the pastries! They have bottled drinks and cakes as well, but I didn't get to try them! They have a handful of tables and chairs inside, and they had quite a bit of people in there. It seems like they are a fave spot for locals. Some customers were just hanging out and some had laptops out, so they might be a good spot to do some work, too. They also have some merch on shelves (plushies and cups) if you're interested in that kind of thing. Definitely recommend if you're craving some treats!

I particularly like the Orange Pineapple and Orange Mango, but you can't go wrong with any of them. At just around $7 the price point is in line with what you would expect for a coffee replacement. The pastries are where Ben Wong shines. Showcased in the middle of the cafe, the ability to self select pastries often leaves me going home with more than I expect. The Pineapple Bun is fluffy with a mild sweetness, the Chicken Curry Bun is savory with a satisfying crunchy exterior, and the Taro Buns have a rich taro flavor. At $3-$5 per pastry you can't go wrong with any of them.

I was disappointed in the lack of selection of pastries availability. The barista was nice and got our drink order fast and ready. We ordered the passion tea and brown sugar milk tea. The brown sugar milk tea did not taste like brown sugar or anything. It lacked flavor and I was looking forward to a good bubble tea. I'm sorry but I bet there is other bubble location that has better bubble tea or I came on an off day for the milk teas.

They have plenty of seating inside. This is one of the few places in the area that has a green grape drink. My favorite is the Iced Muscat Grape Green Tea, which comes with crystal pearls and a milk foam. The drink is a slushee and the foam tastes like cheese foam. I typically sip it first to finish the foam and then use the straw to get to the pearls. They also have fried chicken, ramen, bento boxes, and egg waffles. The fried chicken reminded me of Korean fried chicken and was flavorful and crispy. The egg waffle was crispy on the outside, chewy inside, and they have a lot of flavors.

The drink prices are reasonable and a nice value. However, it seems the menus on the table could have outdated pricing because my friend ordered a cocktail that was listed for $7 and was charged $10. The atmosphere felt a bit off during the midday visit. The music was extremely soft, and normal conversation seemed to echo throughout the space, which made it feel like we needed to keep our voices unusually low. Service was also slower than expected, from placing our order to receiving drinks and food. It seemed possible they were operating with a limited staff or a skeleton crew during lunch hours. Overall, I'm not dying to dine in again but would consider takeout.
