    brooklyn blackout
    Cindy L.

    Love that this was open so late for those of us waiting for our trains home after a night out. Also got a free glazed donut (not pictured) with my chocolate donut, I'm assuming because they were about to close? But very nice of them! There were not a lot of options left since it was so late but the menu mentioned alot of options for those with dietary restrictions which is nice! I got the Brooklyn blackout donut which was good, I'm sure people who love dark chocolate would like it a bit more since it had that dark bitterness to it but still a good donut for an almost midnight snack!

    ***MUST BE EATEN FRESH*** I remember when Doughnut Plant first came out and the PBJ one was all the rage over ten years ago. I think it's still the best one, but the vanilla with jelly is a close second. The doughnuts are very good. Some more than others, but that's expected and a matter of preference.

    Small Counter in the dining area at Grand Central Station. Went on a weekend morning (Saturday, and because I loved the donuts so, Sunday too) and there wasn't much of a line. Great coffee. The crème brulee donut (individually bruleed!) was the best I've ever had. The sourdough donuts are unique and delicious. Sad to leave the City.

    Box of four to sample. Rankings: 1. Pumpkin Pie (surprising placing actually, not crazy about pumpkin) 2. Carrot Cake 3. Tres Leches 4. Oatmeal All good donuts, based on the name, these are DOUGHnuts. All cake. All very sweet. Couldn't eat the full four at once, but fun to try. If going for a full, just recommend getting one.

    Tres leches donut

    The tres leches donut here is to die for. TO DIE FOR. It is so good. It's a cake donut that isn't dry at all but is cakey and fluffy with a slightly crunchy exterior. Tastes super milky with a tad sweetness probably similar to condensed milk. I LOVE IT! Just a stand in the food hall in GCT for this location.

    There wasn't a long line on a Friday morning. I got the pistachio donut. It doesn't like pistachio, but it was a glazed donut with bits of pistachios. I also liked that it was flakey and wasn't too sweet from my perspective. It wasn't that greasy either!

    Whenever I'm in NYC and passing through Grand Central, I make sure to stop by Doughnut Plant in the food concourse. Their doughnuts and coffee and consistently delicious. So many different flavors, and great seasonal offerings as well. There are also several vegan options. Service has always been fast and friendly no matter how busy they are. Definitely check them out for a sweet treat!

    Having multiple Doughnut Plant locations is like a dream come true. These are some of my favorite doughnuts in NYC. Super-friendly staff. Great cold brew. Vegan options available. To get to the food hall at Grand Central, if you're mobility-challenged, there is an elevator located at the back of the ground level. It was a little tricky to locate.

    The donut spot is located on the main dining concourse of Grand Central. There were so many to choose from and I like how they cycle out different flavors. The donuts all looked great but were very standard donuts. We tried two of the flavors and were a bit let down.

    We got four donuts. The pecan, PB&J, pumpkin pie, and blueberry. 3/4 were phenomenal! The blueberry was like a very heavy more cake than donut type texture and flavor was really light. While blueberry let us down the other three flavors were fantastic! They taste exactly like their name and were light and flavorful and worth a second trip. We were greeted quickly and both guys at the counter were really kind and helped us pick a couple flavors.

    Doughnut plant will forever be one of my favorite doughnut shops! I'm still sad about the location on 23rd that closed down years ago. The doughnut flavors are bomb. My favorites are the tres leche and the black and white. The doughnuts are also not too sweet and not too doughy or dry. This time I placed an order for pick up and my order was ready the staff was friendly.

    Doughnut Plant is a doughnut counter in Grand Central Terminal's lower level dining concourse. They offer several doughnut options, including some vegan options, so it's a good option for a morning bite (not all of the stands and counters in the terminal are open for breakfast). I had a pistachio cake doughnut, which I enjoyed! Not a bad option for breakfast if you're in Grand Central.

    The draw!

    I came here specifically for the donut that matches the ceiling Zodiac Ceiling - and loved it! For those of you less familiar: Doughnut Plant has created a donut w/ icing that has been color-matched to near perfection to the Zodiac Ceiling. I've never had a food that was made to match the architectural style of the building it's housed in before! Though this cool donut definitely derailed a deeper assessment on their other offerings, I tried a few other donut flavors too. I can vouch for the carrot cake, wild blueberry, raspberry cake and red velvet donuts.

And I'm from Maryland (Murlyn), I don't mean a sno-ball. I mean that flaky, instantly melting ice carved mechanically using some kind of drill motor with all the torque, off a block the size of a dorm fridge and then topped with syrupy fruits and condensed milk and such. And this wasn't that either, but I now need to find a place for this near me. It was more like regular ice cream at a soft-serve consistency, topped with all the things-- that part was as expected. Hubs & I were thinking of getting two different things but we both wanted the mango madness, and then the checkout person said it was the size of a quart container. So just one then. I wish we got to see it being made up but it was full in there (at 10p, after the theaters let out), and they seated us and gave us a buzzer that went off almost immediately. We almost didn't finish it even between the two of us. Absolutely delicious, just overwhelmingly enormous. It could be a low-grade food challenge to complete it! And with all that fruit, actual mango chunks and a banana, it's practically a healthy snack. Gotta find one of these closer to home!

I was at this quaint tea shop east of Koreatown earlier in the evening before going to a meal at the excellent new Thai place, Wanglang. The staff was very friendly, and they specialize in matcha, along with having hojicha, genmaicha, black tea, and sencha. Along with more traditional drinks, they also have fruit options as well as black sugar jelly (I presume kuromitsu) and a Japanese citrus that's not seen much here, hyuganatsu. Along with the citrus, this place is rather unique as they had three different matcha options in terms of variety. As I tend to prefer teas pure and without add-ons, I ordered the Matcha Americano, which is simply matcha and water. I went with the 12-oz version for $6 + tax and ordered the Hajime, though I would likely get the Fuku No Midori next time based on descriptions online. The matcha was solid and had a mild sweetness and a light earthiness. However, it lacked some of the mouth coating found in very high-quality drinks from Sorate or Setsugekka, while being similar in price. Still, that is comparing to some of the best, and this was still very tasty and a lot better than 90% of the places in the city, being more comparable to Kettl. I wouldn't mind going back and ordering the other matcha varietal to see whether that is a better comparison. Outside of this, I enjoyed my drink, and the staff was friendly. I hope they do well.

    Mika's Direction is a small matcha-focused shop tucked slightly off the main flow of Koreatown,…read moreeasy to miss if you are not actively looking for it. The space is extremely compact, functioning more like a takeout counter than a café, with only minimal room inside. The main focus here is matcha, with a distinctive approach that lets you choose between three blends: Hinata, which leans creamy and nutty; Hajime, which is more smoky and earthy; and a more traditional-style matcha profile. Drinks like the mango matcha show how they play with these bases, though fruit purées can sometimes overshadow the matcha depending on the combination. They also offer matcha powder for home use and occasional fresh pastries that add a warm, baked aroma to the space. Service is one of the strongest parts of the experience. The staff is consistently warm, attentive, and willing to explain the differences between blends in detail. The atmosphere is cozy but extremely tight, built for short visits rather than lingering. It is not a workspace or hangout café, but more of a quick stop that stands out because of its hospitality and focus on craft. Even in a busy area, it leaves a memorable impression through its matcha quality and genuinely personable service.

And I commonly see the upstairs for private events like baby showers, bridal showers, or birthday parties on social media. After dinner with my friends, I was looking for dessert and I was glad to see this location closes relatively late on a weekday night at 11 pm. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a waiter who led us to one of the purple velvet chair booths that was perfect for two people and another waiter brought us a pitcher of water almost immediately. The menu is on a QR code already on the table and we were given ample of time to decide. My friend and I both already knew what we wanted to order. I got the purple Yam Souffle which takes 25 minutes to make and my friend got the fried squid tails. We also got a signature Rose Green Milk Tea to share. The waitress who took our order has great memory and recalled all of our items without writing it down. She also reminded me that I could adjust the ice and sugar levels of my drink which I had completely forgotten and would have got annoyed if my drink came out 100% sweetness. Another thing is that my drink order frequently comes out wrong at other locations so I was glad she got it right! Green tea instead of black tea and with milk instead of without milk. The purple Yam Souffle is just like the other locations. Hot, soft cakey texture balanced with an ice cold red bean Ice-Cream. So delicious! The squid tails on the other hand was not what we expected. It came out burnt and hard. The outer batter was not crispy either. We informed one of the waiters and he brought it back to inform the kitchen staff. We received a new batch that was not as burnt and had more flavoring this time around. However, the squid was still hard and not like the ones we get from other locations with smaller crispier pieces. Overall, it was still a good experience and I love the decorations at this location! This might be my second favorite location after the Flushing one. Would love to come back for brunch or hi-tea. Or regular food options when I have not already eaten dinner. My usual go-tos are the twister fries, Santa Fe chicken rolls, fried salted crispy chicken, and the trio dessert combo. However, this location has a lot more variety!

We ordered potted rose milk tea to share, Dubai affogato and Brown Sugar Boba Mille Crêpes Cake. We came on a Friday around 4pm. Originally I wanted to try the strawberry matchamisu, however, was told that it sold out. What a bummer. The rose milk tea came with a themed pot and cups which is really cute. The rose fragrant smelled so good and the milk tea also tasted good and has a hint of rose taste. The cake was good, the boba was well cooked, chewy and flavorful! This time there was an unpleasant experience. At first when the Dubai affogato was served, we did not realize that the amount of the coffee was little until we saw another customer's dish that the volume of their coffee looked significantly more than ours. My friend brought it to the waitress attention but the waitress brushed it off and did not acknowledge our concern. When we finished and were about to leave, the same waitress came over and showed us that the container of the coffee was different and hence the volume of the coffee looked different. At this point, we did not care for it anymore. We would have been fine if the staff acknowledged our concern. We thought that maybe using standardized containers for the coffee would avoid this problem. Other than that, the food and drinks were good.

Paris Baguette is a neighborhood bakery café, bringing expertly crafted baked and brewed goods to the community.

It's super easy to join via their app, and you earn 1 point per $1 spent toward free pastries, drinks, cake slices, and more and i even got a free pastry just for signing up. I ordered a chai latte and my free strawberry croissant pastry filled with soft custard cream and strawberries, dusted with powdered sugar. The strawberry croissant had fresh strawberries and cream and it was the perfect breakfast after a run in Central Park.

I ordered the Blueberry chiffon cake slice filled with soft cream, topped with blueberry yogurt soft cream and blueberries and the strawberry soft cream cake slice, a vanilla cake filled with soft cream and fresh strawberries, topped with more berries. Service was friendly and the line moved quickly. Prices are typical for midtown NYC, but all the reward app perks make it more reasonable. I will definitely be back to earn more rewards and try more of their pastries.
