Needless to say, she was a little disappointed. I told her, "Let's just walk around Chinatown. I'm sure we'll find something!" And find something we did! We were heading to the Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory when we noticed By Me Boba Tea right next door. We decided to pop in and see if they had the popping Boba drinks she was looking for--and they did! She was thrilled. The shop was really cute, with adorable lanterns that immediately caught our attention and drew us inside. The store was clean, there was plenty of seating, and they had lots of different drink and topping options. My daughter got exactly what she wanted, and she loved it! In fact, she liked it so much that she wanted to go back again during our trip. Unfortunately, it wasn't close to the other places we were visiting, so we never made it back. If you're visiting Chinatown, I definitely recommend stopping at By Me Boba Tea, especially if you're planning to visit the Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory. It's literally right next door, so grab a refreshing drink before you get in line for the fortune cookies. It turned our little boba hunt into one of the highlights of our Chinatown visit!

The Original Taiwan Milk Tea with boba was delicious and very well balanced. Some places make it too sweet or too milky, but they come correct with their recipe.

The Guava Green Grape- this is a great option for those looking for dairy free drinks. The guava and grape flavor are fresh tasting and there are grape chunks at the bottom. Jasmine Strawberries & Cream- yummy strawberry cheese top! The jasmine flavor and strawberry paired well. King Jasmine Honeydew - incredible honeydew flavor!

Parking is very difficult, especially on Friday but worth the trouble of parking further and walk over. Every time I tell myself that I will get something else. I end up getting my love - Coconut Mango Boom. Especially when Mango is in season right now! It's such a refreshing, light and delicious drink. I'm mildly lactose and my stomach is totally happy and in agreement with coconut milk. I also had a sip of my friend's matcha latte. It was very smooth and not water down matcha like other places.

HK Metro Dessert Cafe is centrally located in the heart of Chinatown. The restaurant is divided…read moreinto two sections by a wall. We mistakenly walked in at a street signage called "Happy Panda". It's a dual layout concept. One side is a self-service dessert and drink, where orders are placed at a kiosk and picked up through an open service window. The other side is a full-service dine-in with menu of classic Hong Kong cha chaan teng favorites, including noodles, congee, dim sum, and other Cantonese comfort foods. We order two dim sum dishes - sweet custard buns and sticky rice and both missed the mark. We also ordered the Han Nan chicken (but it's more prepared like a cold dish) but the ginger scallion sauce that accompanies this dish was really good!! We did enjoy the rice rolled a lot and the congee was wonderful. My favorite was the black sesame dessert -- fragrantly roasted and not overly sweet. The consistency of the sesame paste was perfect. The service is excellent where the owner and his staff are nice and accommodating. I would come back but world skip their refresher drinks (too sweet).

Iced Hong Kong Milk Tea (Ceylon tea with condensed milk). The person making my order reached into a chest freezer and pulled out a brownish icy prism and put it into my cup. I was curious what was going on and it turns out that ice was frozen milk tea! Love the attention to detail as too much regular ice dilutes the drink. The milk tea was very tasty, not too sweet, and had plenty of tea flavor in part due to the frozen tea. It was also reasonably priced, coming in at under $5.

It is a small shop with a handful of dine-in seating. All were filled at the 8:00 hour. There is one person working the entire place so service is subpar. There are plenty of menu options that extend beyond drinks and two other sweet treats. We ordered a hot roasted oolong milk tea, avocado slush and a dirty oreo. Prices are average and so are flavors. So if in a bind because of the late hour, this might be a place to try. Otherwise I would opt for checking out other nearby places during other times of the day.
