It was maybe an hour after the mall opened so some places in the food court weren't even open. I seen that Bao Bao had some people waiting around and decided to check it out. They had food as well but looked like it was maybe 2 different places in the same space? Either way on the kiosk you can order food and drinks. I ordered cream cheese wontons as well as a strawberry matcha. The wontons were okay. The strawberry matcha was very disappointing. Basically tasted like milk. As you can see in the pic the strawberry was very much absent. There was one tiny scoop on strawberry puree/jam and I literally tried to mix it in and still ended up sipping it up in one sip (the strawberry). The cups were super cute though. There wasn't much interaction, they made the drink and put it on the counter and that was really it.

A little heat, nice and juicy and definitely shareable! The mango smoothie was a delicious way to break the heat of the jalepeno from the bon mi. And do not miss the baked goods! We went for the chocolate Swiss croissant. It was hands down the best I have ever tasted. Soft and chocolaty--not overly sweet. Everything in the bakery case looked amazing! Staff was friending and efficient despite the line. A definite request stop on my list!

Came to Mall of America and walked past this shop. Decided to stop on in as we saw they were…read moreselling mochi donuts. We got the 6 for $18 variety box: fruity pebbles, churro, taro, circus cookie, strawberry, matcha. My favorite was the fruity pebbles and matcha. Fruity pebble had the perfect light crunch as a topping and the vanilla glaze wasn't overly sweet. With the matcha it wasn't too strong of a flavor which I like and prefer. It had the right amount of matcha flavor. Taro was good but the flavor was quite mild. Wish it was more taro forward. You can never go wrong with churro flavor as it's just sugar and cinnamon. It is a safe pick. Circus cookie did not remind me of the glazed circus cookies at all. Not bad and not overly sweet but definitely not reminiscent of glazed circus cookies. The strawberry was something. There is this top layer of strawberry dust which was overly sweet but it did taste like strawberry. If you're looking for something sweet and tart then this is for you. As for the texture, I love that the mochi donut was very light, airy but still had that chewy mochi texture you're looking for, but not overly chewy. I also love how they're ball shaped donuts so it's very easy to share and try all of them without having to take bites from it. You do have to order from the kiosk so it may take a minute to order especially on a busy day. Though when I went it was quite busy, the workers did a great job getting the drinks and orders out in a timely manner.

It's a self order via kiosk situation. I opted for the signature milk tea with boba (50% sugar & less ice). The kiosk was easy to use and tipping is optional. It was quite busy when I was waiting to order and waiting for my drink. The drink was tasty and I loved that it was in a hard plastic cup with a plastic lid on top of the plastic clear cover...cause anytime I put the straw in other boba drinks, a bit of liquid comes out...I love a drink that's not messy!

We tried the Taro Sago, Matcha Crème Brûlée, and Mango Sticky Rice Smoothie. Everything ended up tasting delicious and I really liked the amount of toppings, although it did feel like a lot by the end. The Taro Sago could've had more ube flavor, and the Matcha Crème Brûlée was decent and the croffle addition was definitely a nice touch! The Mango Sticky Rice Smoothie had good flavor, but the sticky rice was pretty hard and made for a lot of chewing. I also wanted a little more mango. It was definitely on the pricier side for a cafe, but the portions and toppings make it understandable. Since they had just opened, it was pretty crowded, but service was still quick and the ambiance was cute and inviting. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu since there are SO many unique drinks to choose from!

It comes with a scoop of mango ice cream on top, fresh mango chunks, and sticky rice at the bottom. Every sip you get a little bit of everything. The coconut flavor from the rice at the bottom along with mango from the smoothie and ice cream. The only downside is the parking. It's mostly street parking with very limited spots nearby, so finding a place can be a little frustrating. They also take a while to make the drinks since they're usually busy whenever I go, but the wait is definitely worth it! I'd happily come back again for that Mango Sticky Rice drink!

We also got a cookies and cream smoothie with tapioca. My son said it was the best one he's had! He also got a banh mi. He said it was good, but not great. The pork could have been more flavorful and it needed more cilantro. Overall, I recommend this place! Give them a try!

My normal boba drink place charges me almost that much and I just get a regular plastic cup. I love the cup and I love the drink. It was perfectly balanced and I just had a great time here.

Perfect amount of sweetness, could clearly taste the taro flavor, and the mochi was soft and chewy. Much better than a similar version of taro mochi milk tea I had earlier this year in CA. They have a lot of food options in addition to drinks. I didn't order any food but hope to try it in the future. Easy to order on the kiosk or at the counter. Drink was ready a few mins after ordering from the kiosk. Though we walked around the mall, we did notice seating and that it was mostly empty. The only downside is the drink was pricey at ~$9 so I'm not sure I'd be a regular. However, the drink was a solid 5 stars so I would make the occasional visit.

However, it's a real person making the drinks! I've ordered from here twice now, and my experience both times has been a touch slow to receive my order and pretty standard boba options at a slightly higher price than some other spots. I'd recommend going a bit lower on the sweetness level when ordering here! Overall, easy spot to stop for boba in Asia Mall.
