Great ice cream! I brought my parents here this time…read more Matcha Level 5 Gelato: As always, the matcha flavor is pure and rich, and the ice cream is thick and creamy. I loved it, but my parents thought it was too bitter. Level 3 or around might be more suitable for most tastes.

While waiting for her to arrive, I politely asked if I could have a cup of water. I was given a firm "no." We ended up leaving and walking a short distance to Levain instead. They happily gave me water, and I enjoyed one of the best ice cream sandwiches I've ever had--creamy vanilla ice cream between two warm chocolate chip cookies. I came here excited to try the matcha, but the lack of basic hospitality was disappointing enough that we chose to spend our money elsewhere. ------ Update: After this experience, I left a polite comment on Mizu's Instagram describing what happened. Rather than responding or asking how they could make it right, my comment was deleted and my account was blocked. That response reinforced my impression that customer concerns are dismissed rather than addressed.

I'm so sad I couldn't visit this spot twice on my vacation because it was just that good the mochi…read morewas so chewy and soft that one of us thought it was cheese at first! I ordered the mochi ice cream on the right - it's Strawberry Fruit, Strawberry Ice Cream, and Butter Biscuit topping. I loved the butter biscuit topping, it was like having crumbled ice cream wafer cone on top. The bakery itself was small and a line of 5-7 people on Wednesday evening took about 15 min wait to receive my order (most people ordered the same mochi ice cream). I only saw stairs going down to the entrance, so it doesn't seem handicap accessible. There's one small counter to stand and eat at.

I really like the pastries here, and I've visited several times since they opened. However, in my…read morerecent visit I was disappointed with their service. I ordered an iced tea, and one of the workers who made it was also preparing mango mochi while wearing gloves. She didn't take the gloves off to make my drink. The gloves had coconut flakes on them, and those flakes ended up all over my cup. The lid was also very greasy. When I received my drink, I noticed it was still warm, so I asked for extra ice. Another worker took my cup to add more ice. While doing so, I noticed she touched the part of the straw so I asked for a new straw, and she seemed hesitant to give me one. I had to ask again and when she finally handed it to me, she gave me a mean look, which made the experience feel uncomfortable Overall, I was disappointed by the lack of attention to cleanliness. I don't think I'll order drinks from there again

Still dreaming of these egg tarts. I came here with some friends and we tried 5 different egg tarts…read moreand they were all phenomenal. We had the taro mochi, matcha, dubai chocolate, mango pomelo and caramel cheesecake. Some had the flakey crust and some had the cookie crust. I preferred the flakey buttery crusts.. they had a nice delicate crisp bite. My favorite was the dubai chocolate. Each were very good and depends on what flavors you like. We came late afternoon and they didn't have them all out for display, and we noticed they prepared ours fresh to order. I am not sure if this is always the case, but it made for really fresh creamy and crispy tarts. They also have matcha and hojicha. I got the hojicha latte which I enjoyed.

I've never heard of Ever Spring Green Tea before, so I opted for that instead of my usual jasmine or oolong milk tea. First impression, tastes interestingly like a watered down coffee creamer? But you can also taste the essence of tea. It's smooth in flavor and subtle in sweetness. I like the flavor of the golden boba (honey boba), although the texture of this particular batch is semi hard in its core. If it was cooked better, I definitely would love it more. I would come back to try more drinks!

We finally got the chance to check out Kuya Jay's Ube Cafe in Somerville, Massachusetts, and it…read moreabsolutely did not disappoint! I can honestly say it's one of the best little cafes we've ever visited. I had never tried ube before, and for anyone unfamiliar like I was, it's a purple yam. I ordered the Banana brulee Cold Foam, and it was incredibly refreshing and packed with the perfect blend of flavors, topped with fresh bananas. It was absolutely delicious! The bread completely surprised me. It was evenly baked, incredibly moist, and somehow crafted to pure perfection. The ice cream was a treat as well, but honestly, everything we tried was phenomenal. We can't wait until our next trip to Massachusetts just so we can enjoy a few more bites. I also loved the purple theme throughout the cafe, although maybe I'm a little biased since purple happens to be my birthstone! One of my favorite touches was the owners' book, where you can see pictures and learn more about their story. It really adds a personal touch to the experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and we would definitely recommend this place for a quick snack, dessert, or beverage. There is some temporary street parking available as well. If you're in the area, Kuya Jay's Ube Cafe is absolutely worth a visit!

The wait wasn't too bad and the menu had a good selection of ube flavored drinks and treats. The spot is located in this public space with nice lighting and some seating. The area also does cooking classes and has some areas to study. I actually got two drinks to try both and they were tasty - not amazing, but not bad given the price. Overall, I didn't mind the experience, but I have seen some troubling things online regarding permits that deter me from coming back unfortunately. Drinks tasted fine though!
