Really yummy! I couldn't taste the flavor of the crème brûlée so much but overall this was delicious. The owner of the whole Plaza was kind of rude though and didn't let us sit there to finish drinking our Boba because he said we had to order actual food to stay in the area. The sitting itself isn't even that nice so that was a bit annoying lol read more

Zhen Pin Cafe - Crème Baked Brule Milk Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Rise and grind on a early Monday morning for a doctor appointment in Chinatown where very few businesses are open. Zhen Pin Cafe is located inside Mott Street Eatery (former tenant Grand Harmony), now a food court with abundant seating which is open at an early hour. I sorrowfully miss Grand Harmony, a dim sum restaurant. With a family member we ordered coffee $1.75 and herbal ice tea $3.50 respectively were very mediocre, but I was very dehydrated from NYC's plaguing humidity and it got the job done. The herbal ice tea was very bland and average. Customer service is average. read more

The weather was in the high 60s today. I stopped by Zhen Pin Cafe with my mom for dessert. Two weeks ago, I tried their yummy Egg Tart. I decided to order the Original Yogurt Ice Cream ($6.50). I was disappointed because there was no yogurt flavor. The ice cream tasted like durian flavor. I am not a fan of durian. Note: There were two restrooms toward the back of the food court. The additional restrooms were downstairs. read more

Yummy drinks, my favorite was the brûlée latte. There was only one woman making all the drinks but they came out pretty fast. Kiosk didn't work because of wifi issues so we ordered at the counter. This is inside the food court so it felt like the typical casual food court atmosphere. read more

I got the passionfruit jadedew and my friend got the coffee latte and they were both pretty good. The only reason this place isn't five stars is that I wish mine had a little more sweetness or passionfruit to it bc it was quite clear and not as "refreshing" but the latte one I was actually impressed by. We were able to order in the machine and it took them maybe 5mins to make our drinks. Then we sat at a table inside the court and while the court is a little loud, we really did enjoy our tea. read more

This Baked Brulee milk latte taste so great that is beyond the words... Adding crystal Boba is a must. The milk and the cream cheese on top is very rich and creamy. Along with the deep unique black sugar taste and the chewy boba (pretty nice chewy), the combination is just unbeatable. I've been a fan of black sugar Boba but this one just beats alot of big chains. The portion is huge as well. read more

The taro smoothie was soooo yummy! Got boba in it which also made it extra good. Pretty cheap for a huge smoothie. Only $7. We also ordered something called chocolate (cold) just to see what it was. It was basically chocolate water. Not even chocolate milk... but water. Not great. The taro smoothie really was great though! Located in a food court type of area with plenty of seating. read more

Pretty average for milk tea and whatnot. Service is reasonable and ambiance is cheap Chinese-American-food-court to a T, which honestly works just fine. Pricing is pretty good, so so long as you have modest expectations, this place is not a bad stop. read more

This is Hong Kong Vintage latte. It is very authentic, exactly like the taste in Hong Kong. I have been longing for this kind of taste for quite awhile. They also have variety of drinks. I'll definitely come back to try next time. read more

A gem in Chinatown. Highly recommended! The boba tea is absolutely sensational. Very friendly staff.

This may be my favorite bubble tea spot in chinatown yet. It's located in the food court on Mott St. They sell a variety of milk tea and other desserts and ice cream. I ordered a classic Hong Kong milk tea with bubble and it tasted great! They use evaporated milk so the tea and milk flavor was very concentrated, just the way I like it. The boba texture is good as well. The prices are typical for the area. I didn't get to try their desserts but I would be interested to revisit and try them out next time. read more

A small bakery and café in Chinatown's Mott Street Eatery. Upon entering, it's the first stall to the right; quite hard to miss. There's not really much to say-- the service is fast and they have a wide selection of breads, pastries, teas, and beverages. $3.50 for an unsweetened herbal tea is not bad, especially considering the lack of options in the food court. read more

$2.5 for Water and $3.5 for small herb tea seem to be higher than regular. In the food court for drinks, I don't have lots of choices, so I have to pick something. read more

This is a fine bubble tea spot in a food hall on Mott Street; the service was pretty quick, but I thought they only had limited flavor options (very few fruit tea options listed) and it didn't blow me away and have me craving for more. Given the plethora of options in the nearby blocks, it isn't something I would necessarily come back for (~$8 btw). read more

Small and unassuming business in a food hall in Manhattan Chinatown. Had a small dessert pudding here and it was good. There's really not much to say about this place- service is good, the taste was good, and it's just a nice place to sit down and rest your feet from walking around Chinatown. read more

While running an errand in NYC's Chinatown, my partner, cousin and I stumbled into the Mott Street Eatery located at 98 Mott Street just open since last November. Upon arrival, the space offers several tables for patrons to enjoy their meal with a small stage in the back. There are 10 food stalls which seven are currently occupied offering dumplings, congee, and siu mei like roast duck and char siu. Some of the meats are available over rice with two, three, or four choices ($7.50, $9, $9.50). We stopped at Zhen Pin Cafe selling bubble teas, ice cream, and baked goods, but for now, only coffee and a kind of sweet drinkable yogurt in plastic cups are sold. We got a lemon cake, apple turnover, sponge cake, regular coffee and baked brûlée milk latte bubble tea featuring a creamy milk tea custard under a layer of crunchy caramelized sugar and topped with clear tapioca pearls in brown sugar syrup. I actually witnessed how the staff was making it and used a small torch to caramelized the sugar. It was deliciously sweet and refreshing especially with the clear pearls. It's the perfect destination for a casual, quick bite to eat where all is authentic, fairly priced, fresh, & delicious. Stop by and give this place a try. read more

Great tiny bakery located in Mott Street Eatery! It's one of the few bakeries that are open on the later side, which is a huge plus. They have lots of yummy baked goods, and some unique drinks and desserts that most other bakeries don't have. They had small tubs of matcha ice cream for sale! I didn't get to try it, but I'll be stopping by this bakery again soon to try it. read more
