I tried a variety of teas, macho, and juices, and all are really delicious. I definitely want to go again soon, but my one complaint, which is why I gave them a four-star review, is that the place should be cleaner than it is presently.

Tasty souffle pancakes and delicious drinks
We got it during their happy hour, so we got a few dollars off
Also, keep in mind that the souffle takes a while to get it served. Since it is fleshy made, it takes a bit. The wait didn't disappoint, though,
They do have a really good variety of drinks with boba, so I definitely recommend it specially during a hot summer

I got the mango soufflé pancake and my friend got the crème brûlée pancake. Very light and fluffy. I recommend trying the white peach lemon jasmine bliss.
