Or, as they call it here, "Bubble Tea". A block away from the B/D station in Chinatown, I noticed a Pearl Milk Tea place I never saw before. As I've written before, getting decent Pearl Milk Tea, even in Chinatown & Flushing, is not easy. A few months ago Ben took me to a decent place, Sago Tea, in Flushing, but although it was good, with later visits I found the place inconsistent.
At any rate, this place in Chinatown was called "Quickly".
I was immediately impressed by the look of the tea. I like it when they cover it with plastic that you have to punch through with a straw. It's a great design, and I think it correlates fairly well with the better places. When I tried the tea, my thoughts were confirmed, and the tea was just as good as I had hoped. Not the best I've had, but maybe the best for New York so far.
I'll definitely come back here on my frequent visits to nearby Dumpling House.
Quickly turns out to be the "World Largest Bubble Tea Franchise". - http://www.quicklyusa.com
