    The menu is pretty extensive with many flavor/ingredient combinations. Pandan Jelly, Basil Seeds, Coconut milk, Taro, Tapioca, Longan. They have it all & you can create whatever combinations you want. Read more

    This Vietnamese dessert spot hits all the right notes with their sweets and ché, which are shave ice parfaits layered with things like lychee, pandan jelly, jackfruit, and even avocado. Read more

    In-love with #6. I don't get jackfruit often, but I ask for extra when I'm here. I'm glad the drinks aren't too sweet, either, since my dentist's office is right across from it. Guilt free :]

    Taro smoothie is really good and not overly sweet like the milk tea you get at Quickly.

    Currently the only Bambu location that uses Square. Dumb speak: credit cards are accepted.

    Long wait to order, but quick to get your drink. Lots of condensation due and poor ventilation, but good drinks/filling. Take cash and credit card.
