Best milk tea I found in New York after trying a new bubble tea shop on each day of a recent visit (comparing classic black milk tea with tapioca pearls).
The girl commenting on the employees with the "deer in eyes headlight look" is on point...Lol. Not bad. Tapioca was a little too chewy. Great BOGO deals and lots of different, cheap options under $5!
With a good array of bubble teas and other drinks, Vivi is a default post-dinner stop while in Chinatown. Bring a friend for the buy one, get one specials.
Although they're known primarily for their bubble tea, make sure you don't miss their delicious savory food items like Popcorn Chicken and Yam Fries. Read more
$4 for a ginormous bowl of shaved ice with 3 toppings of your choice. Condensed milk, red beans, and pudding or grass jelly are the best. I'm replacing my meals with this crack.
Buy 1, get 1 free for $4. Quick bubble tea fix but definitely not the tastiest. Too milky and not very flavorful. Cheap? Yes. Tasty? No. Try again? No.
