Boba Quest: Débutea

This week we tried Débutea in Greenwich Village, our first review in Manhattan. It's right next to Washington Square Park and NYU, so there's convenient subway access at West 4th Street for the A, B, C, D, E, F and M trains. When we walked in, they had a sign…

Boba Quest: AKIHI Bubble Tea

The first month of Boba Quest is in the history books and it has been way more fun than I anticipated. The only thing better than trying new boba is trying new boba and then talking about it with your friends. Really the only part I didn't do a good…

Cannoli Crawl in the City

My friends are often surprised to find out that cannoli are one of my favorite desserts. In their defense, I talk about ice cream far more frequently. Still, I'm always on the lookout for cannoli when eating at Italian resturants and am often left disappointed. I had some fantastic cannoli…

Boba Quest: Möge Tea

I know that last time I promised I'd review something not in Queens on the 7, but the place I had planned to review was out of the specific tea I like, so I'll review it another time. This week we visited Möge Tee (with the umlaut) in Long Island…

Boba Quest: Chun Yang Tea

I've tried Chun Yang Tea once before, but that was nearly two years ago, so this was basically a fresh start. It's right next to the Vernon-Jackson 7 station, at 49-10 Vernon Blvd. I'll try to make this my last boba shop along the 7 in Queens for a while.…

Boba Quest: Bobba Hubba

This week I tried Bobba Hubba for the first time. It's across the street from the Jackson Heights–Roosevelt Avenue station, so it's reachable by the 7, E, F, M, and R trains, plus the Q70 SBS if you're itching for boba right after landing at LGA (or right before you…

Boba Quest: I'Milky

To kick off Boba Quest 2025 🧋, I'm reviewing I'Milky — my go-to in Long Island City (Queens). It's at 22-43 Jackson Ave., right next to Trader Joes and reachable by the 7, E, M and G trains via the Court Square station. It's incredibly small, there's just barely enough…

Review: “Lego Batman”

Rating: 4/5 “Lego Batman” is the movie we deserve, and the one we needed. After years of dark Batman movies, “Lego Batman” is a humorous and sometimes absurd treat for longtime fans and first-timers that will have you leaning forward in your seat, longing for the next scene. It takes…
