If desserts are what you're after, look no further: You'll find a new Meet Fresh location at 362 Eighth St., Unit C in Chinatown.
Meet Fresh, which has locations in California, New York, Washington, Colorado and Nevada, specializes in traditional Taiwanese desserts — the menu features taro balls, herbal jelly and tofu pudding, as well as milk tea, jelly tea and shaved ice.
The new eatery has gotten an enthusiastic response thus far, with a 4.5-star rating out of 24 reviews on Yelp.
Yelper Wei-Chieh M. wrote, "I usually alternate between signature icy grass jelly and peanut tofu pudding as those two are my favorite desserts. The icy grass jelly was soft and I barely needed to chew it. It came with taro balls and it offered the chewy texture. There was shaved ice underneath the grass jelly. Everything was a nice balance."
Swing on by to take a peek for yourself: Meet Fresh is open from 11:30 a.m.–midnight on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday and 11:30 a.m.–1 a.m. on Friday and Saturday.
