If bubble tea is what you're after, look no further than this new business. Located at 15 W. 32nd St. in Midtown, the new arrival is called Macao Imperial Tea.
This is the fourth North American location of the bubble tea franchise, which has more than 200 shops worldwide (its other three locations are all in New York City — in Flushing, Brooklyn and Chinatown). Located in the heart of Koreatown, this kiosk-style outpost of the business offers more than 50 tea drinks, including classic varieties, milk teas, fruit teas and more.
Most drinks can be prepared hot or cold, with your desired sweetness, ice level and toppings. Among the possible add-ons are tapioca pearls, pudding and cheese foam — a salty, sweet cream topping. Also available are slushes, sodas and probiotic drinks.
The newcomer has gotten good reviews thus far, with a four-star rating out of 26 reviews on Yelp.
Hansong K., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on Sept. 21, wrote, "Yummy new bubble tea place."
Yelper Phil L. noted, “Their boba is worth the price tag!"
