| - TL;DR
Kung Fu is good. Peach Oolong, less sweet, nata jelly.
The story:
Kung Fu Tea is no doubt the dojo that causes all other drink places in Chinatown to quiver in the pants or gi. It is incredibly consistent, a wide variety that can appeal to the white belts and even the black belts. Don't underestimate Kung Fu Tea because its a franchise. They aren't some karate for kids lames where you can buy all your ingredients from your wholesaler upfront, mix it and expect it to taste good. Kung Fu undoubtedly was the first to give you choices, and not just drink choices, but how much ice or how much sweetness type of choices. The free topping with just checking in on Yelp, entitling you to a various toppings (nata jelly da best).
Although I do have to admit my allegiance is to another dojo (which is not hard if figure out if you look at my check ins) in a land far away but there are certain aspects of KFT that keeps me coming back occasionally (besides the cute cashier).
1. They use lactose free milk. I can enjoy milk tea without regret!
2. They're open later (11/12pm usually)
3. Workers are always happy
4. The shaker machine makes a world of difference keeping drinks consistent
5. The area is convenient. Whether I'm eating here, coming from work or school, its a quick detour away.
6. Adding KFT into my palette artillery will help me diversify and better at MMA. Many Mmms and Ahhs.
Do note that it's pretty small in here, and constantly busy, so if you plan on studying or doing any work, but need a distraction free zone, this is not the place.
