Our craft
The slow way is the only way.
We pride ourselves on real ingredients — loose-leaf tea and brown sugar imported from Taiwan, fresh fruit, and the finest tapioca pearls. The teas are freshly brewed and the bubbles slowly cooked by our own staff every day.
Our Taiwanese grilled chicken steak — exclusively distributed in North America — is coated in a special grilling sauce made from several Chinese herbs for a flavor that's truly ours.
