Grace Street

matcha beignets 
These matcha beignets are my go-to dessert to have at Grace Street in Koreatown. The beignets are light and fluffy topped with powdered sugar and matcha powder that adds the perfect amount of sweetness to the dessert. The beignets paired with matcha ice cream make it a match made in heaven. I highly recommend trying these out when you're in NYC. 

Il laboratorio del gelato

zabaglione (bottom) & guava (top)
​Endless unique gelato flavors that'll make you want to try it all! This gelato spot has so many unique flavors, but don't think you'll be able to sample it all because they give you a 2 limit flavor sample per person. I love guava so I had to choose that as one of my flavors and the zabaglione is an Italian dessert made with egg yolks, sugar, and sweet wine. I was definitely satisfied with the flavors that I chose. 

Milk bar

It's an experience every time I take that first spoonful of cereal milk flavored soft serve from Milk Bar! You know when you leave your cereal in the milk for a while, finish the cereal, but have that milk leftover at the end? That's exactly what their cereal milk soft serve taste like! The cornflake crunch that sits at the bottom and is sprinkled on the top is the perfect addition that satisfies the taste buds!

Dominique ansel bakery

lychee pistachio cronut (February 2017 edition)
Every month Dominique Ansel launches a different cronut flavor that is only available during that month. The February flavor of lychee pistachio was the perfect combination. The pistachio is always a favorite, but add the lychee and it adds a fruity and bright flavor that balances out the flavor of the pistachio. If you don't want to wait in line make sure to pre-order the cronuts so you can just walk up to the counter and pick them up!

Taiyaki

matcha and black sesame soft serve
Let's be honest, I only went here for the gram. The soft serve flavors were good, but the consistency wasn't the best. There wasn't anything too significant about this that would make me want to go back soon.

Cha cha matcha

matcha doughsant & matcha latte
Who doesn't love matcha?! This cute place devoted to match everything is one of my favorite spots. Their matcha doughsant, which is like the famous cronut, was really yummy and was almost up to par with the original cronut. Their matcha latte of course did not disappoint.

Bibble & sip

earl grey cream puff & match latte
Bibble and Sip's cream puffs are my favorite. Every bite hit the spot with it's perfectly crisp shell, to it's airy interior and flavorful filling! You can't go wrong with their cream puffs.

Doughnut plant

Doughnut Plant has the most unique and delicious doughnut flavors. There are so many good flavors, that you can't just get one. Out of the two doughnuts that I got my favorite one was the passion fruit, which radiated with flavor in every bite.
