Iced Milk Tea @ AA Plaza [Closed]

I have been observing that people love to drink iced milk tea during summer. Though I am not an avid fan for milk tea, I want to try and understand why they love it. Once I tried the Iced Milk Tea from AA Plaza , I finally understood. The rich cream and the tea fragrance could be extremely addictive. Price : Cheap! $1.25 for an iced milk tea. A good thirst-quencher. Quality : The milk tea was neither too sweet nor too thick. AA Plaza used evaporated milk instead of the sweetened condensed milk, just the way I would like it. It tasted so much like ‘Teh C’ aka tea with evaporated milk back home. Even though it was addictive, I still prefer green tea to milk tea. Store layout : A simple takeout stall beneath the Flushing LIRR station. The staff were quite friendly. The only problem was the queue. People would jump in the queue if you were not aggressive enough. Otherwise, you could have your orders taken within minutes.  Where : AA Plaza, 40-40 Main Str...

Rice Noodle Roll @ AA Plaza [Closed]

I dropped by Flushing Library today to borrow some books. Along the way, I thought of trying the rice noodle roll at AA Plaza . As I was not aggressive enough, other customers cut into my queue. Sigh~ Price : Value for money. $1.25 for a tub of rice noodle roll. It could be eaten as a meal.   Quality : The serving was generous. I had it for lunch. The texture of the rice noodle roll was a little hard but it tasted delicious together with the sweet sauce. Something you should not fussed about when the food was cheap and good.  Store layout : A simple takeout stall beneath Flushing LIRR station. The staff were quite friendly.

Singapore-style vermicelli with Fried Drumsticks @ AA Plaza [Closed]

Today I decided to try the Singapore-style Vermicelli for a change. The vermicelli with carrot and cabbage strips is cooked with soy sauce. In Singapore, it is known as ‘economical noodle’ where customers can order either vermicelli or flat noodles as the main and side dishes such as drumsticks, fish balls, spring roll. It is not uncommon to see it everywhere in Singapore and is mainly consumed during breakfast time. The turnover is high and customers come and go. I was not aggressive enough and someone else who came later than me was served first. Well, I finally got my Singapore-style vermicelli with Fried Drumsticks and head home to prepare for dinner. Price : Very affordable. Total price = $2.50 enough for two persons. Quality : I cannot say much about the vermicelli. Its taste was about average. However, the drumstick is delicious. The huge portion of the vermicelli is most suitable to be shared with another person. As for the drumsticks, you better buy more! Stor...
