●Fantasia Coffee & Tea

●Joy Luck Palace
#10911, (408) 255-6988. L-D daily.
Delicious dim sum lunches combine with a Cantonese menu for great options at Joy Luck Palace. Though “palace” is a bit of a stretch, it is a popular spot.
A separate dining room is known for serving excellent Cantonese-style won ton noodles--a skinny crunchy Hong Kong-style noodle. Excellent Cantonese-style congee porridge is also available.

Come to Ten Ren Tea for boba milk tea with pearls--a mix of green tea and flavored milk with black tapioca balls on the bottom. I enjoyed the Mango Milk Green Tea. Order it to your specs—mine are coconut milk boba with less tea and more milk. The tapioca is satisfyingly chewy. Seating is limited to two small tree-trunk tables.
