Guppy Teahouse - Cerritos

You can tell right off the bat that this is the place where Asian people hang out at night. There are many groups of young Asians roving around the parking lot, waiting for a seat. The restaurant itself looks pretty nice, with large windows, and a very nice patio area which provides much more seating for the restaurant. After finally getting to sit, I got to look at the extensive menu. While it has traditional Chinese food, it has a very nice dessert and boba menu. There are tons of different flavors and all the tea is authentic. None of that powdered milk tea **** like at many other boba joints. I was extremely disappointed though that they ran of almond milk tea, so I decided to try plum milk tea. Let’s just say I wish they had the almond milk tea. Guppy is probably best known for its shaved ice. If you get the large version, it is pretty much a mountain of shaved ice. My friends and I got the version with fruit, and it was loaded with various fruit goodies. Seeing the mountain of shaved ice was truly a sight to behold. It also helped that it tasted pretty good, with all the fruit being ripe and the ice had milk in it too to make it even better. Guppy is a great place to go if you want to get some dessert or hang out with friends at night. There might be a wait though, and the service can be spotty at times since it is busy.
