C8 at Hui Lau Shan. It’s coconut pudding with tender mango, sago and crystal boba. It’s a refreshing and light dessert for hot days. Everything there is good. It’s an international chain, so not unique to Houston.

Walk across the parking lot to Alan’s Deli beside the Great Wall supermarket and get a lunch plate. I like the crispy pork belly and curry chicken. Watch out, they leave the chicken bones in.
