Description
Hailing from Hong Kong (where there are 40 locations), Saint's Alp probably doesn't raise an eyebrow among anybody back in the homeland. Here in the States, however (where only three locations exist), this fast-food teahouse is a novelty. Alas, it seems as though mediocre fast food is something we have in common with the rest of the world. The teas here are great (we particularly liked the creamy and full-flavored sesame-milk variety) but the food lacks excitement. But at least there's a view: Sucking down a bowl of vermicelli noodles while taking in the sights of bustling Chinatown is this spot's strong suit.
Hours
Lunch, dinner.

i've only been there once, but it's really nice. it's chi-cafe's mood, with food that's a lot better. the prices are okay... the service is nice.... i would love it, but it's more a younger generatin then bring ur family with. but i love it.
