Mochi donuts are everywhere now, but Alimama was one of the first spots where you could get these crispy, chewy treats in NYC—and we think they’re still the best. The donuts are extremely consistent, and the flavors tend to be modern takes on Asian-inspired flavors. While you're here, get the boba-filled cream puff: It's a stunt food, sure, but one that actually tastes good. The same goes for their very pretty layered drinks.
