Marathon Donuts & Coffee Shop: Harvey Lin

Tracy Chiu Dept: It s kind of like being told that the best Italian pizza comes from Scarborough, said a jubilant Aaron Liu, sipping milk tea Tuesday at the crowded Marathon Donuts & Coffee Shop on Midland Ave. north of Finch Ave. E. in Scarborough, according to The Star. This is the biggest competition, so we re really happy, said Lin s wife, Tracy Chiu, 28, who was busy fielding congratulations and pouring tea in the standing-room only shop and toronto resident Harvey Lin turned the Chinese gastronomic world upside down, stealing the coveted title of Milk Tea King at the annual International Milk Tea Competition held in Hong Kong. Lin, 31, co-owner of Marathon, has been brewing milk tea for only five years, making him a novice compared to his master competitors who have 10 or more years of experience.
