heard about the 2 hour long queues at this bubble tea place in taiwan so I was pleasantly surprised to find... no queue when I went. In addition, being number 11 on the queue that afternoon made me wonder: were there only 10 customers before me??
tried the Uji Snow ($6.50), made of matcha, milk and pearls that are supposedly manufactured in taiwan. essentially a starbucks green tea latte with a stronger matcha flavour and a milkier aftertaste (how do they do that??) though I didn’t get the opportunity to choose the sugar level, I liked that it wasn’t really sweet so the bitterness of the matcha really shone through. at $6.50, though, it is quite pricey, though one cannot deny the drinks do look quite instagram-worthy...
