Today’s my last day at home in America before heading back to Japan. I was craving Arby’s curly fries because they’re a unique American favorite of mine, and Jan Jam is in the same plaza! It’s quickly becoming a new family favorite, and we all look forward to getting their drinks. Today I went with… Continue reading Oolong Milk Tea – Jam Jam Tea Lab
A couple of days before I head back to Japan, I managed to meet up with another friend! We got dinner together at a poke place, and then ended the night sipping boba from Class 302 while taking a walk and reminiscing about our shared childhood. Gosh I haven’t been to 302 in a while.… Continue reading Litchi Guava – Class 302
Today I met up with a friend for a boba date catch up! We for sure were going for boba, but didn’t decide on a place beforehand. Since I had Jam Jam recently and actually really liked it, I suggested we go to also get her opinion on it. Last time I ordered, I would… Continue reading Osmanthus Milk Tea – Jam Jam Tea Lab
Today I met up with a childhood friend for lunch! We ran into each other about a week ago purely coincidentally, and wanted to meet up again to properly catch up. After getting lunch, we obviously had to get boba. We were talking about boba in town, and I mentioned I had yet to try… Continue reading Golden Leaf Tea Latte – Macu Tea
Today was my dental deep cleaning part 2! After my appointment was over, I walked over to a nearby Target, did some shopping while waiting to get picked up (no car problems), and killed some time.

Browsing the secret menu and then going back to the main tea menu, I realized 7 Leaves put a new matcha drink on their normal menu: a… Continue reading Matcha Latte – 7 Leaves Cafe
Yesterday we made a pit stop in Monterey on our way down from San Francisco. Originally we wanted to go see the aquarium, but we left too late that by the time we would arrive the expensive tickets wouldn’t be worth it. I found a boba place, and we decided to check it out. The… Continue reading Lavender Milk Tea – Bobalicious & Bites
Yesterday I spent the day in San Francisco to hang out with my boyfriend for our 5th anniversary together! Thanks to my dad for driving! We got pho for lunch, and then headed down the street for boba. I think TJ has changed a little since I was last here. There’s a kiosk now! TJ… Continue reading Premium Thai Iced Tea – TJ Cups
My family is taking a brief Bay Rea trip! Mostly so I can go see my boyfriend over winter break while I’m in America, so thanks to the family for taking me! We stopped by a Chinese restaurant in San Carlos last night, and incidentally, the Boba Guys we found on Google happened to be… Continue reading Apple Fresca – Boba Guys
Yesterday I went out with friends I haven’t seen for 6 years (!) to get dinner together! It was really great getting to catch up and realize how much, and how little, has changed. After dinner we had to get boba, and we headed to Omomo which was nearby. Surprisingly, the line wasn’t too bad!… Continue reading Taro Paste with Fresh Milk – Omomo Tea Shoppe
