I’ve actually heard about ChiChaSanChen for a while, having a Michelin-equivalent of boba. I think this location opened more relatively recently though, but still not super close to where I live. To be honest, this wasn’t on my boba bucket list before going back to Japan in a few days, but now my mom is… Continue reading Green Tea – Chi Cha San Chen
Happy New Year! Today was mostly a chill day after going to sleep past midnight, and I didn't really have any plans. I assumed most stuff would be closed today, but you know what's not closed, big corporations, yay! Specifically, I had been meaning to go to Target to buy snacks to take back to… Continue reading Special Boba Milk Tea – BenGong’s Tea
Happy New Year’s Eve! I recently showed my dad Bopomofo Cafe’s menu, because I’ve been following them for a while (I’m a huge Wong Fu fan!), and they somewhat recently opened an Orange County location. Since my dad was willing to drive to Rowland Heights, I figured Artesia was also on the table. Turns out,… Continue reading Jasmine Milk Tea – Bopomofo Cafe
Today I went on a Los Angeles date with my wife friend! We went to a couple museums, got Italian food for dinner, and then ended the day with boba and donuts for dessert. I happened to find a Loose Leaf in the area, which was a surprising find, but hey, I could introduce my… Continue reading Chrysanthemum – Loose Leaf Boba Company
Today was just a chill day at home. My mom was talking about the famous Chi Cha San Chen, so my dad and I were going to drive to Rowland Heights so I could go try it, but various factors led us to being ready pretty late in the afternoon, and at that point, it… Continue reading Phoenix Oolong Tea Latte – Bako Tea House
I didn't have a drink today, but I did go do some shopping with my dad, and one of our stops was Trader Joe's. It's next to the Omomo, but today the line (as usual) was pretty long, and instead, I wanted to check out the new Wanderlust Creamery that opened up somewhat recently. It's… Continue reading Thai Tea with Boba Ice Cream – Wanderlust Creamery
Okay, so yes, I did have a drink earlier today. Yes, this is my second boba for the day, but they were both for different reasons...my high school friends and I did a hot pot get together, and someone proposed boba, and I offered suggestions on where to go. We ended up at Sunright, and… Continue reading Mango Yakult – Sunright Tea Studio
This morning I had a dentist appointment, and a variety of factors led us to the somewhat recently opened R&B Tea located in Zion market. I was looking up their menu on Google and Yelp, when I saw that Yelp reported that location closed…funny…and sure enough, when I went in, the store was completely abandoned.… Continue reading Tie Guan Yin Oolong Latte – TPTea
Today my family and I went out to try a new brunch place. Speaking of this plaza, there is Orobae with the endless line. While my dad went to go brave the line for us (the real mvp), we killed some time in Daiso and Mitsuwa. Orobae has really changed their menu, especially the milk… Continue reading Red Jade Milk Tea – Orobae
I’be landed safely and got out of the airport in no time! I was on my way home and we passed the plaza the new Junbi is in, so we took a temporary detour and got some boba! Is it still the same day if I traveled back in time, or did I have two… Continue reading Guava Matcha Latte – Junbi
