Here's my drink from yesterday! I came back from Hong Kong in the morning/early afternoon, and the one thing I did before I hopped on the bus back home was pick up boba from Gong Cha.

It was close to home, convenient, near my weekly volunteer spot, and overall in a plaza good to hang out in with shopping and food spots around.
