Chakaa quickly grew to be one of my go-tos while I was in college in San Diego. The vibes were cool, drinks were consistently good, and there was a variety on the menu to chosoe from. The location was also really good, on the middle of Convoy street, and easily accessible from the good food… Continue reading Bobo – Chakaa
Today my sister and I went to go see Wicked in theaters! Tuesdays are discounted at AMC, so we went to see an afternoon showing. The movie was really good! After the movie, we went to get boba next door at Cha for Tea. I was looking at the online menu beforehand, and was deciding… Continue reading Honey Black Milk Tea – Cha for Tea
Ah, Dayung's. It was really more of a recent local find during my last year of college, but honestly it was a bit of a hidden gem (personally, anyway). The menu was pretty varied and large, the drinks were good quality, and the boba was quality too. It became one of my roomies' go-to spots,… Continue reading Taiwan Fruit Teas – Dayung’s Tea
I have no idea who actually invented brown sugar boba, but nowadays a nickname for the drink is "Tiger" something, because if you drip brown sugar syrup on the edge of the cup it looks like the stripes of a tiger. If you ever see somthing like "Tiger Milk" on a boba menu somewhere, it's… Continue reading The Origin of the Trend? – Tiger Sugar
I don't know if this slogan is recent or if I didn't hear of it until now, but Cha definitely always gives cups of happiness with their drinks! I had always heard good things about it, but didn't actually try it until a few years ago when I went on excursions to new places one… Continue reading Cup of Happiness – Cha for Tea
Is it counterintuitive to get a post-dentist drink? Whatever the case, I went to my second dentist appointment of the year, and stopped by Cha for Tea afterwards since it's nearby. Man, I still remember writing the post earlier in the year about having my dentist appointment too early in the morning...no longer a problem… Continue reading Thai Cooler – Cha for Tea
Cheers to finishing finals for this quarter! Here's a celebratory drink for the beginning of winter break! 🙂 How we ended up deciding on Cha for Tea was actually kind of roundabout...First my dad went shopping today and suggested Cha for Tea as the "fried chicken place", so then I told my mom he wanted… Continue reading Mango Green Tea – Cha for Tea
I'm very tired, since I did not get much sleep last night and I still attended class today. Took one test, one more to go (which I gotta study more for, yikes), and one more this week. This fire nearby kind of destroyed my routine and productivity (first world problem, I know), but that's a… Continue reading Thai Milk Tea – Cha for Tea
Apparently the second Amazon Fresh store opened nearby, so my parents took me out for a drive, to which I agreed if I could get a drink after. As we were approaching the store, I noticed a huge line outside. Since my parents just wanted to check it out, they decided to go back another… Continue reading Honey Green Milk Tea – Cha for Tea
