It's always weird for me to think of Chinatown located anywhere besides New York City, I dunno why.
Definitely report back to us, Derick! |

I got a coupon for a bubble tea place at my school... $1 off! I don't know if I should go use it now though. I'm craving for some, but I'm about to go to the gym.........................

i put my bubble tea in the microwave for 4 minutes the other day so it could melt, lmao. we put bubble tea in the freezer when no one drinks it when its in the fridge
 also sometimes when i get my bubble tea, depending on what flavor i get, the tapioca is like..frozen so when the rice cooker thing is on, i just hold my bubble tea over the hot steam for it to melt ^-----^ |

I'm #19 on the list and my username has been changed a long time ago.
 There's a taiwanese-style 'tea inn' near college so I can enjoy bubble tea regularly.

^ I went with her! I got a strawberry green tea with pearls + Mango Stars.
I always feel like I get tricked when I have bubble tea. Like, what else could I get for $3.75? A whole lot of better things. I think bubble tea is grossly overpriced. They really ought to have half-size servings. |

The bubble tea chain here no longer provides small-size servings, but only regular and large. Which means we have to pay more now (cos I used to buy small only). |

Mango stars, exactly what it sounds like - mango pieces cut into star-shapes around the same size as the pearls. Delicious. I prefer them over the pearls actually. I think they're too big.
