Got (kinda) "one" large bamboo charcoal latte with brown sugar boba for $6.69 after tax. The drink is probably big enough to split with 2, but you can also finish one yourself no problem.
I have been here ~5 times before without incident and it has always been in 4-5 star category, aka good enough to come back despite a lot of other choices in the area. With this last experience, definitely hitting nearby Ptea for a little bit.
The first drink we got was just straight up the wrong drink - I think it was the same drink as the person after us, but it came out at the same time as theirs so we can't have stolen their drink mistakenly. Accidents happen, whatever, we'll wait for them to make it again.
The second drink we got had SESAME boba in it. Luckily, neither my partner nor I are allergic to sesame, but this CANNOT happen as sesame allergies can be deadly! The sesame boba do look like the brown sugar ones, my partner found out after taking a sip. When she went to give it back to them, I heard the workers say in Cantonese (my partner is white and wouldn't understand what they were saying) that she "just didn't like sesame." No you guys, you potentially gave someone a deadly allergen, come on...
They gave us the sesame one for free (since nobody went into anaphylactic shock, I guess) which I gave to a friend, and it's the one pictured. The third tea was too sweet (they definitely forgot about the 50% sugar) but I was pretty done with them at that point.
Hit PTea or Moge Tee within walking distance or go to Beauty ChinaTea Store about half a mile down the road, have had good experiences in the past here but this last one was pretty awful.
