Snoice has moved into the former Creamistry location on Clairemont Mesa Blvd next door to Jersey Mike's Subs in Kearny Mesa. The grand opening will be on January 8th, but they are operating limited afternoon hours between now and then as part of their soft opening phase. The parking situation here is so much easier than the original shop in Spring Valley. Besides changing the interior with some branding on the walls to reflect the Snoice franchise, not a lot was altered other than removing the nitrogen stand mixers from the product preparation area.
Shaved snow, teas (milk, fruit, loose-leaf), and halo-halo desserts were the featured menu offerings. The unlimited boba membership pass for $29/month was an interesting concept. You can come back as frequently as every three hours for a drink with boba included. The varieties are limited to select flavors (e.g. Thai Tea, Saigon Milk Tea, Jasmine Milk Tea) and NOT to every available tea selection so buyer beware.
I decided to order a large custom Halo-Halo after trying the original Halo-Halo recently at an Elite Perk promotion. The dessert came with a choice of up to six toppings on top of the base of crushed ice and evaporated milk. My picks were sweet banana, sweet potato, purple yam, caramel flan, boba, and tapioca. I also added a scoop of ube ice cream for an extra $1. The concoction was super sweet with a lot of great texture. It's a decadent treat that I can only indulge in every once in a while, otherwise the calories would pile up.
