Made the drive to meet with fam for lunch next door.
They were running a bit late and waiting in this hundred degree heat was no fun for my cousin, his kid and me. I suggested trying to find a milk tea or boba place to relieve us of this scorching temps. Cuzzo suggested coming here, "I'm sure they have something you'd want."
And that, they did.
Cuzzo skipped the drink as he wanted to keep room for lunch. My niece went for a taro. And since I haven't had Ovaltine since probably my teens, I got their cold version (really, it's just to see if it still had that familiar taste.)
"It'll be about 10 minutes." So we're told.
We came through around 130-ish on a Saturday, so I'd consider this a post-lunch rush. Still, they had people coming through for dine-in. While waiting, I got to see their menu and whoa. They have some pretty good stuff up in here!
(If it were my call, I might have just eaten here instead!)
Our drinks came through in no time. I must have been really thirsty because my first sip was huge, taking almost a third of the cup. It was refreshing, and there was that familiar Ovaltine taste. However, it's watered down... or under-sweetened. (Okay, so I'm not really into sweets, so for me to say that, is sayin' something.) A tablespoon or two might have made it better. It did quench the incessant thirst, but taste-wise... meh.
DRINKS: 2.5. Good, but can be better.
SERVICE: 3. Not a lot of interaction other than putting in the order and the payment.
VALUE: 3.
PARKING: Huge private lot located in a huge complex.
OVERALL: 2.75.
I bumped them up to a 3 because I feel it's not fair to do an overall 2-star review based on a drink. I'll save that for later, should there be a full dine-in experience. Although I may not find myself around this 'hood anytime soon, I am curious about making a stop here to try their foodies.
Someday, maybe...
