Milk Tea #5: Serenitea

I agree that you don’t get your ordinary cup of tea when in Serenitea. They offer numerous (and unique) sinkers, as well as tasty snacks and various drinks. I consider this as my 2nd favorite milk tea place, next to Golden Chopsticks.

I treated myself with Medium Cranberry Black Tea (P80) with Green Tea Jelly (P15) and I didn’t regret giving this palce a shot because the drink is simply phenomenal. It is sour and zesty and the green tea jelly is so abundant. It is perfect for those who love sour fruit tea like me. I hope that I’ll be able to find time to pay this place a visit  soon so that I can try their other products especially the pepper tofu.

Wai Ying Fastfood

Just like Quick Snack, Wai Ying serves authentic Chinese food  at a very affordable rate. I like eating in this place because you get to enjoy every cent that you shed out of your pocket. It is not a place where you can have intimate gatherings because the place looks busy, crowded and cluttered but I don’t mind going here because the food is awesome.

Free Soup- I think that this is beef stock. It’s a bit salty but good enough.

Milk Tea #4: Happy Fanshu

Happy Fanshu is actually one of the first milk tea places that I’ve tried. My favorite is Lychee Tea with nata but I stopped buying that ever since Mogu-mogu came into picture. I decided to give this place another shot because I miss the taste of their milk tea

Medium Wintermelon Milk Tea (P60) with Pearls (P5). This is what I consider as a “safe” drink ( if you’re unsure of what to order) since almost everyone appreciates this.

Milk Tea #3: Cha Dao Tea Place

Let’s now talk about another place that sells milk tea. Cha Dao (which means the way of tea) recently opened near UST and we took advantage of their free up size promo. They also gave out oatmeal raisin cookies which I truly love. I hope that they’ll sell those cookies because I’m sure that their loyal patrons will also appreciate that product.

Honeydew Fruit Tea (P55) with Popping Boba (P10). The drink itself is bland and the tea part is not strong enough. The Popping Boba is just like Golden Chopstick’s popping. Even if you can only choose from strawberry and lychee popping boga, theirs is cheaper than Golden Chopsticks..

Milk Tea #2: Golden Chopsticks

The milk tea craze is on and there are now several shops in the Metro, hoping to win your tastebuds with their own, unique and creative version of this popular drink. My first favorites used to be Simple Line and Happy Fanshu and it felt like i hit the jackpot when Golden Chopsticks opened in UST early last year. They offer numerous add-ons and various drinks ranging from milk tea, fruit juice, fruit tea, or simply tea. Their add-ons area also different from the other mainstream stores and they also claim that their charcoal collagen and basil seeds add-ons have health benefits.

Medium Yogurt Tea (P45) with Lychee Popping (P15) The yogurt tea is my favorite one since it tastes like Yakult. I suggest that you add lychee popping so that you’ll have more flavor to the drink. By the way, to those of you who don’t know what a popping is, it is like tapioca with some fruit juice inside. Golden Chopsticks has three poppings: Strawberry, Lychee and Yogurt.
