geek_frappa Posted March 4, 2004 at 03:24 PM Report Posted March 4, 2004 at 03:24 PM does anybody have a favorite boba(bubble) tea flavor? Quote
TSkillet Posted March 4, 2004 at 04:45 PM Report Posted March 4, 2004 at 04:45 PM I'd have to go with the original milk tea. By the way, going to Taichung and having the "original" really is worth it if you're a big big fan (and already in taichung) Quote

Guest BobaFind Posted March 28, 2004 at 02:43 AM Report Posted March 28, 2004 at 02:43 AM For all you Bubble Tea fans... BobaFind.com allows bubble tea drinkers to locate boba shops in their area. You can search by zipcode, State, post a question in the forums, and add your locations if they are not in our database. There is also a lot of good information about Boba. Hope you guys wil find this resource useful. Joel Quote
TSkillet Posted March 29, 2004 at 07:01 PM Report Posted March 29, 2004 at 07:01 PM It's pretty popular now in Houston - especially between Bellaire (Chinatown), Midtown and Downtown. Here's where I go: Teahouse - the one in RiverOaks on Westheimer near Shepherd Tapioca Express (yeah, part of the chain) - the one I go to is at Westpark because it's run by a Cantonese family and I don't get a lot of opportunities to speak Cantonese in a mainly Mandarin immmigrant city Tropioca - not really as good as the ones above, but I know the owners, and the honeydew slushy is really tasty.

geek_frappa Posted March 29, 2004 at 07:26 PM Author Report Posted March 29, 2004 at 07:26 PM sounds good! do you have pictures of your teahouse? what does it look like? is there a specific recipe for milkteas? or does it vary from person to person? Quote
tetsuo500 Posted March 30, 2004 at 02:19 AM Report Posted March 30, 2004 at 02:19 AM I usually have the original "pearl milk tea". My other favourites are coconut flavour and mint flavour - the coconut one is especially good when it has pieces of coconut in it. And when I don't feel like a milky tea, I usually order lychee flavour green tea with pearls. Quote
tara Posted March 30, 2004 at 02:57 AM Report Posted March 30, 2004 at 02:57 AM My fav is honey green tea with pearls. Quote
geek_frappa Posted March 30, 2004 at 03:00 AM Author Report Posted March 30, 2004 at 03:00 AM that sounds yummy. i guess people drink boba tea more in the spring and summer? Quote
bhchao Posted June 20, 2005 at 11:34 AM Report Posted June 20, 2005 at 11:34 AM I would have to go for the boba 奶綠. In LA, I prefer to get it at Tenren. In New York, it would have to be Mott Street. Quote
Jo-Ann Posted June 24, 2005 at 02:58 AM Report Posted June 24, 2005 at 02:58 AM Am I the only person in the world who has never had Boba Tea? Am I the only person in the world who doesn't care if she ever has Boba Tea? I guess I like my Gunpowder/GuanYin/Whatever plain, hot, steeped, and in a Chinese cup. I guess I'm a party pooper. Quote
bhchao Posted June 24, 2005 at 04:30 AM Report Posted June 24, 2005 at 04:30 AM Actually I am not a fan of boba, and haven't drank boba tea for over a year. When I do get boba, I prefer large-sized ones. Usually I get cold oolong tea, cold black tea, or 梅子綠茶. Quote
Emilie Posted June 24, 2005 at 05:12 PM Report Posted June 24, 2005 at 05:12 PM anybody near East China Normal University in Shanghai? Here is one near the Dormitory No. 7 in the campus. I like its strong milk flavor Quote
