Super Duck Modern Tea, SM Cyberwest

I was invited to attend an event here at Super Duck Modern Tea in SM Cyberwest and I gladly said yes. I went not only because it is near (West Avenue, Quezon City) but because I was curious as to how they'd stand out from their competitors. Remember that time when milk teas were the in thing that milk tea shops were mushrooming...

Christmas Season Update! (Light Shows etc.)

"Tatlong araw na lang, Pasko na!" Ako: O_O If you're gonna ask me what happened to me these past days, I wouldn't be able to answer you. I can't decide whether there wasn't something significant that happened or everything was so sudden I couldn't remember any.  Time flies you wouldn't even realize that a week has already passed. And now, what? It's only...

Happy Lemon's Matcha Latte with Oreo Cookies and Cream

c/o BDO's I Shop. I Choose. I Redeem Promo. Milk teas are an addiction that I'm trying to rehabilitate from. These days, I'm doing my best to refrain from buying them *insert weight and financial issues here* as the reasons why. Maybe it's not bad to have a cup or two or three per month, I'm limiting myself to just that compared to a...

Homemade Milk Tea

I don't really know why am I stopping myself from buying milk teas. The weirdo me abstains from it but still eat other foods, the weirdo me abstains from it but still doesn't save! I realized that there's no point in whatever this is that I'm doing; I'm not saving money nor losing any weight but I continue depriving myself nonetheless. hahaha But...

Chinatown has become a must-visit for every foodie. You may consider it a haven for those who love eating Authentic Chinese food while in budget.

Here's the first stop:Tasty Dumplings in...

Jumbo Sized Milk Tea at Serenitea

When you order a large milk tea from those included in their top ten list, you get upgraded to their jumbo size. This promo ended yesterday though, December 19 I'm more on the not so sweet side when it comes to milk teas.I always make sure my orders have less sugar. Just like my Pearl Milk Tea in Moonleaf and Oolong Tea Mousse in...

Happy Lemon's Green Tea With Rocksalt and Cheese

Albeit not being able to recall which was the first milk tea I've tasted this, Happy Lemon's Green Tea With Rock Salt, is the first I've tried if you're going to talk about those teas which have creams on top. This was my basis or standard upon ordering similar drinks at Gong Cha, Chatime etc.  Hmm, this was the first I had and I was...

El Pollo Loco and Happy Lemon, SM Megamall

It's my first time dining at El Pollo Loco, I didn't know which to get so settled with the chicken. My sister and I shared Combo 1 or two pieces chicken, tortilla and two side dishes (Spanish Rice and French Fries were our choice). I just ordered plain rice for her, and two glasses of large iced teas.  Everything cost around 300.00, not...

Sip Milk Tea

Still not tired of the milk tea fad? Here's another store.   That floral taste. Tsk.  I tried SIP milk tea at Robinson's Galleria, I didn't know what to order so I opted for their Green Milk Tea and on my first sip, I tasted that floral taste again although much milder than what Cha Dao milk tea had, I don't like it....

Tea Tap

I'm loving milk teas too much. As in too much! I'm always on the look out for milk tea cafes these days. And thus, here's another discovery - Teatap Cafe at San Juan. I posted this picture first 'cause this tip bin caught my attention. You are to place a coin and then a cat would  peek and grab it after. So cute,...

Kimpop and Mang Cha-a

I was at Circle C this afternoon to have a 2x2 ID picture taken. I saw a newly-opened milk tea stall. As you all know, since milk teas are the latest hype, milk tea shops have been popping like mushrooms everywhere. I decided to try it and ordered a Pearl Milk Tea which costs me 50.00. It was okay, I mean there's nothing...
