Boba

I haven't had boba since I've been here.  Actually, I've had it, but not from a boba place.  I made the mistake of getting a boba milk tea from this Chinese place a few weeks ago, and suffice to say I wish I hadn't.  This time, I went to Tapioca Express in the Asian Ghetto.

It was pretty good.  The boba milk tea was up to the normal standard (do Tap Ex's around the world all have the same recipe or someting?), and the crispy chicken was pretty good.  One thing I didn't like so much was that the dude didn't apply the cayenne pepper/shake the bag for me.  To be fair, the portion was gigantic and he'd never have been able to do it, but I had to try to shake a bunch on top then mix it later once I got back home.  It didn't really work.  Also, the chicken was marinated, but it was a litle salty.  Anyway, I'd prefer something from home, but this did the job.

The unfortunate thing is that I spent enough to qualify this as ATE OUT, and I'm usually inclined to give myself a break.  Oh well!
