Drink: Large Soy Jasmine Latte
Atmosphere: Oh man, the menu is overwhelming! It's directly above the counter and it's HUGE with everything written with chalk. Took me a good 2 minutes to decide with my head tilted back and mouth open lookin' up. (Rest assured, I did not look foolish by myself as there were 3 others doing so). But yeah, it was a rainy day yesterday and this place was packed! They have many baked treats and what not, but I did not get to take pictures of this place because I was in a rush.
Onto the drink. I really really REALLY wanted to like this. It has potential. The taste of my jasmine latte was just aromatic and lovely. I personally LOVE jasmine tea... maybe 'cause I'm asian... I don't know. But, damn, did the barista put WAY too much powder in it! Within my first sip, I already had that powder break down in my mouth. But as I drank more, it diluted better. Then it came back in the end. I had to let my drink sit so all the chunky powder would rest and slowly drink the rest of it. Sigh.
Verdict: If the barista learns to measure the amount of powder used, I'd come back for sure, but for now she needs to try her own creation and not just eyeball the measurements.

(It has potential or maybe 'cause of my Jasmine asian bias thing)
