Everyone overhypes up Chatime, and I before you guys think I'm going to say that everyone is wrong, no in fact everyone should be hyping this up. This is like goddamn Asian Starbucks.
Like one Asian dude looked at Starbucks one day and went: (Read in any Oriental Asian accent) "Starbucks is doing pretty good now, I wonder why. I think it's because all the white people love coffee. Wait. All the Asian people like bubble tea. Why don't I just do the same thing?"
BOOM. Instant success.
I lined up for an hour for one of their drinks, and in the end I wasn't even mad.
It was really good. Maybe it's because I got super thirsty waiting for a drink, but doesn't matter because I did drink all of one regular in less than a minute.
People are giving bad reviews to these guys, and it's probably because they have high expectations of a freaking bubble tea place. Give them a break, it's clearly better than Bubble Republic.
