| - Since designated bubble tea places are scarce where I'm from, I made sure to get my fill during my trip in Toronto. CoCo happened to be next to where we were having dinner, so I wanted to stop by afterwards as a sweet treat.
I decided to go with the iced 3 Guys Milk Tea, since it seems to be what they're known for. I thought it was delicious and super filling. Granted I did order a large with light ice, but it would definitely be filling on an empty stomach as well. My boyfriend opted for a regular blank with pudding. He seemed to like his and finished it rather quickly.
My only gripe is that they use giant spoonfuls of pudding and grass jelly, instead of cutting it up a little to make it easier to slurp up through the straw. You have to do some fancy slicing with your straw to break it up, in order to be able to drink it.
This place was actually probably one of my top favorites, in all that I've had, in terms of bubble tea. CoCo is one of the few places I've been with a close resemblance to bubble tea places in Asian countries. The atmosphere, along the variety of options they have, are very similar to those in Asia. That's a really high-end compliment coming from me.
It was rather busy while we were there, and they were apologetic for it. I didn't mind the wait, since we weren't in any hurry. But I could tell they were dealing with some difficult customers before and after us. Props to them for handling it so well. I didn't have much interaction with the employees, but they were working hard.
If I were ever in the area again, I'd definitely make CoCo one of my stops.
