| - To say I am a fan of Bubbles (as us frequent goers call it) would be an understatement. This has been my friends and my choice for bubbletea since the beginning of our driving days (that was 7 years ago - yes I am old!) Unlike other bubbletea places, Bubbles is open late and offers a great variety of food and unique drinks until the wee hours of the morning. It's a great setting for a first date - although it can get quite loud on certain nights; girls night - nothing provokes gossip better than some wings and lychee jelly; a time filler between events - the quick service on non prime hours are superb; basically I would recommend this place for any casual get together.
The prices, although a bit higher than other bubbletea places, is well worth the experience. Unlike most conventional bubbletea places, Bubbles offer a large selection of uniquely created drinks with equally unique names. It is the only place I can ever go and order a "Lonely" which is passion fruit and lychee flavored slush topped with vanilla ice cream. Yum! The atmosphere is welcoming and the decor, trendy; although the chairs are more esthetically pleasing than comfy. Might I also recommend, a booth?
Rather than wing night, Bubbles offers Happy Hour specials - 25 cent wings before 9 PM. They offer the typical flavors - salt and pepper, honey garlic, hot, super hot but the drool worthy flavor and my all time fave: spicy honey. It's a combination of honey garlic and hot. Yet another original creation that keeps my friends and I coming back for more.
A few more of my faves:
BBT wise - Jade, the aforementioned Lonely, taro milk tea, black sesame taro slush
Snack wise - wings, chicken karaage, spicy chicken udon
After 7 long years of patronage, you can still find my friends and I there, almost every Thursday night. Yes, we will be among the mass of other Asians; talking loudly. Feel free to wave!
