| - I was here once before, and it wasn't impressive enough for me to return until my daughter, who loves Asian food, and I were in Oakland and hungry for dinner. She really wanted bubble tea, and I knew Lulu's had it and was close.
We each ordered bubble milk tea. My daughter had the red bean, and I had the almond. She ended up liking mine better, since the red bean had a very floral taste to it which she was not used to. I traded with her, even though the almond was definitely better.
For food, I had the Pad Thai, and she had Sesame Cold Noodles. My dish was not aesthetically appealing, but it tasted OK. It was not spicy at all, so I added quite a bit of Sriracha.
Once again, my daughter wasn't very pleased with her selection, even though she said it was good. She ended up eating half my plate instead, which was fine by me, since the serving was large. I did try her noodles, and they seemed OK.
The service was very good for us. The server was concerned when my daughter didn't eat her food and offered to take it back, but we weren't that concerned about it.
I wouldn't recommend making a special trip to go to Lulu's, but if you're in the area and don't want to spend a lot of money, it will pass. I will be opting for Crepes Parisienne down the street.
