  This is a Chinese/Taiwainese shop in Kerrisdale that serves the aforementioned bubble tea (andother drinks) and a variety of popular Asian snacks and meals. I had their Fresh Taro Bubble Tea (with pearls), Pork Dumplings and Chicken Nuggets. The food was fairly good, and I thought that their bubble tea was solid. I did find the price for their drinks to be a bit expensive: the are generally around $5-$5.5 plus an additional $0.5 if you want pearls (which you do since it’s not bubble tea without pearls); the prices for their food, however, are very reasonable. The service was pretty minimal, but the staff was friendly. All in all, I’d recommend checking this place out.Pork Dumplings ($8.95):3.5/5This came with ten boiled dumplings. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the dumplings were actually pretty juicy (similar to xiao long bao). The ground pork was also quite tender, although I could have done with a touch more salt.Chicken Nuggets ($5.95 on Mondays, $8.95 regular):3.5/5This is on special on Monday. The pieces of chicken were quite meaty and juicy and well seasoned, with a salty and slightly peppery flavour. I would have liked it to be a bit more crispy.Fresh Taro Bubble Tea ($6):4/5The bubble tea was thick and creamy, and not overly sweet. I was very pleased to find that it wasn’t at all icy (i.e. you can drink the whole thing without the bottom part turning into a block of ice). The pearls had a nice chewy texture.Summary:Food: 3.5/5Price: 3.5/5Service: 3/5Overall: 3.5/5Recommendations: Chicken Nuggets, Fresh Taro Bubble Tea
