GAH, I went all the way to school on Tuesday - not knowing that UBC was closed for READING BREAK. When I got there it dawned on me: "Wait a second...there's no one here!!" I spent 2 and a half hours commuting...for nothing!! *facepalm* Such is my life.
I should've checked online...it was a mistake on my part. On the bright side, I get to sleep in...FOR AN ENTIRE WEEK! Wooo!
Anyways, during one of my breaks the other day, I went to Pearl Fever for some drinks! Pearl Fever is a bubble tea shop with locations in UBC, SFU, Coquitlam, and Surrey! The one at UBC is located in the Village, beside Vera's Burger Shack!
It was surprisingly busy when I went, there was a huge linep! I didn't have to wait long to get my drink though, they're super quick about churning out orders!
Honey Green Tea
2.5/5 stars
This was decent but pretty overpriced imo. I didn't even add pearls, and the drink was $5!! The green flavour was subtle but I could definitely taste the honey. It wasn't too sweet so it was super refreshing!
Green Milk Tea
On another occasion my friend had the green milk tea!
Her rating: 3.5/5 stars
She really liked it! It wasn't overly sweet, and tasted really milky! There was a generous amount of pearls, but they were a tad bit soft. They probably used 2% milk because the drink itself was rather watery.
Here's a look at their menu!
Do the profs at UBC not make any hint or suggestion that reading break is coming up?
ReplyDelete$5 is really expensive for a Honey Green Tea. I mean, I can almost get two pieces of nigiri sushi with that! Luckily, we also have a Bubble World at SFU, which is more reasonably priced!
I think they did...but I forgot LMAO
DeleteIkr, so expensive!! Two pieces of nigiri hahaha
Ah lucky!! Is it an express location or a full sized restaurant? :D
It's an express location that only serves drinks and a few snacks. By snacks, I mean things like Nong Shim bowl noodles.
DeleteBBT cost as much as a meal now. Makes no sense!!
ReplyDeleteI know right, it's ridiculous haha!
