KOI Bubble Tea

Sorry for the lack of updates. I am really, really busy these days! Many things are coming up...I will be much more free in December (i hope)...

Anyway here's KOI BUBBLE TEA from the outlet at People's Park!

TASTE: 4.5/5 (But the standard not very consistant. The recent one I tried not very good)
VALUE: 3/4 (Very ex, I think $2 plus for a normal size cup)

I like to drink bubble tea a lot since secondary school. When I am crazy, I can drink a few cups EVERYDAY in the few months. But sometimes I will just stop drinking it for a few months when I am really sick of it.

I like Koi Bubble Tea a lot. The taste is very similar to the ones in Taiwan. But the standard a bit not consistant, I think really depends on who's the staff that do it for you.

They actually have staff flown down from Taiwan! That justify their high pricing ($2-$3 double SweetTalk's pricing) I know there's outlets in Marine Parade, HDB Hub area, and Chinatown People's Park area...so go get 1 and try. Order the normal bubble milk tea or hazelnut red milk tea! (remember to ask them give LESS pearl, I don't know why they always like to fill HALF the cup with pearls!!!)

Why you should be sad and why am I so happy?

I got a COW key holder! Tks YW for the gift! The smile of the cow brightens my day! Now my bunch of keys is getting heavier...heh


Recently, I feel that people around are always busy, tired, sad, angry, unsatisfied, moody, etc. But I can understand why.
Something to make ur more depressed.


WHY U SHOULD BE SAD?
1) You are studying, slogging through endless assignments and exams, and not having a life.
OR You are working, slogging through endless work you wish you are not doing, and not having a life.
2) You have a lot of friends, and all of them are fakes. Worse if you do not realise that.
3) You realise after all these, you have nothing.
4) You pretend that you are fulfilled or content.


WHY AM I SO HAPPY?
1) I have everything I want. Material, tangible stuff I mean. What do I lack? I cant think of anything. I have everything i want.
2) I am studying full-time, and so many yrs of studying (pri-JC) are probably to get me where I am now. The best is, I don't care about all my work. I have 2 tests on Mon and I am still going to enjoy my weekends.
3) I am working (biz, teaching, etc), and they are what I want to do, and I have an income.
4) I have a bunch of real friends.

I am just kidding about the above. Seriously. I am just blaffing myself. I am miserable too.

Hm anyway...which hotel should I go for my meal later, and should I drive my ferrari or lamborghini?

TASTE: 3.5/5 (Tired of Kinder Bueno? Try this!)
VALUE: 3.5/5 (Even after discount, it is still ard $1.10. Slightly cheaper than Kinder Bueno)

Chewy Junior Donut-Puffs from Bugis Junction

Chewy Junior Donut-Puffs from Bugis Junction.
Is it a donut or is it a puff?
ANS: It's a chewy donut with delicious light fluffy cream in the centre!

The texture is really unique! It's CHEWY! It's like eating a chewy dough with light cream in the centre. The cream is very good, like those fresh cream texture..similar to the Papa Beard puff's cream filling. And it costs only $1.30 each, box of 6 for $7! (Papa Beard's puff costs $2 plus for one right? I can buy 2 of these!)

Eat it fresh, and it tastes better! Or chill it, and u have light chilled cream bursting out when u bite into it! My favourite flavour is DOUBLE CHOCOLATE (as seen in the picture!)

I think the first outlet is at Tanjong Pagar..and it got famous with many newspaper reviews. U can get it now at Bugis Junction. I heard that Bugis Junction outlet's puffs tastes better(as the boss is always there). I don't know as I always buy from Bugis...never buy from Tanjong Pagar before. Quality wise is reasonably consistent. Only complaint is that the cream seems to be a little lesser than the time when I first tried it. 

TASTE: 4 to 4.5/5 (I can't think of a substitute for it? I don't see other shops offering such chewy donuts puffs! Unique products get bonus pts!)
VALUE: 4/5 (It's only $1+ each! Really worth it!)
VERDICT: MUST TRY!  

Go try it!

I think they should pay me for writing such a good review for them.

Morinaga Milk Chocolate

Got this off the shelf from 7-11, at $2 only (UP: $2.50). Made in Japan, good quality chocolate. 

TASTE: 4/5 (Can really taste chocolate, unlike some brands which have a 'flour' taste when too low percentage of chocolate solids is used. Only complaint is that the choco bar is too thin...)
VALUE: 4/5 ($2 only! It's Japanese quality!)

Look out for the next review coming soon, on Cadbury Gourmet Dessert Chocolate Bar!...
