One of the things I miss about Toronto is the convenience to get boba/bubble tea/珍珠奶茶 (whichever you like to call it). It's not that there aren't any in Tokyo, they are just located in touristy areas (places I hardly go to... and when I do there is usually a LONG line) I have seen this at Family Mart for quite some time and I finally managed to buy it and try!
impressions:
- not real milk tea... tastes like Japanese royal milk tea >____<
- tapioca tastes like it is made out of 大菜糕 (not chewy enough and very veggie like)

| the "tapioca" |
first off for what you pay for, it is a good deal (only ¥238). BUT... it tastes nothing like the real thing. The tapioca isn't made from the same ingredients in authentic tapioca, they are less chewy, smaller, and not sweet.
I was very disappointed with the milk tea. It tasted a lot of Japanese Royal Milk Tea. If you haven't had the real thing, this is worth a try, but if you had the real authentic Bubble Milk Tea then you will be quite disappointed.
score: 6.5/10
