When Hawaii Kai opened up and I read that it served Poke, I could not resist to try it. I love Poke…read moreand unfortunately, Winnipeg is seriously lacking in Poke options (I believe Chosabi is the only other place that offers Poke). Hawaii Kai is located inside Cityplace mall. It is a take-out spot, catering to the city's downtown office workers. Their menu includes a variety of 'healthy' Hawaiian and Asian cuisine, including salads, smoothies and bubble-tea. I ordered the salmon poke bowl. It came out to about $15. The portion was relatively small for what I expected. The salmon had a strange type of mayo spice on it. The crunch flakes used were reminiscent of cheap Frito corn chips. Overall I was disappointed. I was looking forward to Hawaii Kai as an alternative to Freshii (also located in the mall), but with it being much more expensive for sub-par quality, I think I will be pass on this in the future and head back to Freshii for their rice bowls (I know this is not an apples to apples comparison). This scores 3 out of 5 mainly because of its location and it being the second spot in Winnipeg to offer Poke.

I would give them 5 stars for good customer service. 5 stars for the quality of the bubble teas…read more But 4 stars because I wish there were more flavours. Sometimes their seems to be more tables and chairs but it's always pretty clean in there. The Red Bean Green Matcha bubble tea is kind of creamy and delicious. I really liked it. The second time I tried the Green tea Lemonade drink with Sago transparent bubbles and I thought it went well together. Everything tasted delicious and made me feel glad to be able to drink a delicious bubble tea at this establishment.

This place has a lot of sweet flavors and slush! I tried the Green Apple Green Tea flavor. It was…read morevery sweet and tasted like a green jolly rancher. I couldn't really taste the green tea in it though. I think it would have been better if it had been less sweet and tasted more like green tea. My boyfriend tried the Brown Sugar Soya Milk Tea and it wasn't as sweet as mine, it was more mild and still very delicious. This place also has unique cheesecake bubble tea flavors.

It was a quiet afternoon whe. We got here. This place is beside the domo gas station by polo park…read more Parking is shared with the gas station. The price ranges between $5.00-9.00 per drink. There's lots of different variations of flavours. The shop has around 2-3 tables but no visible washroom to use in the shop. Service was fast since its quiet then.

Craving something sweet on our road trip and this was in the direction of where we were driving so…read morewe decided to stop. There is parking area in the back. What we swallowed: *HALO HALO: I savored every bite of this deliciousness. It took a bit longer than the other drinks but it was worth every minute. *STAWBERRY MANGO POPPING BOBA *MANGO AND MANGO POPPING BOBA *STRAWBERRY WITH RAINBOW JELLY My daughters are 9 and 11 and I can tell when we hit up a good boba place when they finish their drinks. We have been to some places where it's either too sweet, too watery or what other non-sense where the drink is messed up. They finished these and asked if we could come back the next day. Enough said. This place rocks!

Visited this new bubble tea shop on Pembina Hwy which is still in its soft opening stage. Was told…read morethat the grand opening day would be on July 12th. The place is really cute and the owners were kind. The first time I went there, I tried their taro freeze with taro jelly, which comes in a large size. It's topped with whipped cream. The taro flavour is on the milder side and tasted more milky. The owners were open to suggestions and improving their drinks so I suggested to make the taro flavour a bit more stronger and they were susceptible to the feedback. I was able to try their mango pudding which was really good! It tasted just like the ones you would find at the Chinese restaurant at dim sum. The second time I visited, I got their tofu pudding with ginger syrup which is served warm. The tofu pudding was silky smooth. Would have loved for it to come with more syrup but overall it still tasted great. The owner suggested I try it with coconut milk so he gave me some to add to it and I liked it. It was my first time trying tofu pudding this way. I also got to try the tropical fruit tea which was quite good. I tried it without any sugar adjustments and it is on the sweeter side so I would suggest getting it at probably 70% sugar, but if you prefer it to be sweet than at 100% it's perfect for you. The caramel flan was also really good as well. Overall, I would highly recommend coming to try them out!

Ps! I tried the Thai tea and it was very pleasant. Not as sweet as most Thai tea drinks in other…read moreplaces but that didn't make me not like it. I loved it! They also didn't forget to put the pudding in there this time. Yay. Customer service was excellent and I was happy to see that they have a lot of customers lining up for drinks now.

I…read moretried the Pistachio cheesecake with cheese foam bubble tea and the Taro sticky rice yogurt drink. The first one was perfectly delicious and the yogurt drink was a bit too liquified at first but the winter air and a quick walk in the park made the yogurt freeze up a bit and it was very tasty. The service was polite and nice. The 3 long menu panels are now smaller sadly though and they decided not to sell all their wild, creative bubble tea ideas this time and so the menu panel has fewer options now but it still has some unique and interesting flavours for this shop.

While the drinks might not be the most authentic compared to what you'd find in Asia, they're still absolutely delicious, rich in flavour, and super satisfying. Every sip hits the spot... this place will definitely fulfill your bubble tea cravings. I also love how they have such a wide variety of options, toppings, sugar levels, etc. for you to choose from. Also, I have to mention... they were playing My Little Pony on the TV inside when I visited! I have no idea why, but honestly, it just adds to the quirky charm of the place. Totally random, but kind of hilarious. All in all, Khab Tapioca is a great little gem in Winnipeg -- tasty drinks, friendly service, and a fun, cozy vibe that makes you want to come back.

Matcha Smoothie with Tapioca (25% sugar): I don't like my drinks overly sweet and 25% is perfect. The smoothie had a strong tea flavor and was super refreshing. The tapioca peals were made perfectly! Double Happiness with Tapioca (75% sugar): My sister got this one, but it was way to sweet. Even for her, but the lychee jelly made it so worth it!
