    This site has sentimental value to me, since it was where Next Collection used to be located. Imagine how difficult it was to purchase car parts (and all the decals!) back when the mod scene was in its infancy stage. Next Collection was the spot that handled all our needs. Those of you old enough to remember Tuning Concept magazine can sympathize with me. I was sad to see the place go due to widespread competition, but was glad to see a tapioca shop filling up the vacancy. Unfortunately, that place, called My Love Cafe (Justin Timberlake had nothing to do with it), was simply horrible. Each time I rolled by, I counted a collective total of zero patrons. To top it all off, there was a sign out front that read, "Today [sic] special. Tuna fish sandwich $2." I don't know, man. With all the cuisine choices in Chinatown, tuna isn't exactly high up there on my wishlist. That sign was up every single day until the shop finally gave up the ghost. Luckily, a tenant worthy of the Next Collection location - the world famous franchise, Quickly - is now in that very spot. Not much needs to be said about the big Q that hasn't been already. Hurray Quickly. RIP Next Collection.

    Jasmine Milk Tea with small Boba and Takoyaki!

    Head down 10th street, make a left on Webster and a right on 7th street and head down to the Quicklys there because there's better: +customer service and attention +free wifi +better parking You get the point. This Quicklys always has cashiers that aren't very friendly, always seems to be growling when I pass by, and never have taro! My dear lord. It's right next to my weekend jon, so I'm always headed here for a quick drink and snack. They take long and it's a small spot. I'd avoid coming to this one if you can, but for convenience sake, I do.

    Quickly is probably the first boba place I went to when I got introduced to bubble tea. Seeing that this particular boba brand has been dying down, I'm really glad this particular one in Chinatown is still around. This is my go to place ever for jasmine milk tea. That is the drink I order 99% of the time. They just make it right for my tastes buds. I've had jasmine milk tea elsewhere like I-tea, T4, TapEx, etc. but, quickly is the one I always come back to. Some places make it too creamy for my liking whereas quickly has found the right balance of tea flavoring and creamer. Absolute perfection. A large jasmine milk tea with boba usually rings up to $3 only! Sometimes $2.75 even! I don't really know how their pricing works since each time I find that it's a different price (plus or minus $0.25) I don't get food here often since it is more like snack foods and usually I'm out looking for more dense meals for lunch. However, when I do, I really enjoy their popcorn chicken rice bowls. That use to be one of my favorites back in the days. Also, their fried fish balls are delicious. Love being able to adjust the salt pepper seasoning by myself so I can make it just right. In my experience, service is pretty fast. My one drink order is really simple so that may be why. Literally in and out in less than 5 mins which is amazing when I'm in a rush.

    So I ordered the popcorn chicken from this Quickly, and it wasn't fully cooked. The insides were pinker than any safe chicken should be.

    I COULD HAVE BEEN SICK. I ordered popcorn chicken and the inside of the chicken was PINK. Like it was genuinely really pink and really chewy like only the outside was fried. My friend already ate a couple pieces and I will update you guys she is already feeling a bit sick.

    It's a Quicky's in Chinatown surrounded by many others Boba spots. Not the best or worst of quicklys. A small shop that has one table so more so a quick takeout spot. Sometimes I crave a quickly quality drink popcorn chicken and Thai tea snow but otherwise it's like any other quickly and it fulfills that duty. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here much better options around Chinatown but if times is of the essence swing by here. Also you can order from Doordash for quick pickups.

    froyo guide

    I had this brilliant idea to put boba in my froyo, so off I went to Quickly with Jeff C (http://www.yelp.com/biz/quickly-oakland#hrid:LZnNkQFxNKOTIgltpHj58Q). Each of us got a small (5 oz) at the promotional price of 59 cents, with 3 toppings ($1.50), totaling slightly over $2. I chose boba, mango stars, and lychee. Cheapest Froyo yet! Service was friendly, but the store was small with nowhere to sit. We also could not see the toppings available; however, there was a nifty poster with pictures of THIRTY available toppings (not including boba) such as chestnuts, the standard fruits, aloe, yogurt chips, litchi, marshmallows, mochi, and various jellies and chewy things. Check out my picture of the froyo guide!! So the nice lady gave me my froyo, but I saw that it was quite funny looking. Very melted and smothered with toppings. The cup was not very full compared to at other places, but this may be because a third of it had melted already. It was over 80 degrees outside, but still. I ended up pretty much drinking my froyo...not too bad with the boba actually! Now I know why boba isn't on the list of toppings. Jeff's froyo didn't melt so quickly, so we decided that the boba was probably hot, melting the froyo. That was fun.

    It is a very small spot, so it's a good place to grab drinks when you are on a run. The milk tea was yummy. This time, the pearls didn't have much taste. The staff was friendly and offered fast service. I like watching the music videos and dramas they have on TV while waiting for my drinks.

    Location: Street parking same street as Shan Donf restaurant! Customer Service: The girl that was working was very friendly but was the slowest ever! Decor: It's dirty seriously, I've been to other quickly sand this place is the worst! Presentation of Food: We got burnt eggette a ); How did the food taste?: Gross, it was light weight burnt on the outside and once we bit into the eggette it wasn't even crispy and plus in the inside it wasn't light and airy it was straight gouey as if the batter didn't cook all the way through ugh! Overall Experience: Slow service, horrible food, so dirty?! Would I Come Back?: No I rather go to another place );

    Overall, the milk tea there isn't on my top list. But, it is a place to get a casual beverage when you are thirsty.

    5/5 Stopped by Drink…read moreThicc Smoothie on 24th Street and it definitely lived up to the hype. The smoothies were super flavorful, fresh, and well worth it. I'll definitely be coming back! The pricing is reasonable at $12 for a small and $17 for a large. I also liked that they offer plenty of add-ins like pre-workout, post-workout, and other supplements for just $1-$2 each, so you can customize your drink however you like. The customer service was excellent--friendly, welcoming, and quick. As for the location, it's in Oakland, so just use the same awareness you normally would, but I felt comfortable during my visit. Overall, a great smoothie spot with quality drinks, lots of customization options, and outstanding service. Highly recommend!

    I got the Slim Thicc and unforch wasn't as impressed as I thought I would be. My fruity hankering…read morewas definitely satiated; but the drink itself was not as refreshing as I thought it would be (esp for the price) and not as cold as I expected. The workers were nice and speedy! Super friendly vibes that match the lil walk-up window sitch. There are a few tables outside for folks to sit at but no actual inside to enjoy your smoothie in. Parking is hit or miss in this part of the town. I'll have to come back and give their other smoothies a try! I believe they change up one of their flavors every week.

    I have been to several places that offer acai bowls, and Main Squeeze in Alameda does a great job!…read more Of course, the place could use more seating, but I'm okay with taking my bowl to-go. I was there on a warm Sunday, just to try their acai bowls. There's four acai bowls on the menu board, so I asked the gentleman behind the counter....."which is the best acai bowl?" With confidence, he said...."the Oasis Bowl." He likes the Oasis Bowl because it features seasonal fruit. That means the recipe and taste experience can change with the seasons. When I was there, the seasonal fruit was pineapple. This place makes a good acai bowl. For $13.00, it's not overflowing with fruit toppings. Instead, it's packed with fresh fruit, crispy granola, chia seeds, honey and coconut flakes on top of a acai base. It's definitely a meal, not a fruit bowl snack. The interior is very clean. It has a small outdoor patio. According to signage, there's no indoor seating. Main Squeeze is located near the Park Street Downtown. It's walking distance from the Alameda Theatre, public parking lot, and Alameda High School.

    Service is amazing!
