9:30 PM and it's still hot out... nothing a little milk tea can't fix!
After having dinner at Yukga KBBQ, we walked to Serenitea for dessert. It's a pretty popular boba shop chain here.
This location is on the ground floor of the Calyx Centre condominium building. The walk-up window to order is outside (open air with a ceiling), and the seating area is inside. The entrance is on the left side. Strange layout. It was pretty empty, with lots of chairs and tables available. My family was very loud and we essentially kicked out the one patron who was sitting down before we walked in... sorry
More or less, the menu is similar to their other shops. Mostly milk teas, along with slushies, iced teas, brewed teas, coffee, snacks and other options. We ordered seven drinks, which were ready promptly.
My flight to Manila the next day was bright and early...I should have been sleeping at this hour. Tea does contain some caffeine, and sugar keeps me awake so this was not a good idea. But I "compromised" and ordered a smaller drink size. My Cookie Supreme Matcha came with a swirl of crème brulée, which was custardy and creamy. The crushed cookie bits on top were nice. I thought the matcha was a wee bit faint. The pearls were fine.
