Just moved to Lakeland and my husband and I were on a search for the best boba spot in town. My…read morenewest obsession has been oreo smoothies, basically a dairy free version of Oreo milkshake! My husband loves his fruit teas. Upon walking into the shop it was a gem of a spot, they had plenty of cute gifts and Knick knacks-- plushies, scented candles, toys, bags, backpacks, keychains, nostalgic candies and even Asian snacks! The service here is superb! The cashier was very friendly and even went above and beyond and offered to wash my little one's binky when he dropped it on the floor, the fact that she noticed that while taking an ordered shows she is very attentive. She also took the time to explain the drinks to us, informing us the tea levels and even the taste of drinks and she was spot on! We'll definitely be back to try out their food next!

I have been hearing about the new Japanese bakery in Lakeland and been wanting to try it out, and…read moreit did not disappoint! The main thing I wanted to try here was the fluffy Japanese pancakes. But a good heads up to know is they take about 20 minutes to make because they have to cook at a really low heat. So if you go there to have those make sure you're not needing to be somewhere right after- we didn't have time to wait so I will be back for those for sure. They had so many options that sounded good but ended up trying a jelly pudding that was in the shape of a capybara. They have other animal puddings too like a duck and cat. It was so cute and tasted as delicious as it looked adorable. The peach boba tea we had was great too. It was sweet and a little sour and packed with flavor. The tapioca pearls were cooked and soft like they should be. I also loved the vibe in here. It's crazy how different the inside looks from its last tenant that was Twisted Sugar, a cookie place. It's so color and so much more inviting inside now, and a good amount of seating even for being a small place.

I have visited Dalat Town on multiple occasions over the last year and it continues to be one of my…read morefavorite places to eat in Lakeland. On my most recent visit for dinner I had the Shrimp & Pork Spring Rolls and Chicken Pho. The Spring Rolls have a soft sticky shell filled with crisp lettuce and cucumber, tender shrimp and pork, and soft cool vermicelli noodles. A rich peanut sauce on the side is perfect for dipping. This was also the first time I tried the restaurant's Pho. Hot and flavorful beef broth was filled with soft savory noodles, tender chicken, crisp bean sprouts, scallions and jalapenos, and flavorful cilantro. I requested the chili oil for an additional kick. Overall, Dalat Town is my favorite spot for Vietnamese food in Lakeland and a must visit.

MK Boba is easily some of the best boba I've ever had. Mind you, I've tried a LOT of boba, and MK…read morejust still manages to stand out. They are a very small local business, so they freshly handmake all of their boba each week. It's the brown sugar kind and the pearls are always big, chewy and just that perfect soft texture. There's not a technical storefront for these guys, but they have a kitchen set up at Catapult Lakeland which is right along Lake Mirror downtown. I think you can visit them during the week? But I have not tried yet. They do set up shop at the Lakeland Farmers Market every Saturday and it's always a hit. They've even upgraded from having a tent stand to their own trailer/ food truck. So proud of the progress. If you follow them on Instagram, you'll also see MK Boba will do pop ups and mini partnerships with other specialty markets. Lakeland has makers markets and other things every few weeks and they'll be at those sometimes, and they even did a partner up with the Poor Porker in town where you could get boba and beignets in the same stop (it's an unlikely but magical duo). Beyond their incredible tapioca boba, the drink flavors MK Boba sells are just so phenomenal. The dirty horchata is a fan favorite, and they also make a strawberry purée that is just delightful mixed with the horchata or matcha. They've started some other specialty flavors as well, like colorful fruity teas and butterfly pea drinks. These guys are just the best, and I'm so proud and happy that they claim Lakeland as their home turf. Their service is always so friendly even though they're quite busy every time they set up, and they deserve all the rewards for how hard they work. Love some MK boba!!

The Spring Rolls had a flakey and crisp shell filled with crunchy noodles, cabbage and carrots and were paired with a sweet and lightly spicy chili sauce. When the Chiang Mai Noodles came out, I was immediately hit by the aromatic curry. Soft savory noodles, tender chicken, sweet diced pineapple, crisp green onion and bean sprouts were covered in a creamy, flavorful, and lightly spicy yellow coconut curry. Overall, Savory Thai is a quality spot for delicious and filling Thai food.

Depot 303 is still in the process of fully and officially opening but even now it's enjoyable and Lings seems to be doing well. I'm not sure how it'd be on a busier day, but we didn't have to wait super long for our food to be ready. Also, definitely try the hot chicken from there and beware of the spice level of the kimchi. They do also have noodle bowl options so I'll be back to try those in time.

The food combination of goat cheese toast with strawberry and basil was really really good! I got it with a gluten free bread since I am celiac and I feel good! The smoothie was really nice, refreshing, and filling. Personally needed a bit more taste of something but honestly cannot complain, it was very good. The ambiance is home style with a bit of a natural twist. The only thing that sent me over the edge is the sound the door makes when it opens/closes. It's just startling. Overall, I liked the place. It seems just a tad bit higher prices but with this economy, so is everything. Safe to say I will be returning!
