Easy Life Boba Tea
Strawberry Fluffy Snow with Mochi, Egg Pudding, and Condensed Milk
Caramel Milk Tea with Boba
Still sated despite the fact that dinner had ended nearly three hours prior but in a celebratory mood after The Kings Double-OT stunner in Game 2 of The Stanley Cup Finals it was largely a matter of convenience that led me to Easy Life Boba Tea, the small storefront a resident of my ‘to do’ list ever since a January visit to now-shuttered 9 on the Plate. Purportedly open until 10:00pm on Saturdays but seemingly abandoned with chairs atop tables on my arrival it was not until I hollered “Hello” that a small woman emerged from the back and although quick to explain in a deterrent tone that orders after 9:30 were only offered to go I not only persisted but also doubled down, a yelp check-in shaving 50% off my second item with a total tally of $8.54 for an order taken curbside to enjoy. Admittedly a novice but happy to experiment at such a low cost it was with sips of Easy Life’s caramel flavored milk tea that my tasting began and with pearls of boba channeling up the thick straw amidst creamy liquid only modestly sweet I was modestly surprised, an opinion even more befitting a container of summer-fresh fluffy snow far lighter than that at Snowflake Shavery finding textural counterpoints in dense egg custard, whimsical mochi, and a light drizzle of condensed milk…the only bad taste of the evening delivered as I walked back to my car only to see a group of four Asian twenty-somethings seated at a table inside eating fluffy snow with the same young server who’d just sent me to the streets.
RECOMMENDED: The Strawberry Fluffy Ice is quite good and very light.
AVOID: Arriving after 9:30pm, apparently…or perhaps something else I’ll not touch on here.
TIP: Yelp users save 50% on their second item, check-in and take advantage.
