The IN thing - GongCha











GongCha
Chinese: 貢茶
Pin Yin: Gong4 Cha2
Common misconception in pronouncing: Gong3 Cha2

What I like about it: 

1. THE famous Earl Grey Milk Tea
-some like to drink it with pudding/3Js etc.
-you should try it plain, 50%sugar. veryyyy refreshingly nice.

 2. Two outlets has opened up in my area (HELL YEAH)
-there's one right outside bukit batok mrt station
-there's one in B1 of Lot One Shopping Mall (CCK)
-i live in between the 2 mrt stations &my school is near cck ;)

3. They have a lot of variety!
-House Special
-Brewed Tea
-Juice
-Creative Mix
-Coffee
-Milk Tea
-Health Tea

4. The price for a bubble tea is reasonable compared to KOI.
-prices range from $2.20 - $3.90, depending on what you order.


My All Time Fav, Earl Grey Milk Tea!!
My first time trying it was when i ordered it with pudding and 70% sugar level.
It was nice, but too sweet for my liking.
FYI, when it's too sweet, you drink a few sips and stop drinking, you'll feel like your throat or something will be uncomfortably dry.
The earl grey milk tea was nice, i could tell. But every few sips of my drink, i had to chew on the pudding thing and (it's not like it's not nice, it IS nice) it's just kind of zhor deng. I couldn't exactly savour my EG milk tea properly!!
Then the second time i ordered 50% sugar level with pudding.
Much better.
The third time, i found my fav combi.
Simplicity at its best - Earl Grey Milk Tea 50% sugar level.
It's different from any normal milk tea you find on the streets e.g Sweet Talk/opened at market.
The amount of...... milkiness is just nice for me, not too milky, yet milky enough you can taste it in your mouth and it stays there for a few seconds.
And it's just so........ refreshing!!!!

I LIKE. FULLSTOP.


Ps. I'm not trying to advertise for gongcha or whatsoever (they didn't pay me i wished they did hahaha :( ) This is just a personal opinion!


sluuuuuuuuuuuurp!
