I was walking through Shaughnessy Village, and I was inticed by a sign that advertised “handmade strawberry bubble tea made with love”. I love a good boba tea, and tapioca in general. This one came at at premium price, but the highest price was paid by this poor employee at Xing Fu Tang. It looked like there was supposed to be a machine that made them once the dough was introduced. Unfortunately, only one of the steps worked without aid. The “tapioca dough” was sliced into strips. The second step, taking the strips and rolling them into small balls, instead of being automatic, required patient attention by the handler.
I am not sure how much love he had put in it, but quite a lot of patience went in, I am sure!
It was a dessert, to be sure. Like a strawberry yogurt with tapioca. Yum!
