Comments
Don't forget to try One of A Kind Teahouse on Central! And thank you for writing about it! I read your article about bubble tea and had to give it a shot. Wierd, but yum! The food was also good, and the prices were reasonable. I could do without the big screen TV, but I'm sure others will enjoy it. I must say, the service was astoundingly friendly and helpful. I hope this place stays around.
