Oh hi!

So this post is mainly about food. To be honest, I was going to post more about one thing...but it turns out I have more recent photos of food than anything else! Of course, photos are of some of my top favorite foods

Boba

Asha Tea House

A quaint little place in Berkeley. The tea house has this lofty industrial warehouse look. Boba here is actually pretty good compared to the others I have had in NorCal (and this is closer too!). A lot of students come here to study and lounge, so it has a nice quiet/lounge ambiance.

Korean BBQ

Jong Ga House

Korean bbq in LA is amazing: low price + all-you-can-eat. When I say low price, I am talking about $10/person for dinner, and you can eat all the meat you want. Up here in NorCal, I have not found a place with that kind of pricing yet, however, this one place had pretty good ratings so Obiwon, Stef, Williana, and I decided to swoop in. $20/person.

Server/waiter was super enthusiastic! He brought good energy to the table and kept us entertained. The selection was good, and service was great. If you plan on going, be sure to call in for a reservation because the queue at the door is LONG!

Food Trucks

Treasure Island Flea Market

One of the things I look forward to at the end of the month! Every month, Treasure Island has a flea market with local shops posting their goods for sale. A lot of homemade and vintage items can be found here, and at good variety and price!

A bonus to this is that a string of food trucks are always available for those who are hungry! In front of the trucks is a nice space of grass for people to lounge and eat. Often there would be live bands/artists playing their music for everyone. Very relaxing!

We were fortunate enough to go on a beautiful day! We were able to get a nice view of the city and the weather was very promising, with exception to the insane winds.

High Tea

Crown & Crumpet

All four of us went to to Japantown to have high tea. Though Crown & Crumpet is more like a pit-stop version of high tea, it is quite good. If you do not have the time for high tea, try going to Crown & Crumpet. Nothing is rushed, but it does not have the ambiance to make you linger THAT long. Why? Because it is located in Peace Plaza, with shops like MARUQ (carrys Aymmy, Liz Lisa, Tralala, etc.) and Baby, the Stars Shine Bright.

Aside from some foods, I have been trying to get a green thumb. More greenery calms a person, so I have been potting some things for the apartment.

Hope everyone's weekend has been just as pleasant!
