Good Tea

To seattlities: There's a new bubble tea place in Capitol Hill (at least, it looks new) called Shinka Tea. It's got excellent bubble teas and pastries and such, a nice atmosphere, free internet (natch), and so on. I'm also often the only person in the store. So consider this a recommendation. It's on the corner of Harvard and Olive way.

I recommend the black milk tea w/ tapioca.

If you like maccha (Ben doesn't), the maccha drinks are good, too.

Wait -- are you in Seattle right now? I am.

I love Shinka! The one in Capitol Hill is new (at least, to me), but the one in the University District was one of the first cool hang-out spots that David, Jesse, and I discovered when we first moved here. In the non-tea category, the Cocoa Diablo is also awesome.

In Chinatown, Oasis on King St. has the best boba. On the other hand, it's kinda hole-in-the-wall-ey in terms of hang out spot. But, you can get tart green mango drinks in the summer!
