This time, I stopped by Gong Cha Ekimo Namba store and bought a black tea. I asked for less sweetness and ice. The tea flavor is a bit light, but the pearls have a strong chewy texture and are very delicious. The price is also not too high. Combining the tea and pearls, it costs 560 yen.

Banana meets Chai?! Purchased at Gong Cha in Namba Station's underground. It was a mysterious combination of banana and chai. The chai flavor is strong and sweet. It is recommended to mix it well before drinking.

"I wonder if the combination works well because they are both from the same tropical region." That's what I thought when trying the Mango Jasmine Green Tea Ade at Gong cha. Tea Ade is a type of soft drink made by diluting fruit juice and adding sweeteners, similar to the well-known Lemonade. While Tea Ade has been a staple menu item at Gong cha, I decided to try the limited edition Mango Jasmine Green Tea Ade. This drink combines the sweet aroma of jasmine with green tea and mango Ade. I have tried mango with black tea before, but this was my first time trying it with green tea, or rather, jasmine tea. Upon tasting it, I found that the elegant and sweet jasmine fragrance paired well with the strong flavor of mango. Those who enjoy floral scents and tropical fruits, especially women, may particularly enjoy this drink. Personally, I usually prefer unsweetened tea, but I recommend customizing this drink to be sweeter to fully experience the tropical fruit flavors (I actually ordered it sweeter this time and found it more enjoyable). The Mango Jasmine Green Tea is a limited edition item available until 3/31, along with the Peach Jasmine Green Tea Ade. Even if you don't typically drink jasmine tea, I recommend giving it a try.

I took a break as I had about an hour until my lunch reservation. It had been a while since I last visited this Gong Cha store. There was only one other customer besides me at this location. In places like Dotonbori and Ebisubashi-suji Shopping Street, there were not many people, apart from foreign tourists. I ordered Ali Shan Oolong Tea, iced, large size, zero sweetness, with ice, tapioca and aloe toppings, and milk foam.

I stopped by Gong Cha Tapiooca on a cold day to have a light meal, and besides tapioca, they also offer a set with porridge, which I heard was delicious. I ordered the Samgyetang set which comes with jasmine tea for 680 yen. They also have black sesame tantan and ginger tomato flavors. You can add tapioca to the jasmine tea for an additional fee. The Samgyetang was smaller in portion than I expected. It came in a small cup with chicken pieces and tasty rice, but I felt the portion was a bit small for me.

I had an image of tapioca drinks, but I realized that there are quite a variety of straight teas available. I tried a yellowish oolong tea, which had a slightly fruity taste and was refreshing and delicious.

I tried the Frozen Milk Tea with iyokan and mango at a restaurant. It was a limited-time offering with a beautiful color. It was refreshing, sweet, and had a nice iyokan and mango flavor. There were also jelly-like pieces that added to the overall deliciousness.

This time, I used it for tea time. I was undecided on what to order, but this time I ordered Black Sugar Milk Black Tea (M) + Pearls. The order was Black Sugar Milk Black Tea (M) + Pearls for 660 yen. Black Sugar Milk Black Tea + Pearls is a dish with tapioca in black sugar milk tea. The naming of Milk Black is unclear, but it had a rich and delicious taste. The shop has a clean and welcoming atmosphere, and the staff's customer service was polite. It is a tapioca drink shop located inside ekimo Namba.

This is good!

Adjusting the time before dinner. Blended coffee.

The food is delicious but the service is...
