Well opps, I just said 11pm xD

The food was great and wasn't a bad meet. Hope to do this again with a much bigger crowd next year;D

So if you guys haven't figured out by now, I never showed up... I took a few laps around the block looking for a parking spot, couldn't find one. By this time, the place was totally mobbed, and I suddenly felt like I didn't want to be there (too many people) so I said "Screw you guys, I'm goin home!" And I did.

Just for next time, let's have this someplace else... like not in the city. After today I realized that I absolutely HATE the city and would very much like to avoid going there at all costs.

I drove around looking for parking for like 30 minutes...bubble tea = EPIC

So Chicago still has you beat eh?

alaricljs · « **Reply #161 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 16:07:01 »

Hmm, took me 5 minutes to find parking... just gotta be willing to walk 1.5 blocks.

Damned tolls cost me more than lunch and the food was really quite nice.

ChaoticKinesis · « **Reply #162 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 16:12:31 »

Subway = no parking. MTA FTW (ugh...can't believe I just wrote that)!

alaricljs · « **Reply #163 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 16:16:55 »

Taking the train+sub would have cost me more on tix than I spent on tolls/gas. Still would even if I paid for parking.

boost · « **Reply #164 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 16:34:09 »

Man, I really like that bubble tea ^_^

Thai iced tea w/ boba is the ****

metalliqaz · « **Reply #167 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 16:55:08 »

Ya, never drive right into the city. I always park well outside and take the MTA.

thegunner100 · « **Reply #168 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 19:23:21 »

Haha yeah the restaurant is always like that on sundays, except maybe when there's bad weather. I'm glad you guys enjoyed the food! It's the least I could do, since I don't have anything remotely rare. Hopefully we get more people next year though!

You guys got bubble tea after I left?! I missed out, where did you guys go?

metalliqaz · « **Reply #169 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 19:34:42 »

Hmm? never heard of so called "bubble tea"

* metalliqaz googles

Whaaaa?? I want one!

I don't even know were we got it from but it was few blocks away

Downrezzed individual board pics. I must say, I do like the heft of the aluminum boards.

ekw808 · « **Reply #172 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 19:47:09 »

Boost, I got you a taro milk tea with boba. It was at that supermarket Fei Long? they have a few snack shops along the side, we ended up just going to that foodcourt for a little bit.

metalliqaz · « **Reply #173 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 19:48:46 »

Nice shots, thanks! Kinda wish I had time to trek into the city.

Gotta remember to check that out the next time I go there. The 1.5hr train ride scares me though, I have no idea how my dad does it 6 days a week.

The food was awesome, thanks for organizing it there Gunner. BTW were we actually paying full price or discounted? Because it was really cheap.

The bubble tea place was called TBaar. I got coffee bubble tea, which was delicious.

thegunner100 · « **Reply #178 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 20:29:51 »

I have no idea if that was full price or discounted, i'd have to ask my dad about that. One reason why it wasn't expensive was because we didn't order anything other than dim sum.

I've had Dim Sum in Chinatown and let's just say the bill looked a little different. Probably paid about triple what I did today and that was some years ago too.

I didn't realize how sick the titanium cases were til i tried them today. We seriously need to find someone who can make a good titanium realforce 87 case!

demik · « **Reply #182 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 22:02:04 »

they aren't titanium o.O

aluminum cases

thegunner100 · « **Reply #183 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 22:03:28 »

erm... whoops! Titanium would be sick too xD

metalliqaz · « **Reply #184 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 22:16:09 »

and the cost would MAKE you sick

thegunner100 · « **Reply #185 on:** Sun, 14 October 2012, 22:19:24 »

It would... considering the costs for the ones that are currently on ebay right now.

Agreed. We're already planning the next one, aren't we? =)

Lanx · « **Reply #191 on:** Thu, 18 October 2012, 14:30:57 »

east harbor has good dimsum, is probably 10-20% more than some places in chinatown, but we're talking 1.50 per dish versus 1.75, east harbor also has valet parking righ the left of the restaurant, just pay the guy a dollar or 2, tho whenever i'm in nyc and friends want to do dim sum, i meet with them at 10am to avoid the mega zerg.

I walked by two other bubble tea shops from the same company on the other side of the bridge. It must be somewhat a popular drink.
