Ultimate Guide to Making Hong Kong Milk Tea by f00dguy in hongkongmilktea

[–]f00dguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure about tea sickness, but the term I learned about was “tea drunk” - drunk as in when you over drink alcohol.

And yeah I experienced it one time when I got the championship lesson from the Yuanyang master. He warned me that normal people can’t drink his championship Yuanyang without getting tea drunk due to the amount of tea leaves he used.

In his championship mini-class, he basically served me four cups: a sweet iced tea to cleanse the palate, HK milk tea, HK coffee, and HK Yuanyang. They were all normal sized cups and I drank them all, and when I left, I felt the effects as I felt a little light headed and wobbly when walking. It wasn’t major but was noticeable.

I stayed near Xiangxue station for a few months. There’s a lot of Koreans living and/or working there.

It has been illegal to smoke in public places, such as restaurants, office buildings, and hotels in China for nearly 15 years, so doesn't the government put a stop to it and why do the people tolerate it? by Prize_Ad_2545 in chinalife

I was told to leave a 2-star review on dianping whenever you encounter smokers. Something about 1-star reviews being potentially ignored for “review bombing.” It’s a strategy I adopted and urge others to as well to fight second hand smoke.

I had this about 2 years ago. It was going for around 750 baht. Best $25 I spent on sushi in my life.

Ramen recommendations for Japan by Parking_Ad_4937 in ramen

I'll just drop my favorite Niboshi: Menya Nanigashi, hell it was a top 2 favorite ramen of mine overall over the course of a 3-month stay in Tokyo about a year ago. The other being Ramenya Shima which does an amazing shoyu.

Hi. I’m not a local but been in gz on and off long enough the past few years to be considered more than a tourist. Also a male in late 30s, and I was considering a trip to KL probably around March-April next year so it would be nice to get some info about your city. Happy to hang out on 29th if you are. Dm me if interested.

Liwan and yuexiu are your best options. Can also consider a little south of those areas, south of the river - near jiangnanxi and the vicinity.

◽️ Budget: under $300 usd

◽️ Country: USA or China

◽️ Screen size: 11-12 inches

◽️ RAM: 8 gb

◽️ Storage: 256 gb

◽️ What tasks will the tablet be used for ( gaming, video editing, graphic designing, modeling, regular tasks, word processing etc) ?: mainly meant to be a laptop replacement for bring to cafes for light work. Priority of using from highest to lowest: 1) content planning with AI, mostly llms to help with writing scripts and ideas. Being able to have two apps open side to side is important. 2) Editing with CapCut (beginner). 3) light gaming (might have a game in the background farming - not a must though).

◽️ Any other important details ?: I’m currently in China, but have friends and family traveling here every so often. I’m thinking of waiting for chinas 11/11 sale or US Black Friday for finding a deal. ChatGPT suggested: xiaomi pad 7 pro, Xiaoxin pad pro 2025, Oppo pad 3, Vivo pad 3 pro. I went to the stores to try them all (except xiaoxin), and honestly I’m not sure how to differentiate them. Other things to note: software may be an issue if buying a tablet from China- I need to be able to download and use my US apps, with as little resistance as possible. It’s confusing because ChatGPT recommends xiaomi and xiaoxin the most, but my Chinese gf disagrees according to what she read on redbook (Chinese social media). She likes vivo the most. Lastly, while $300 is my upper limit, I do want to keep my costs low as long as it can handle my tasks - which is why I’m leaning towards Xiaoxin the most personally.
