My family and I use to go to Diamond Bar every weekend until we rented out our condo. Anyways, when Dang and I went up to visit Phil and Lois in LA, he took us to the most amazing boba place. I've heard about this place before, but I never thought to look it up. I'm am super sad that I didn't discover it earlier because I could have enjoyed my boba cup many many times by now.
Half & Half (4.5 of 5 stars)

Company: Dang, Phil, Lois
Time: Friday, August 12, 10:00 pm

Located at the side of a plaza with a decent size parking lot. A little scary (looks like an alley) since we went at night.

Type of food: Tea drinks and snacks
Ambiance:
A small and cozy cafe. It is very Asian with lots of Asian characters and snacks as decorations. They also have random things for you to take pictures with.

Service:
Only one cashier to take orders. She seemed a little annoyed and I felt like she was rushing us to order. Well I guess it is understandable, must be boring and repetitive to push button and take orders all day.
We paid, got a number and waited for our drink. Luckily the order came out in less than 5 minutes.

Taste:
So delicious. I especially loved the egg pudding- it was soft and creamy.

Price:
My regular size lychee green tea with egg pudding and honey boba cost $4.19. For $1 more, you can get the super size version. Yes, the super size is quite huge.

Overall:
I think what really got me was the shape of the cup. I can't help saying how cute it was. However, I really wonder if it is the same volume as a regular boba cup. It is definitely not a convenient size since it will not fit in the car's cup holder.
I've been reading negative reviews on Yelp. People say it is over-hyped and that the wait is ridiculously long. Fortunately, for me I didn't have to wait that long. And I think it is definitely a unique find.
Also, I wonder why they call themselves Half&Half. I thought it was because they used the creamy and rich half&half milk. But I think it is just the name.
Overall, I love Half&Half and everyone must go check it out and take me with you!
Until next time because I'll find an excuse to drive all the way to Rowland Heights.
