Would I drive an hour out just for salt bread? Yes…read more I love salt bread so much even before it was trending lol had it in Korea and it was unforgettable. This place did it pretty well. The truffle flavor was my favorite and I do like that their salt breads were very buttery. I did try other flavors like injeolmi, cheese, and cream too but didn't like them as much. The cheese one wasn't too cheesy enough and cheese was a bit too hardened. I took 6 truffle salt breads back home as souvenirs for my siblings (but mostly myself). It was quick and easy to put in our orders. Service was fast. Small space inside and simple decor, but still kinda cute.

This is a beautiful bakery decorated like a black and white sketch. I was worried it was just…read moregoing to be a gimmick. But the food is very good. We got the prosciutto sandwich, a cheese bread, a jamon sandwich, and a strawberry matcha. These were excellent. I really appreciated the bread and the dressing. The sandwiches were well constructed as well and didn't fall apart as you eat them. The service was nice. But expect to use a kiosk. Great experience. I will return and bring friends.

This is THE place to go to for all things underrated. Forget about popular places like Daiso and…read moreMiniso for the little things or collectible figures. Teso Life is the best place to find a great variety of cute collectibles, beauty products, snacks and more! This is a review long overdue; I've been to Teso many times before, with my first few times way back when it first opened and they had photos of the store thiefs printed and posted on their front door (it always gave me a chuckle, but I think for legality purposes they had to take those photos down RIP). Ironically it was because of those photos that caught my interest to check out Teso, because it was reminiscent of the kind of public shaming behavior I'd see within Asian communities haha. I enjoy treating myself in Teso when I can; they have a huge selection of Chinese Lays, Japanese gummies, childhood favorites like Calbee and Meiji. Huge selection of drinks too, and endless rows of beauty products ranging from hair styling, coloring, mascara, facial masks, etc all packaged in a very aesthetic layout, and you'd know anything you get is going to be good. I've gotten good quality home sandals here too, and enjoy the soft serve ice cream options in their refrigerated areas.

TESO Life has a huge selection of snacks, beauty products, home goods, toys, and unique items…read more There's so much variety that it's easy to get distracted and discover things you didn't know you wanted. At the checkout counter I was given a orange reusable TESO Life shopping bag featuring their cute monkey logo. It was a thoughtful touch and a souvenir from my visit. The only downside I noticed was the lack of staff available on the sales floor. If you're just browsing, that's not a big issue, but if you need help finding a specific item, it maybe difficult to get assistance since the only employees I saw during my visit were working at the cash registers. Overall, it's a fun store to explore, especially if you enjoy discovering unique items that are difficult to find anywhere else.

I love snow, bingsu, Hawaiian shaved ice, and anything like it. For anyone unfamiliar, these are…read moreall versions of frozen desserts based on flavored shaved ice. And they're all great. Wicked snow is my favorite so far in the area. The snow was so fluffy. Flavor was consistent throughout. Many different interesting options, including the one I went for- Dubai Chocolate - which I found to have very similar flavors to chocolates of the same name (pistachio/chocolate). Will definitely be back. Snow/shaved ice desserts are a must try if you have never (I can't believe I had not until wayyy into my adult life), and wicked snow has some of the best I've tried so far.

We were in the area and I found this place when searching desserts ( so glad I did )…read more If you love bingsu, this is the spot . I got the wicked mango and my husband got the cinnamon toast croffle . Both were SOOO good . The tables were a bit dirty, but the place gets busy and we came within an hour of them closing so I guess it's to be expected . Either way, we would definitely come back .

Chicha San Chen is the place you go to when you want reliably good tea and good boba, hands down…read more Other places in DFW have off days, but in the times I've gone to Chicha San Chen, they've always had a high quality product. The interior is large, and there's seating avaliable indoors and outdoors. But in this Texas heat, the outdoor seating is unbearable. The staff are pretty knowledgeable about their products and can explain their menu. They run an efficient system behind the counter, so my drink is usually no more than a 5 minute wait.

This is tucked into a plaza in Carrollton with various drink options, a Photo Booth store, claw…read moremachine location, and a doughnut shop amongst other things. However, it's prominent because what they do well is quality, tasty tea. I went in with high recommendations for the location from friends, and they met my expectations wholeheartedly. The girl working the counter was free to answer my questions. I would like to note that customization isn't really an option here, I tried to get the honey oolong tea with fruit added in, and she told me they couldn't do that which is perfectly fine just something to be aware of! The inside is very artful, it's fun to look at with the large centerpiece in the middle of the café, and there's ample seating to sit and chat with friends or get task done. I really love the packaging of the product and being able to carry my drink by the handle they provide. My beverage was ordered with no ice, and filled to the top which if you ordered a drink without ice before you know that isn't always common so I was really glad when I received it! I had a good time, and service was quick. I was in there no more than 10 minutes from ordering to receiving my drink.
