<p>So I was just browsing the UCI forums and came across the integral subject of boba (tea), the sweet, addicting Asian’ish drinks.</p>
<p>I need to know if there are any tea shops close to UCSD, and if so, I will NEED directions! 
My friend’s uncle has a tea shop in Escondido, but that is way too far away for just a drink.</p>
<p>This is not a joke. If any of you haven’t ever tried it, please do. Now.</p>
<p>Take the 34 bus - it takes you in front of tapioca express. Also, there's a new thai restraunt opening up on campus; its branches in LA have boba, so im expecting the on campus branch to as well.</p>
<p>Sounds awesome. Thanks for the help.</p>
<p>What LA branches are there? The Boat? Banana Bay? Those seem to be the two largest Thai places I know in the greater Asian/Los Angeles area.</p>
<p>'Hi Thai' - at least googling it, I get some mention of Boba.</p>
<p>"Hi Thai Noodle is a great place to stop before a movie or show in Hollywood. Super-clean shiny new booths, **cheap boba drinks, lots of stir-fried noodles and soups, and an amazing fruity green chili sort of Thai salsa thing that electrifies any dish. Cheap, too."</p>
<p><333333</p>
<p>The thing I liked the most about that quote was the word "cheap."
And I'm so glad there's gonna be Thai food around. GOOD stuff. :D</p>
<p>Heck yeah. There's also a PF Changs close around. Now, I need to find some place for Sushi or Pho :{</p>
<p>If they don't have good sushi around our campus...I'll be very...very sad...</p>
<p>There's a Ginza Sushi in Price Center.</p>
<p>Karth, is it any good? I might make it my staple food outside of dining halls.</p>
<p>I have no idea, I'm a vegetarian ;). It's pretty crowded, though, so if that's any indication...</p>
<p>That's awesome. I had a vegetarian phase. It was easy because I already eat a lot of tofu. I quit because I missed flavor, in general.</p>
<p>i prefer jamba juiceeee! is there a jamba juice INSIDE ucsd? or only a starbucks?</p>
<p>Oyama, indian food can be vegetarian and has too much flavor for many people. Same goes for thai ;).</p>
<p>pham, there's a jamba juice in price center, below ginza sushi. they take meal points.</p>
<p>there is also a sushi place about 3 miles from campus by trader joes? i went that the night before admit day. their prestation is superb! one of the chefs had a flame torch! ...and most importantly...it's pretty cheap.</p>
<p>The price center takes meal points, too? I'm going to be at Del Taco and Jamba Juice a lot, too, then ;_;</p>
<p>@ vii: oh MAN...that definitely sounds like my kinda place. :]</p>
<p>No, I don't think the price center takes meal points. Is this true?</p>
<p>^^ we should eat out at all the cool/exotic sd places. i like japanese, thai, persian, etc..</p>
<p>Dang. Persian! I know some Farce so I can speak to waiters and stuff (assuming they're actually Persian)</p>
