Twinkle2 Cafe
Monday, April 20, 2009 by Bubble Tea Reviews
Address: Alexandra Road, Richmond, BC
Payment Options: Cash Only
The drinks selection at Twinkle2 is excellent. The menu is filled with intriguing choices like "Shrek" and "Sneezy". Since some of the menu items are quite vague, it's good to know that the servers are willing to answer any questions regarding the menu.
Ambiance [rating:4]
The modern and elegant small cafe restaurant can seat about 50 people comfortably, not to be confused by their other location (Twinkle 1) which is much smaller. There were quite a bit of people when we went so there was a good busy, bustling sound in the restaurant, something I prefer over ridiculously quiet places where you can hear every chew.
Drinks [rating:4.5]
Chocolate Oreo with Mango Star Jelly The chocolate oreo was delicious! Just the right amount of sweetness although I would prefer to have a lot more Oreo in my drink. But, its chocolatey goodness sure won me over. Might I suggest though that if you are planning to order this drink, do opt for the regular bubbles instead because the mango jelly (which flavor was picked for me by Twinkle2 staff) definitely did not mix all too well with the drink itself. Now, this was not Twinkle2's fault simply because I wanted to have their popular star jellies in my drink too so I wouldn't feel left out next to my friends. ;)
Service [rating:4.5]
Our waiter was very courteous and knowledgeable. He knew the drinks well when questioned about what a particular "mysterious" drink contains. The same goes for describing the food menu items they have available. Great job!

If you want to try something different other than the regular bubble tea places around your area, consider visiting this place instead. Their drinks menu would not disappoint your cravings. With that said, I would definitely go back to Twinkle2 again. I cannot wait to try the rest of their drinks and perhaps try a King Kong size too! Now I know why this is my cousin's favourite bubble tea place in Richmond.
