the outside and taiwanese sausage fried rice
At first I had no idea what this place was called. I thought it was just called tea shop but I looked it up and apparently it's called Stop & Seat. Right beside Asian Legend on Yonge St. by North York Centre, Stop and Seat serves bubble tea and other taiwanese and chinese food.
Having walked past this time many times before what got my attention this time was a big sign that said "5th Anniversary Special $1.99" (takeout only). If you've read my earlier posts, you know there are a few things I love, japanese curry pork rice,fat chicks, and cheap bubble tea. So when I saw bubble tea for $1.99, I was all over that like free samples at Costco.
Figuring this was a taiwanese place, I thought I'd get the popcorn chicken but after searching the menu for a few minutes and not finding it I gave up and got a taiwanese sausage fried rice off the lunch menu instead (see it here and here). On the lunch menu there are around 30 different choices all for $5.99 with a free black/green tea. With the lunch special I also got a taro milk green tea which cost an extra $1.50.
The taiwanese sausage fried rice was only ok. They give pretty good amount of fried rice but if the pieces of sausage weren't as good as they were I would have said it was pretty bad. Still nothing special though and I've certainly had better taiwanese sausage fried rice elsewhere. The bubble tea however was actually pretty good especially considering the price. Not poorer quality in any way (Fruitti Mix...), it tasted just as good as the Tea Shop 168 across the street except it's waay cheaper.
I went back later in the week just to get a black milk tea and learned that the $1.99 doesn't include tapioca and to get some costs an extra 50 cents. So actually it's $2.50 + tax bubble tea, not as cheap as I thought but still by far the cheapest bubble tea in the area. I don't know if this is a temporary promotion or not, just for their 5th anniversary, but know I'm going to be going here alot for the rest of the summer while I work at North York Centre.
