Taipei's BEST 愛玉! (An addict's confession)

Dude! I love 愛玉!! Ever since the first time I ate it the quest to find the ultimate 愛玉 has been the only thing my life revolves around. Lemony...wobbly....sweet...tangy. The tingly sensation you get when you suck the soft jelly out of the straw...or scoop it out of a bowl with a spoon. I can't stop eating it. I have become an addict. Whenever I eat 愛玉 all I can think about is where the next 愛玉 is gonna come from. I can't sleep. I can't think. I have started to neglect my family. I have got to stop. I have got to put an end to this insanity....

...BUT FIRST...
Let me tell you where you can get the BEST 愛玉 in town!

青蛙 (Down the audio and video street)                         

Less like the good old-fashioned
愛玉 and more similar to your usually lemon juice...just will jelly. Good-tasting? Definitely. A nice tangy sour-sweet flavour. You can even get it with 珍珠, which is nice and chewy...not hard and bland like some other types.

Customers ready to indulge in 愛玉 heaven












                                                                                                                                 

哇!青蛙下蛋(Zhonghua Road/Near XiMenDing)
Even the clothes dummy wants some
Can you see it? It's the sign with the frog.
Definitely (and forgive my dull use of adjectives) a very, very good-tasting brand. Just like your old grandmother makes it. You really get the urge to scoop out the spoon from the  愛玉 man's bowl and just start pouring 愛玉 into all your pockets so you can bring it home with you. Sickly-sweet in the best way possible. Lemony, and the jelly is very pleasant and soft. Worth travelling around the world for.


SO WHICH ONE WINS???                                                                
哇!青蛙下蛋
You can't beat the good old classic-styled 愛玉! Why bother turn it into a multinational chain store hit? 愛玉 is made for the pleasure and excitement it provokes when you eat it...and 哇!青蛙下蛋 did this. Well...maybe I'm exaggerating. But damn....I LOVE 愛玉!!!!!!





 

No-one (including frogs) were harmed in the making of this 愛玉. Except for the reviewer who drank three cups of 愛玉 on the day of reviewing and that night was victim to an 愛玉 overdose.
