Toki Bubble Tea - Korean Street Food Bar — Restaurant in Aalst

I went here little over a year ago, got a taro milk bubble tea with tapioca and it was amazing.

Sadly today I really didn't enjoy my drink. I Ordered the same (except for the tapioca which they were out of, but that happens)

The level of sweetness/sugar was just insane. Even for me, while usually at most bubble tea shops I ask for extra sugar to be able to enjoy my drink. This was by far at least twice as sweet as a usual bubble tea with extra sugar. You couldn't taste tea or taro anymore.

I see below other people complained of this and it being adressed as each person having different taste, which is true, but maybe the standard should just be a regular amount of sugar and not an overload that makes it feel like you're only drinking liquid sugar. Or perhaps a sign to note that the standard is extremely sweet.

Aside of that, and I genuinely don't know why, it tasted chocolate /mocha like. I wondered if possibly the brown liquid I thought caramel or brown sugar had an additional flavour, whether they accidently put chocolate in, or it just created a weird mix with the taro (which again I could not even taste).

Sadly I ended up throwing it away after drinking half.

Idk if this was just bad luck but the difference between the one I got over a year ago is appalling.

Edit: I think the shops response was quite professional, and I defenitely would have returned if I wasn't too far away yet (I took it for drinking in the car on the way home) I usually do leave positive reviews when I think it's well deserved but only after visiting a couple times to see the consistency. I will give it another shot and not ask for the brown sugar to decorate. I do think that was what made it overly sweet and change the taste, they did ask if I wanted whipped cream maybe it's good to ask if people want the extra...

Op vraag van onze dochter zijn we gisteren na schooltijd langs geweest bij TOKI in de Pieter van Aelst passage, 4 weken geleden waren we daar ook om een drankje ( Bubble Tea ) en hapje te genieten, toen ik vroeg om de QR-code te kunnen inscannen met mijn Joyn-app zei de vriendelijke jonge dame dat de tablet even buiten gebruik was en stelde voor om de punten op een briefje te noteren. Nu ruim 4 weken later ( gisteren ) ga ik binnen met mijn gezin en bij het afrekenen krijg ik dezelfde boodschap te horen. Toen ik mijn briefje aanbood met de punten van voordien, werd de jonge dame ongemakkelijk. Het kan toch niet zo zijn, dat als men met een getrouwheids-systeem werkt, klanten gedurende een ganse maand geen punten kunnen sparen. Bij 100 punten, heb je 100 euro gespendeerd en krijg je een drankje t.w.v. 5,00 euro, bij 160 punten, heb je 160 euro gespendeerd en krijg je een Medium Box t.w.v. 8,00 euro, ter info : het lijkt me fair om te zeggen, dat dezelfde jonge dame, ik weet niet of zij de uitbaatster is of gewoon iemand die daar in dienst is, mijn 31 punten van gisteren heeft bijgeschreven op het briefje van vorige keer, waar al 21 punten op stonden. Of ik er ooit nog terugkom zal afhangen van hun reactie en hun...

We drove from Brussels to Aalts just to try their bubble teas and hotdogs, unfortunately they had no hotdog.

It was a super small, cute shop with hard working employee

I ordered Taiwanese milk tea and it was more like caramel and milk. Extremely sugary and you can not even taste the milk.

Same goes for my friend’s order, it was watermelon flavor so sweet to begin with but bro you should...
