The best thing about bubble cup tea is getting the black balls that are inside the tea and shooting them out with a massive plastic straw. Under Melbourne's comic book haven you'll find a techno-colored bubble tea wonderland that Alice herself doesn't even know exists.
The snacks aren't as good as the décor, but still when you have egg dipped in soy sauce you have to think to yourself, "Where the fuck am I?" There's stuff like bubble tea, ice tea, and hot ice blends, don't ask me how that works. They also offer many over-priced foods; for example, chips. A large bowl is like a little ashtray filled with bread crumbs.
Let's not forget the entertainment, which is actually enjoyable. Two-dollar internet, Chinese Channel V and a shelf filled with Manga. Unfortunately it is not translated, but you can easily walk a small flight of stairs to Comics ‘R Us and ask the awesome staff what's new in the Marvel or DC universe and you will have an hour's conversation. I hope to see you there, reading comics and firing bubble tea balls from your mouth in all directions.
