When the amount of accumulated weekly visuals is trending in an upwards manner, the only feasible solution to prevent an excessively long monthly visuals post from surfacing is to post a portion of those photos first.
Thus, I present to you a partial visuals roundup!
1. Green Tea Chai Latte from Le Gourmand
As opposed to regular chai lattes, this very foamy (and not-too-spicy) variation is steamed using a pre-made powder mix supposedly containing green tea. Definitely more milky than sweet, the drink was ideal for warming up on a chilly afternoon. I also noticed several reviewers had highly recommended the Chocolate Chip Cookie, so I suppose I'll attempt a gooey, sugary baked good on my next visit to evaluate whether it really does live up to the hype.

6. Turkey Breast Waffle takeout + Green Tea Latte (not pictured) from N9 Cafe
7. Customized Bowl + Thai Iced Tea from Basil Box
Had it not been for my hour-and-a-half delay, I likely would have returned home for dinner. But as luck would have it, I found myself staring at a food court bursting with supper options. Basil Box was a restaurant/stall that particularly stood out to me, especially since I had glanced through numerous positive experiences with their completely customizeable meal option.
The theory is simple: a step-by-step process is used to guide the diner through the available base, topping, and sauce options.
Step 1 consisted of choices of white rice, rice noodles, brown rice, and salad greens.
Steps 2 and 3 were comprised of vegetable and meat topping options, ranging from diced roasted sweet potato to chopped peppers and corn kernels.
Steps 4 and 5 involved adding the finishing touches: mild or spicy sauce(s) and chopped peanuts if desired.

Combo options were not available, but I decided to order a Thai Iced Tea anyways, seeing that the cup I had tried previously did not disappoint.
And it didn't. Quite frankly, neither items did.
The box was undeniably the most satisfying meal I've purchased from a food court, and the Thai Iced Tea only elevated the experience to even greater heights. Hidden within the colourful layers were bursts of flavour and absolute scrumptiousness.

Increasing the levels of customization allow for the most personal approach to customer service, and I must say: Basil Box has nailed this business concept perfectly.
