This store has been here at least as long as Taiko next door. I've gone to Taiko since I was a kid, and I remember Champion, so these 2 seem to be side-by-side forever partners!
There's really only 1 thing I get from Champion and it's the traditional shaved ice.
This is the CLASSIC Taiwanese shaved ice and they offer it at $5.50 flat.
Here are the options:
- Lychee
- Rice Balls
- Barley
- Grass Jelly
- Almond Jelly
- Pudding
- Red Bean
- Pineapple
- Mung Bean
And then you can top it with the classic condensed milk or other flavors.
I LOVE the pink and white rice balls. They tend to sell out of them if you go at night so go in the daytime! Or better yet, call ahead if you love rice balls as much as I do.
Out of all the servers, I like the "mom" server the best. I like her style of putting ice in the container, and then putting condensed milk BEFORE the toppings. That's very important!! Otherwise, the "dad" server tends to douse the toppings with condensed milk and it gets overly sweet and you lose the taste of individual toppings.
Can't go wrong with the rice balls, lychee, grass jelly and barley!
I've also had their regular boba milk tea here too and it has a nice strong taste. They even have other taiwanese snacks (like tea eggs, jerky, dumplings etc) and a large menu of drinks.
Give this mom & pop place some love!
