Mr Teh Tarik Cartel @ Far East Square

After hearing much hype about "Mr Teh Tarik" the push cart that opened up into "Mr Teh Tarik Cartel" the store, we decided to head down for a taste that would hopefully satisfy Teh Tarik anal Mustard Sally.



Teh Tarik 80 cents

Chilli Padi says: Good aroma. Sweet with bitter aftertaste.
3 / 5

Mustard Sally says: Not foamy, perhaps because they didn't execute a full-arm tarik. Though there was no kick, it was smooth on the tongue and easy to chug down. Could be sweeter and creamier. Decent tea taste though.
3 / 5



Mustard Sally had Ice Teh Cino $1.40

Chilli Padi says: Too milky

Mustard Sally says: Dull. Sugar Sweet but not condense milk sweet and creamy enough for me. Didn't finish.
2.5 / 5



Chilli Padi had Ice Milo Dino $1.90

Chilli Padi says: Too much ice, diluted. Not unexpected since taller cups are harder to gage. They should have stirred in the ice properly before putting the Milo powder on top. Only liked the Milo powder on top. Didn't want to da bao over half-filled cup.
2.25 / 5

Mustard Sally says: I make better Milo Dinos.



Though the plastic cups were Starbucks-cool and good for take-aways, it KILLED the old skool feel. And it was mighty hard to stir sunken condense milk or Milo powder to a smooth consistency in our traditionally "smooth textured" drinks.

SOOO... sorry guys we've had better. Expansions are sometimes a downfall, and in this case the theory proves right. It was 2 relatively young men making our drinks so possibly it wasn't Mr Teh Tarik himself ):
