First, I ordered a foam tea drink with half the usual sugar, but it was so sweet that I ended up adding my own unsweetened tea to it. Then, as I tried to put the lid back on, the flimsy cup collapsed, causing everything to spill all over my work desk. I spent 25 minutes cleaning up the mess, wiping down my carpet, computer, desk, and notes. Unfortunately, the spilled tea even contaminated the food I had purchased there, forcing me to throw it away. It was a total waste of time and money.

I ordered the Formosa sausage, and it was such a waste of money spending almost $12 for both crappy items. The Formosa sausage was so dry and tasted like plastic, as if it was recooked a few times. It looked really shiny and just hard. It also took a lot longer than other orders for some reason. The matcha latte tasted horrible; pretty sure I've had matcha latte here without milk tea, and just the matcha and milk, but not being a fan of milk tea, this drink was a dump. This entire experience was horrible, and if I had never been to another TapEx location, I would never return.
