Enough about fast food joints and their burgers, how about we switch our focus over to this Taiwanese joint that expedites in all things sandwiches?

This place does Australian brunch so good you don’t even need to travel to Australia, you just need to visit Routine by Soon when they open their doors and be prepared to be mind-blown. Are you guys ready?

11. Shake Shake

Perhaps the food scene has been a little overwhelming with all these special renditions made upon them but we can all agree that basic, simple may sometimes be what we opt for during a full-on busy schedule. If so, pay Shake Shake a visit for their pearl milk tea. Also, if you’re a person that pays attention to details, you’ll notice that the bear logo actually serves as friendly reminder for all to shake their drinks well before having their first sip (so that the pearls would blend well with the drink).

12. Tea Day

With choices like Mango and Oreo, Tea Day is one drink joint that we highly doubt anyone can afford to miss out on.
