Tun Tea House is a boba tea & treats spot in Weirton.



Boba tea—also known as bubble tea or pearl milk tea—is a sweet, flavored tea-based drink that originated in Taiwan in the 1980s. It’s known for its chewy tapioca pearls (called boba) that sit at the bottom of the cup and are sipped through an extra-wide straw that is stabbed through the top plastic seal.



Black tea: Bold, malty, slightly bitter—pairs well with milk and sweeteners. This is what I usually go for.

Green tea: Light, grassy, slightly floral—often used in fruit teas.



I ordered a Brown Sugar Milk Tea which has light black tea, milk, brown sugar syrup and tapioca pearls covered in brown sugar syrup. Rich, sweet, caramelized.

Opening in 1974, this Carey Hilliard was the first location on Savannah’s West Side located in Garden City. Situated under the shadow of the Savannah Port on the Savannah River, this location made it convenient for people working in the industrial area to grab some seafood or BBQ.



I went through the drive-thru and ordered Grilled Tail-On White Shrimp with Cheddar Bake (Twice Baked Potato), pasta salad and a pink lemonade ~these are a few of my favorite things ~



Not sure where else you can get this kind of variety, so A+ there. Execution probably a bit closer to a B. I like my pasta salad more zesty and fluffier hushpuppies. But that pile of cheddar potatoes was pretty on point.

When visiting London, one of the must-do experiences is visiting Stonehenge. So, this is one of the few times when food was not the main motivating factor for this visit.



Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument in England made of massive standing stones arranged in a circular layout, and it is important as one of the world’s most famous archaeological sites, believed to have served as a ceremonial or astronomical site for ancient peoples.



The Stonehenge café offers quick bites while visiting this UNESCO World Heritage site, including salads, sandwiches, soup and more.



I ordered a cheese & onion pasty. A pasty is a baked pastry filled with meat and vegetables, traditionally associated with Cornish miners, and it’s often considered a precursor to the pepperoni roll because both were designed as portable, hearty meals for laborers.



I also had a chocolate-caramel-biscuit layered bar and tried Brown Sauce, which is a condiment, typically dark brown, with a tart or sweet flavor and a peppery note, similar to Worcestershire sauce. While the food was decent, the site is amazing.

Shawarma Zone WV has entered the chat. I woke up today and saw this food truck all over my social feeds. It's almost like within the past 24 hours, everyone discovered it and they had a grand opening. I joined the crowd by placing an order on DoorDash for chicken shawarma and falafel, along with extra garlic sauce. Shawarma is a popular Middle Eastern dish made by stacking thin slices of marinated meat (commonly lamb, chicken, beef, or turkey) on a vertical rotisserie. As it cooks, the meat is shaved off in thin slices and typically served in pita or flatbread with toppings like tahini, garlic sauce, hummus, pickles, and vegetables.

This version was one of the tastier ones I've experienced. The bread was nicely toasted; there was a ton of the garlic sauce. And the pickled veggies added some nice relief. Same goes for the falafel – it was pretty moist, which is often hard to find. If you want some bold, satisfying flavors, look no further. Grade: A
