      When everyone has finished their meals, Milki prefers us to be there either at 115pm or after their opening rush which I assume will be 20minutes? I'm going to say we'll move to Milki around 145-2pm.

  • Thank you Alb-onion. Texted you my order

  • @donga100 @Jamesozbargain @jon @Kikkoman56 @m3h117108 @ozproud @OzzyBrak @Warmachine99

      • +1

        sorry my bad, I should have used google forms or something and this just got a bit messy, i must've missed it :(

    • Hi OP, can I please get Pork spring rolls + Combination pork chop broken rice + scoop ice cream + Strawberry milk tea with pearls (if the drink can't be a strawberry milk series drink with the ice cream combo, please scrap the ice cream and i'll just get 2x strawberry milk with pearls).

      Thank you for organising!

      • it's only the $7 drinks they're doing with the ice cream special unfortunately, if you want the strawberry series, that's fine, you just need to pay extra $1, otherwise, with the 2x PMT, it's just their roasted oolong PMT (L1) they're offering on special. Please let me know which you'd prefer :D
