Just Soy Cafe in Sunnybank Hills is our go to meeting spot. Its relatively close by to all our houses, its cheap, its quick and we can stuff around in the cafe for ages. Its pretty popular with Asian students. since it does a lot of Asian style desserts, soy custards, bubble teas and a really solid traditional frappe. Think Meet Fresh with a third of the queue.

| Just Soy Cafe |
Its located in a weird little spot but its also quite near to everything? Its close to Calamvale Centre Shopping Centre, Pick n Pay Hypermarket, about 10 minutes away from Sunnybank's Market Square. I think its weird anyway, the parking is all out the back of the store, and its heading towards suburban local traffic.
I have very fond memories of this place. I'm not sure when we discovered it last year, maybe VGirl found it. Almost every second or third day of winter, we went to this shop and bought a traditional or Japanese matcha green tea frappe. In winter. Heading out food shopping, Just Soy Cafe, going to work, Just Soy Cafe, heading home from work, Just Soy Cafe, bored at home, Just Soy Cafe.
It got to the stage where the shop assistants recognised us by sight and could predict our three frappes, mine was always red kidney beans, rainbow jelly and then some type of giant flavoured pearl, whilst VGirl's was always fresh fruit, pearls and then rainbow jelly. My mother's was always something different. The creme caramels here are absolutely delicious, and I'm not even a fan, smooth, slightly sweet, with a sultry wobble and oozy caramel sauce. The Asian flavoured ice creams here are fantastic too, their green tea and black sesame ice cream are just sweet enough, lovely, creamy and incredibly dense.
Oddly, we never go here once the weather warms up? After we went to Little Singapore, we went to Just Soy Cafe, us being VGirl, JGirl and I, Yannikins and Shishi had to leave us. VGirl and JGirl shared a dish whilst I went solo, and I immensely regret this decision.

| Japanese Green Tea Matcha Frappe |
VGirl tried to get a few of her options changed in her Japanese Matcha Green Tea frappe but they said they weren't able to do any substitutions, however when she asked if they could add fresh fruit to her dessert, they also said no? She then ordered my one which had the additional of sweet potato balls, a mix of a traditional pearl with bits of sweet potato, and that was fine. Weird, I know, maybe it was a language barrier? The traditional green tea matcha frappe contains adzuki beans, green matcha pearls, regular pearls, a scoop of green tea ice cream all on top of a massive bed of shaved ice, condensed milk and matcha tea syrup.
