Too Much

Changing tastes are reflected quickly on the Sunset District's Irving Street, where shops and restaurants spring up and disappear like flowers after a rain. The bubble tea stores appear to have staying power as a hangout for Asian kids. It helps that the shops have free WiFi, in other words a Starbucks for teens.

The local clientele's sweet tooth having been confirmed, there's room for another confection. The moffle, a Japanese mochi waffle ice cream sandwich, made an appearance. In my younger days I would have tried one without a second thought. Today, well, that's too much of a mouthful.
