| - The concept behind this store is interesting and definitely makes it unique. It makes the bubble tea creation process more interactive; however, at the end of the day it is fairly gimmicky. Might not be a good idea if you're very indecisive!
You start by choosing if you want:
1) hot or cold
2) milk based or syrup based - which flavours you want
3) sugar levels - maple ($1 extra), brown, or regular
4) milk (evaporated or fresh)
5) toppings (boba, jellies, tapioca)
6) tea (green, black, oolong)
To select the flavour and sugar level you select the tube that you want, and when you're ready you give it all to the staff or "scientists" will combine everything together for you.
I got the red bean, sesame with "original" (they recommend you get it). When I asked what tea would work well, they suggested a green tea. Even though I wouldn't come back for the experience, I did think that this was a really good combination! It had a really strong fragrance, and the flavours blended really well (my friends couldn't figure out what was inside when they tried it).
There's not a lot of seating either, it's pretty minimalistic. Also, there's a durian flavour, and at one point it was extremely pungent (and slightly nauseating.)
