The Fifth floor at Harvey Nics is renowned for luring in foodies and the fabulously famished people of London. We never know what we’re going to find when we visit. There was a sign for a Spice Girls themed afternoon tea which we regret passing up! (There just wasn’t enough time!) However, as soon as we ascended the escalator this gorgeous rainbow sign beckoned us towards the counter. Bubble tea!! I LOVE bubble tea! This was sure to be tasty!
I ordered my favorite flavor of frozen yogurt/bubble tea of all time (and I think forever) TARO! Isn't it weird that it’s a starch? It’s so sweet and creamy and refreshing!! There are many other fruity flavors. What's unique is you can choose the flavor of your 'bubble'. Lychee, Apple, Regular etc. I just stuck to the classic plain tapioca. SO YUM! You've got to give bubble tea a try.
It’s safe to say I liked this place A LOT!! (the fact that it looks like a laboratory just makes it more fun!)
