One of the things I really wanted to do in South Korea was check out the animal cafes. Mostly a cat cafe. So after a long early afternoon of shopping with a friend we made our way to Myeongdong and after drooling over all the street food we made our way to Attic Cat. The cat cafe is on the 6th [...]

Gong Cha
Gong Cha is a Taiwanese drink shop that's opened up shops all over the world. It's a pretty big milk tea/bubble tea chain in South Korea. When I went I ordered their winter melon and was surprised to just how many flowers were all over my cup. They're definably into spring. It was really good. [...]
Saint’s Alp Tea House
Saint's Alp Tea House is probably one of my favorite places in Chicago. Located at South Archer Avenue this tea shop restaurant serves some of my favorite teas and snacks. Throughout the time I've lived in/near Chicago I've gone here a lot. I've had the same waiter, accidentally and coincidentally almost every time I've gone. [...]
Emerald City Coffee
Emerald City Coffee is located underneath the Sheridan Redline stop at 3938 North Sheridan Road. I went to meet up with a friend who lives in the area. I ordered a cup of their ginger peach tea and they offered me one bag or two. I got one since I don't like my tea [...]
Bee & Tea
Bee & Tea is located in Wicker Park at 1843 West North Avenue. I had a couple of friends suggest Bee & Tea, saying out of all the bubble tea shops in Chicago it was their favorite. We went just for tea, but they do serve food. They sell bao and bowls. Their bao is [...]
St. Louis- The London Tea Room
Located at 3128 Morgan Ford Road The London Tea Room is a bit of Britain in St. Louis. A friend told me about it before I left to visit my sisters. The London Team Room is broken up into two different rooms, one is for people who have reservations for high tea/afternoon tea, and it's [...]
Bubbleology
Before we left London for good I saw a Bubbleology and grabbed a coconut bubble tea to go. Bubbleology can be found in several places around London including Heathrow Airport. It's a cute science themed bubble tea shop and I enjoyed one last tea before boarding the plane to head home.
Kung Fu Tea
Kung Fu tea is located on the second level in new chinatown in the plaza at 2126 B South Archer Avenue. The only way I've found to get to the second level is by stairs, and there are several sets of stairs around the plaza to get up to the second level. When a friend [...]
Up…T
While we were looking for a restaurant in Chinatown I noticed this small bubble tea shop and made a mental note to go there after dinner. After dinner turned out to be surprisingly super spicy my cousin and I headed over to Up...T. It's a small shop that only had a few workers. They had [...]
The Drake Hotel’s Palm Court
The Drake Hotel is at 140 E Walton Pl. For my birthday a friend told me we were going out for tea and to dress nicely and to bring my camera but didn't tell me where we were going. She had made a reservation for us at the Drake Hotel for afternoon tea in the Palm [...]
