Xing Fu Tang

If you want to see how the 'pearls' in bubble tea are actually made, head to Xing Fu Tang, which whips up hourly batches in a huge cauldron. This premium Taiwanese chain prides itself on steering clear of artificial flavours and preservatives, instead favouring natural flavours and real tea. The house special is a brown sugar milk that comes topped with freshly blowtorched sugar, crème brulee style.
