It was my first time coming across a preserved egg (or century egg) puff pastry at any Chinese bakery - it was pretty good, with a piece of preserved egg inside the pastry.

Now just go with me here as I was just as skeptical when I first ventured in. They have some great and unusual treats here, some refreshing faluda like drinks are on offer, as well as cup cakes galore. I also today ordered my sister's cake from here, while it was difficult communication effort we got there in the end. I'm picking up the cake in an hour so watch out for the update. Ok here's the update folks. The cake was out of this world, and they did manage to correctly spell my sisters name. They have found themselves a lifelong birthday cake customer. Thank you Wong's!!! Oh a word of advice DO NOT order your cake over the phone!! It will will b a long and awkward conversation at the end of which you'll be tearing your hairs out!! There will be language barrier problems over the phone trust me. Other than that, fantastico!!!!!!! With this delightful bakery you simply can can not go "Wong Wong".

They have a pretty diverse menu and you can customize the ice and sugar levels to your liking. I got the matcha milk tea with boba and I was pretty happy with the consistency of the boba here. It was soft and chewy, just the way I like it. The milk tea was mixed well and provided a good refreshment for a long walk! Unfortunately, they didn't have Wintermelon tea when we came. Hopefully they have it back in stock soon!

First time here and this place is surprisingly good, which I was not expecting at all. Got here on…read morea weekday afternoon and there was a surprisingly good amount of people but we were able to make and get our order fairly quickly. I ordered the Black Sesame Tapioca Milk Tea and I appreciate that it already came with boba. At first, I thought the drink was a bit too sweet for my taste but after mixing in the sesame, the drink got much better. I really love how thick the sesame flavor was and I appreciate that you can taste all the sesame seeds to it. Beyond the milk tea, I really appreciate the decorations in the milk tea shop down to the printed shiba and logo name on the straw. Also the cover for the milk tea was actually so cute. Definitely would come back to try all their different milk teas.

One bun at a time. This little bakery tucked into an old arched building has nothing but freshly baked goodies (a few savoury snacks too like pasties) and for that we love them. I've never tried the bubble tea myself but friends have raved about it - they have all different flavours so it is definitely on my to do list. But I can tell you that their cakes with cream, fresh fruit, things like that are so so delicious. The prices, whilst steeper than a donut in Greggs, are still pretty good for what you are getting so don't let this put you off.

If you see people queuing they are probably in the hot food queue and so cold food only people should nip round to the right for the sushi/cold drinks queue. What they have here that I think Brum does not is bubble tea! I tried the matcha which wasn't the best ever but still am impressed to have it in a takeaway place and as ever really do think Wasabi is very decent quality and consistency for a takeaway restaurant. I always get the rainbow selection and a pink mochi and always enjoy!

The matcha milk tea here is really nice, it tasted a bit sweeter than Chatime despite having mine with no sugar, but it did taste good and they have a good variety of flavours and toppings available. The prices are also reasonable, plus they have that essential loyalty card! Service was good, the staff were friendly and they accept card payment. Overall nice bubble tea a bit more on the sweeter side amongst all the boba shop competition in Chinatown.

Nestled in a back street in China Town, you need to go underground to a den of tastiness which would actually make you think you's stepped into the Far-East. We're talking about Chinese news on the tv, everything in Mandarin/Cantonese and basically loads of hustle and bustle going on from the regular patrons. I got mine to go - choosing the honeydew melon flavour from the many many flavours and offer - went for half sugar and tapioca pearls (everything is customisable) - for £3.50 (regular size is £3) it was was well worth it due to the bubbly pleasure it brought me!
