Wazzup Pilipinas !
I'm betting every peso in my pocket right now that everywhere you' ll look within a 10 kilometer radius of a popular mall or commercial district in Metro Manila that there's bound to be a milk tea store somewhere with those creatively coined brand names derived from the use of the word "tea".
I am actually wondering if there's already a milk tea shop called Perplexi-Tea. But, yes! I am truly perplexed on why milk tea shops are spreading like mushrooms. Though they are really great tasting and refreshing , how come restaurants don't just add them on their menus as one of their drinks. Why capitalize on setting up a separate store that primary sells milk teas, then eventually add some sweets, pastries and desserts to match.
I guess we Filipinos would like to drop by stores where we could take out drinks on the go....and we all jump into the bandwagon of fads and the hype of the season.
