Boba Bliss Arrives with CHICHA San Chen
Remember back in May? We were the first to spill the tea (pun intended!) about an exciting new arrival on Spring Mountain Road. Well, the wait is almost over because the world-renowned CHICHA San Chen is bubbling its way into Las Vegas Chinatown!
This international phenomenon boasts locations across the globe, each dedicated to the art of crafting the perfect boba experience. But their reputation goes beyond trendy flavors and creative toppings. CHICHA San Chen has been awarded the equivalent of three Michelin stars by the prestigious International Taste Institute, a testament to their commitment to exceptional quality and taste.
The “Coming Soon” sign outside the former La Postte location might be keeping us in suspense, but the anticipation is brewing! Freshly brewed teas, handcrafted tapioca pearls, and innovative flavor combinations promise a delightful addition to the vibrant Las Vegas Chinatown scene.
Located in the heart of Chinatown at V City Plaza, on the north side of Spring Mountain Road between Decatur and Jones, this new spot is in prime territory. V City Plaza is home to many quality establishments like Captain 6, A Different Beast Evo Club, and other busy stores. However, one downside is the limited parking. So, consider using Uber, Lyft, or the RTC #203 bus to make your visit stress-free.
Whether you’re craving sweet treats at Suzuya Cafe, rocking out at the Sand Dollar Lounge, or escaping into a hilarious musical, there’s something for everyone in the vibrant heart of Las Vegas.
So grab your friends and family, explore all that Chinatown has to offer, and make some memories that will last a lifetime.
