Designing the World's Most Expensive Bubble Tea (Boba) by TEALEAVES x The St. Regis San Francisco

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Designing the World's Most Expensive Bubble Tea (Boba) by TEALEAVES x The St. Regis San Francisco (A Five-Star Experience):
Bubble tea (or boba) is a beverage of Taiwanese origin that first appeared in the 1980s, of which chewy tapioca pearls are poured into a glass of iced, sweetened tea. Today, the drink has gained popularity beyond Asia and is enjoyed by many around the world.
How do you make something ordinary, extraordinary? The art of plating meets the art of tea in this SFDW talk on design, technique, sourcing, and craftsmanship in the world of fine dining.
In luxury, it's the details that matter. Enjoy a taste of the World's Most Expensive Bubble Tea by TEALEAVES x The St. Regis San Francisco, while we talk about our collaborative journey from ideation to creation, exploring color + aroma + taste to form the perfect palate. Learn how texture plays a role in culinary creations to create an enjoyable dining experience.
Luxury tea blender TEALEAVES, known for training five star hotels and Michelin Star chefs worldwide in the art of tea, will share with you the proper techniques of blending, preparing, tasting, as well as evaluating the perfect cup of tea.
With chef as artist and glass as canvas, Chef Franck Desplechin from The St. Regis San Francisco will share with you the design elements he uses to complete his culinary vision: from sourcing the highest quality ingredients to responsible sourcing, technique, and plating.
The World's Most Expensive Bubble Tea project is a fun, five-star twist to a popular beverage, using the highest quality ingredients possible to create something unforgettably delicious. It's a game of balance and blending: to let the quality of each ingredient shine where the whole becomes greater than the sum of its parts. It's Bubble Tea, re-imagined.
