Over the weekend, some Bubbleology Tea backgrounders went up on the window at 120 1/2 First Ave., where applicants are hopeful to open a franchise here between Seventh Street and St. Mark's Place.
As noted last week, the applicants are seeking a full-liquor license this month for the former International Bar space... the info on the window notes how the London-based chain got its start...
... with info on the variety of bubble teas they serve...
There's also a notice that nine of their 43 bubble teas contain alcohol (in case you were wondering why they were seeking a full liquor license) ...
In addition to the beverage menu, Bubbleology Tea will serve a "variety of authentic Sweet & Savoury Toasted English crumpets, as well as assorted snacks," per their questionnaire on file at the CB3 website ahead of Monday evening's meeting.
We'll take a look at a few other applicant's on Monday evening's SLA committee docket later this week. The CB3-SLA meeting is at 6:30 p.m. on April 16 in the Public Hotel, 17th Floor, Sophia Room, 215 Chrystie St. between Houston and Stanton.

ReplyDeleteWhen all else fails, put booze in it.
ReplyDeleteI have an intense hatred of all establishments named -ology. Walked by a pizzeria called 'Pieology' in Brooklyn recently. Yuck.
ReplyDeleteElton John's first band was called Bluesology, if that eases the pain at all.
ReplyDeleteBubble Tea,with booze - ugh. Another mainstream clone shop in the East Village. The generic bland college kids will love it though. I am so bored.
