Drink tea? Don’t mind if I do. In fact, if you’re looking for a direct translation for what yum cha means, well… that’s it. Now, what if you could grab a pot of tea as well as fresh and spicy flavours, right in the heart of the city?
The good news is that Akiba has you covered.
As anyone who has visited a yum cha restaurant knows, there’s a lot more to this amazing Southern-Chinese dining style than just tea.
Yum cha is a great chance to sit with friends and family and relax on a weekend with a dazzling array of flavours – typically delivered via a small wooden cart with energy and speed, still steaming from their preparation in the frenetic kitchen.
This weekend, Akiba is bringing its electric edge to the yum cha experience – throwing open the doors from 10.00am until 3.00pm on Saturday and Sunday so you can get a taste for yourself of this eclectic dining experience.
The great thing about yum cha is that, apart from the obligatory pot of tea and busy and exciting atmosphere, there are no rules. This means the team at Akiba are really letting loose with their ideas for flavours.
Who knows what will take the chef’s fancy. Just sit back and wait as made-up morsels as well as reimagined classics head out onto the floor to be swooped up by the ravenous room? All we can say for sure is that you’re bound to be amazed and that anything can happen.
Head on in to Akiba this weekend and see for yourself!
