I visited The Whale Tea on September 18, 2025, at 3:20 PM. The café was very clean and cozy, with a welcoming atmosphere. I ordered the bubble crème brûlée, and it was absolutely delicious! Special thanks to Chloe Li and Daniel Mo for their friendly and attentive service. I will definitely be coming back again!100%👍 - Uma Amin
