text: I always wondered why the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf decided to open another shop in the district when they already had one inside the GVR food court I know it is a foolish question to ask when Starbucks has one on every corner The one difference between these two places is I would not hesitate to buy a drink from CBTL nnI love a good cup of strong black coffee It is difficult to find when almost all shops have their generic version that taste the same so I rarely order it nnTeas this is where this place makes a big impact Instead of having the prepacked bags that Starbucks have Coffee Bean fills yours when you order I have had them mix two flavors before and it is delightful During the winter they have winter dream and it makes for a marvelous tea latte The dragon phoenix pearl is also amazing as a latte Their pastry display looked amazing but I did not try anything Maybe next time
