Inspiring Conversations with Bay Vanithbuncha of Bruu Cafe

Today we’d like to introduce you to Bay Vanithbuncha.

Hi Bay, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
Bruu Cafe is a specialty Bubble Tea Shop inspired by the bubble tea craze in Asia. I am originally from Thailand, and there are several niche bubble tea shops around. I would like to bring those experiences to the US, and Kansas City would be a perfect location to start.

Recipes at our bubble tea shop are unique in flavor and its origin. For example, Milk Tea Cream Brûlée has a tale taste of creme brûlée served with our signature Taiwanese brown sugar bubble. Our brown sugar is carefully selected, which is also from Taiwan. At Bruu Cafe, we only use quality products as ingredients as we believe in what we eat is what we are. We use organic whole milk, organic cocoa powder, premium matcha green tea, and rare hojicha powder as example.

Our store is inspired by Asian simplicity, neutral tone and welcomes our guests with Korean lounge music. Our goal is to provide our guests the best experience, not only just our drinks. We are looking forward to be a destination of all friends who are bubble tea patrons and newcomers who would like to try something new! We always have special drinks for different seasons. In Summer we have Mango Cheesecake and Strawberry Shortcake. Stay tuned for the next few weeks for our special offer this Fall!

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
We are struggles with COVID-19 that caused us a big delay in store opening.

We’d be interested to hear your thoughts on luck and what role, if any, you feel it’s played for you?
We have been diligent in preparing recipes, ingredients, and atmosphere for a year before opening. So far, there have been more positives than negatives on what we offer to customers.
