We first heard from Jack Vo who owns the Baltimore, MD location of Bambu. According to their website, "In 2008, four Vietnamese sisters – Anh, Kelly, Jenny & Julie – opened their first Bambū Shoppe in the heart of the Vietnamese community in San Jose, California. Their exceptionally friendly service and large menu of fresh, healthy, and authentic Chè dessert drinks, crisp boba milk teas, signature Vietnamese coffees, real fruit smoothies and exotic juices captured the attention of the entire San Francisco Bay Area. Today, there are 63 Bambū Shoppes located in 24 states, Canada, and the Philippines and 9 Shoppes in development.
