Wucha Foodie is a cafe on Northside Drive in Westgate, Auckland, carrying a 3.3-star Google rating from 53 reviews. Customers single out the friendly service, the rich smashed fruit series and a yoghurt range whose durian flavour comes with real fruit flesh.
At a good fresh-fruit tea house, drinks are made to order — fruit smashed or shaken in the cup rather than poured from a syrup bottle — so the same watermelon or passionfruit drink can vary a lot from shop to shop. Most places let you adjust the sugar and ice, and toppings like pearls are optional, worth skipping if you want the tea itself to shine. Milk tea drinkers tend to judge a shop on whether the brewed tea still stands up to the milk.
For Westgate locals, it's a handy stop when the craving is for milk tea or something boldly fruity.
