A few years back when brown sugar drinks were all the craze, Singaporeans were ecstatic when Taiwanese bubble tea chain Xing Fu Tang arrived on our shores.

While Xing Fu Tang arrived in Singapore to much fanfare back in 2019, the Taiwanese brand has apparently gone on a ‘closing spree’ since Sep 2021, with the shuttering of its outlets at Compass One and Plaza Singapura.
Over the next 1.5 years, the Taiwanese bubble tea chain closed seven other outlets across the island, including:
