"I'm told it will open sometime this spring at 154 Harvard Ave in the space that was briefly home to the Hot Spot; this Allston location is part of the Taiwan-based Gong Cha chain, which operates in the northeastern U.S., California, and Texas and is rolling out more than six new U.S. shops this spring and summer.
