"The Strip will have a 7 Leaves Cafe to call its own on Saturday. The cafe, dubbed the Asian Starbucks, opens at the Venetian, next door to the recently opened Halal Guys at the resort. A group of seven, four brothers and three friends, started the chain in Orange County’s Little Saigon in 2012. Now the company has grown to 16 locations in Southern California, along with one in Chinatown in Las Vegas and future locations in Houston. The company uses traditional Vietnamese methods such as stove top cooking and hand drip Vietnamese coffee phins. The compact menu specializes in teas, coffees, and 10 flavors of macarons. Beverage choices include oolong milk or strawberry hibiscus teas, sea cream black coffee or jasmine tea, Vietnamese coffee, and Japanese matcha soy." - Susan Stapleton
