New Bubble Bar Concept at Conrad Chicago

The Terrace at Conrad, Chicago reopens this month. This season, the Terrace at the Conrad Chicago offers guests refreshing spirits from the exclusive ‘Bubble Bar,’ which provides effervescent blended alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, including several trendy new bubble teas. Also new at The Terrace this season is Executive Chef Zafar’s StaxX menu: an innovative menu bringing dinner to new heights by stacking multiple meal selections in separate eco-chic bamboo steamers.

The Bubble Bar, a new addition to The Terrace at Conrad’s full bar, includes several varieties of bubble tea, a beverage of Taiwanese origin that is quickly rising to fame in North America, which combines a tea (usually black or green) with a variety of fruit juices, ice, pulp and occasionally milk. In addition to bubble tea, the bar offers several blended mixtures of fresh fruit juices and purees, syrup, shaved ice, spirits (optional), creating a smooth and refreshing cocktail. The distinctive garnishes of all the Bubble Bar drinks are homemade tapioca pearls, which create the necessary “bubbling” effect. The current Bubble Bar menu, which will expand throughout the summer, features selections like mango delight with mango puree, complemented with fresh squeezed citruses and rum; and the sinister framboise with sweet raspberry puree, fresh lime juice and vodka.

The StaxX menu offers guests the luxury of choosing multiple meal selections stacked separately and layered in individual bamboo steamers. Guests can choose from Haute, Cool, Main or Sweet StaxX menu items to stack selections ranging from US $8-$25 such as haute rock StaxX satay, duck confit spring rolls, mini crab cake burgers, Typhoon sushi platter, Vietnamese style soft summer rolls, vegan vegetarian samosas, cinnamon chip nachos, tea-infused panna cotta, crispy apple wontons and cheesecake flautas.

Terrace guests can also enjoy “Movies on The Terrace,” presenting screenings of pop culture movies every Sunday and Monday evening at sunset in a chic South Beach-influenced outdoor setting with cityscape views.

Located on the fifth floor of the Conrad Chicago, 521 North Rush Street, The Terrace at Conrad is open daily Sunday through Thursdays from 11.30 am – 11.00pm, Friday and Saturday from 11.30 am – 12.00 am through September, weather permitting.
