time for teaa quick peek into the life of tai tais:)
high class tea..
after getting nearly lost..
pei yee and i finally got to the tea place
"tea bone zen mind"
interesting name isnt it:)
and from what py tells me..
'tea bone' and 'zen mind' are 2 tea book names
the place is really nice
adds to the dining experience:)
on the ground level..its only a very unassuming door
walk up the flight of stairs and a girl figurine greets you
the staff inside quickly ushers you to a seat
*pretty furnishing inside:) mix of modern and old
and the place is like a art gallery man:)
once you are seated and confortable
one lady there would bring a cold towel and a tiny glass of hot water
and the small pretty menu
the prices there are pretty steep though
oh..and there is a slection of reading material too
py had a sourplum tea
i had a peach tea[plus a thick slice of a peach:)]
we each had a tea egg
and we shared a plate of cucumber sandwiches
and the food was so yummilious!
like very very very good
or as the french would say..tres bien:)
in total we paid 35 bucks i think
10 each for the teas, 3.5 for each tea egg, and 8 for the sandwiches
way too expensive to make this a regular hang out place
but its very nice for a treat:)
and now i know where to go if i have some time[and money] for tea:)
