The front part of the shop showcased a wide selection of tea leaves, all neatly displayed on glass shelves in antique cupboards. There were several seating places with old wooden marble top tables where, they also offered home-cooked local Chinese style cuisine. We immediately fell in love with its wonderful laid-back tea drinking atmosphere.
This set us on a quest to recreate that tea drinking experience again and again. Finally, we discovered the ideal glass teapot with warmer that gives us our own little tea house experience every day.
Now, we would like to share it with you.
