Tea, not coffee

I forgot to take a picture of Kuan Yin Teahouse yesterday, but I am back again this morning, so here we go:

It's a very pleasant and calming place, compared to the sometimes busy energy found in a Tully's. I was also struck by the contrast between this place and Remedy Teas up on Cap Hill. That place is all hip and modern, with digital timers and Star Trek tumblers and high-tech steeping cages. That's not how they roll here at Kuan Yin:


Quaint is the only word I can think of for this: china, egg timers, little pots. Very nice.

Have a great Saturday!

Love love love Kuan Yin! I miss living in Wallingford. But then, it doesn't have the water thing. Except for the lake. Hmmm...
