Our new favorite place. 2022-05-14: Tea lunch today. Soup and salad, scone, mini dessert and small pot of pomegranate tea. The owner was also our server today. Pleasant conversation. 2022-05-07: My daughter and I came for the first visit the Saturday before Mother’s Day. Surprised with the special menu (Royal Tea) and very delighted. I absolutely loved everything I ate. Portions seem perfect size for watching your waistline but, Royal Tea is a large meal. I was actually so full from bottom less tea as well, that I took home a half sandwich. Owner’s son and chef came to ask how everything was. He was cordial and took our picture to make the memory last longer. Hostess was pleasant and this is the way food should be enjoyed. Relaxing, beautiful environment.
