Sorry for being MIA last week. The laptop which had been loyally by my side the past five years has finally passed on. If you find the colours of my photos in this post a tad different from my usual ones, please bear with me for the time being while I try to get used to this new uncalibrated monitor which appears to make things more blue-ish and saturated than they should be.
Anyway, my last Sunday saw me at Tea Chapter to seek inner peace after a hectic week coupled with many sleepless nights.
There is a bit of waiting if you order hot food here. It would thus be a good idea to order some readily available snacks like the Tea Egg ($1.5) to keep the mouth occupied.
The Set B ($7) on the menu comes with one Lor Mai Kai (Glutinous Rice in Lotus Leaf), 2 x Siew Mai, 2 x Shark Fin Dumpling and a Lychee Tea Jelly. Quite worth it in terms of both quality and quantity.
The Oolong Sweet Potato ($3) here was another winner. Baked sweet potato was perfumed with the alluring scent of oolong tea. The ideal comfort food for a gloomy day.
The minimum charge of $7 per person on tea could be quite expensive for some (think for the family of 6 next to my table). But if you treat tea appreciation as a form of art, the experience is simply priceless.
