I love tea. I love drinks in general, but tea is one of my greatest loves so imagine my excitement when a new tea place opened in Abuja with tea in the name! I went about two weeks ago to try it.
It's a cute little place that only sits six people so perfect if you really don't want to be around too may people.
As adventurous as pomegranate tea sounded, I went for a safe and regular lemon and mint tea.
I would have died if they plonked a mug on my table. A great part of drinking tea is the experience of drinking tea, you know?
When it comes down to it, I'm not sure basically a candle can keep a whole pot of tea warm but it was a pretty sentiment.
The pot was HUGE. It would be easy to share this with one or two people. I felt like I kept pouring and pouring and pouring, but that's a good thing.
I didn't really want to have any 'real' dessert so I had some fresh strawberries and cream. It was killed with cream, wow, I had to dig through to look for the strawberries. However, on a fatter day, I might have appreciated that. I wonder how long it would take before the cream becomes insignificant. Nigerian places are excellent at not remaining consistent and it's more than a little frustrating.
Their desserts looked very good for tea. Their sweetness would be tempered by the blandness of tea, but I was a little surprised at the lack of chocolate offering. I got their menu after I was done because I went in their trial week and they have selection of breakfasts, savoury foods and an option for high tea(mini sandwiches, desserts and tea to share).
The price is fair but I think at its very maximum. Any push and it will be too expensive especially for a place in Abuja.
I will definitely be going again, especially on a diet! (Money or food diet)
