Tea Essence Inc.
I've been here three times, since it's the closest tearoom to me, at twenty minutes' walk away. The first time, I had the white 'monkey-picked' and it was nice enough. The second time, I arrived at fifteen minutes until closing and was informed that the register had already been emptied and that they were closed. The third time, at 9:24pm, the door was already locked, in defiance of the cheerful 'OPEN' sign sitting in the window. Apparently the proprietors have concluded that their chances of being robbed in their final hour of business surpass the chances of anyone buying tea, and have altered their strategy accordingly. Call ahead if you don't want to make the trip here in vain.
