Product Description
Two of Americas leading tea writers have combined their talents to introduce you to all things tea in The Big Apple. Elizabeth Knight, tea sommelier at the grand St. Regis Hotel, leads you across Manhattan and its boroughs to experience over 100 tea rooms, tea salons, tea shops, tea bars, hotel teas, museum teas, tea cafes and restaurants that serve exceptional tea. Over 130 color photographs by Bruce Richardson and lots of neighborhood maps aid you in experiencing the city with tea on your mind.
Reader ReviewsI had slight sticker shock and hesitated to buy this book. In fact, when it arrived, I was a bit unhappy with the small size. Having perused this small tome (with a cuppa in hand, of course), I've come to realize that my reservations were in vain. What a great book for the tea lover! This guide is not only informative, but well written. I'll be reading it again and again, and I'm sure that many a happy afternoon will be spent in the City (and here in Brooklyn, too) thanks to Ms. Knight. The only downside is that the fifth NYC borough is not mentioned... sounds like a great opportunity for someone in Staten Island to rise to the occasion for a possible (and hoped for by this reader) 2008 edition.
