London tea exchange – Brick Lane

My friend and I ended up here by luck, looking for a place to get warm and escape the rain, and we couldn’t have had a better surprise! Seen the fancy look of the waiters and the atmosphere of the place, we kind of freaked out that we would be ruined at the end but not at all! This place has more than 300 types of tea, they do not have a menu and the idea is that you tell the waiter the type of teas you like, and you smell a few of different kinds until you find the one you like the most. When the waiter arrived with the 3rd kind of tea, and told us it was a black tea made of 3 different Belgian chocolates with coconut flakes he got us! We shared a pot of this sweet delight and had a piece of a very good looking (and tasty) carrot cake. And of course all the waiters were friendly and elegant and made the experience even more exciting. So glad we found a shelter from the rain is such a nice place!
