tea incident

got a few stupid incident which make me stupid and funny during the trip.

we are in a restaurant eating. their rule is 'must order water / tea'.
as tian wanted water, we ordered water. then mk wanted to drink tie guan yin. so i went to the counter and tell the gal there 'can i have a pot of Chinese tea.'

she looked blurred at me. then i realised that all tea are from China! i immediately tell her that i want tie guan yin.

after i walked away, the waitress was laughing with her colleauge.

we are so used to telling restaurant waitress that we want chinese tea and they will give us tea on default of the type they have in the restaurant.

There are so many chinese tea. the more commonly known by us are:
西湖龍井 ,烏龍茶 ,鐵觀音 ,凍頂烏龍 ,普洱茶 . these exclude ju hua, red tea, etc... i wanted to buy a 紫砂壺 for teacher but its x lor. by the way, if u wanna drink good tea, must buy 紫砂壺 . the taste of the tea is different.



Pinning for end 2009 / early 2010 for next trip...
