| Two hours of cultural immersion! Tea houses are a very common sight in China. People gather there to spend time with their friends, chat, socialise, and of course enjoy tea. Young people often meet there for a date..... Unfortunately, in Hong Kong, tea houses are very rare... But I found a lovely one in Sheung Wan district, called the Tea Studio! Once you enter this little heaven, you'll be transported to a Chinese ancient style house of Xian (the land of Terracotta warriors). Traditional wooden furniture, tiles on the ceiling, calligraphy on the wall, abacus on the desk... It is indeed a very beautiful and very peaceful interior. Here you can buy and taste all the best teas China has to offer: legendary Da Hong Pao from Fujian which smells so good, Oolong, Pu'er (my favorite, I like his earthy and woody flavour) and so many more..... Don't know much about tea, China's national beverage for 5,000 years? Let's solve this problem! At Twangoo we are offering you a 2-hour class to learn everything about this local treasure, for only HKD198! The class will focus on green tea, as this magical beverage has just sooo many health benefits. Chinese have known it since ancient time and scientific research proves it today. Green tea has antioxidant properties, it reduces the risk of cancer, and boosts your metabolism for an healthier and slimmer you... During the class, you'll be discussing the finest points on national level green teas, long jin, cui ya, xue ya with a recognised tea connoisseur. You'll discuss tea processing, learn how to use correctly each component of a tea set (yes, there is so much more than a cup and a kettle to prepare a proper cup of tea) and finally, you'll learn how to prepare an authentic Chinese style tea. Did you know the first boiling water poured on the tea leaves should be used to rinse the cup but then be thrown away? Yes it makes a big difference for the flavour... I think some of us are going to impress our friends and relatives very soon with our new found knowledge! Lola's secret: the entrance of Tea Studio is located on Tai Ping Shan st (despite the address indicating 11 Po Yan st) just next to Kwun Yam temple. This little hidden gem honours the ever popular goddess of mercy, and you can burn some incense for her or get your fortune stick read professionally either before or after the class... Bisou bisou, Foxy Lola |   | |||
