It’s hard when the staff in a cafe have no idea about the teas they have. After looking a few, I decided that their tea company didn’t, either. For example, a tea labelled “Orange Pekoe” had rose petals and orange peel in it.
So, the Ceylon Breakfast.
Dry, brackish, savoury, ok I guess. They used a little too much.
This is supposedly one of the best restaurants in Adelaide, but they failed to teach their staff anything about tea. typical. And they certainly don’t want to hear my opinions, clearly I must be a nutter.
So here it is, The Devotea’s Golden Rule 1 – If you let someone else choose the venue, the tea will be crap.
