A New Addition

Am I addicted to Tea of Teaware? I think more so the latter....

During my visit to Hong Kong, I made a deliberate effort to visit "Best Teahouse" given all the buzz about this wonderful teahouse. Before that, I popped into about half a dozen other teahouses which left me unimpressed.

Stepping into Best Teahouse, main branch, at Lai Chi Fok, was a pleasant change. I was surrounded by beautiful teaware and tea varieties.

I had no intention of buying anything as I had recently purchased 2 teapots and other Pu-er bings. But "unfortunately" my eyes were drawn to 2 teapots in the display case labelled "1970 - 1980 teapots".

Checked my wallet..........enough cash for either 1. Ater playing around with them and examining them for half an hour, my wife made the final decision and we chose the apple shaped Zhuni teapot.

So with great delight, I added a new teapot to my collection.
