Tea house

Yesterday I had interesting day. We, my boss and me, went to check out places where we could have our company Christmas party. As we took our tour with half hour instead of 1,5 hour, we had time to have a tea. And we ended up in tea house. We thought that it takes us sit down order big cup of tea and we can leave. 

Noooooo. First, it took 15 minutes set up place where we will drink tea. Than we got tea teacher who started long lecture about their NGO, about history of tea, about traditions how to drink tea etc, etc. And last but not least we got tiny, tiny cup of tea (three times thought) with jasmine. Tea itself was really good. Just we didn’t expect that kind of lecture and that tea ceremony takes so long time. My boss was late to her next meeting. Ups.
