5 out of 5 stars A Great and insightful beautiful book   April 6, 2008
I am new to the love of the history of tea. I ordered this book not only because I wanted to learn more about tea but because we are planning a trip to Ireland this spring. I know Ireland is famous for its pubs but I wanted to see if they also have some great tea houses. this book is a beautiful coffee table style book with gorgeous pictures and interesting facts.

The author does a nice job of introducing us to some of the pretty places in Britain. The descriptions are good and the pictures pretty. I would like to see the complete menu in order to plan my visits. The complete address and phone number would be helpful. The book is a lovely one to inspire you.


2 out of 5 stars Disappointing!   March 9, 2006
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

We are getting ready to open the tea room in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and I assumed this book would be helpfull but its was not. Lots of recipes were not accurate, missing steps and ingridients, the photos are nice, but they do not match the recipes. Very disappointing!
