Tea Review- Malaya Tea Room

It was my birthday this past week so of course another excuse for afternoon tea! I think my friends might be a little bit tired of tea at this point but they were good sports about coming with me to try out this place anyway!

Birthday Freebies!

One of the possibilities of prompts this month for Bibliotheca which was "lounging around" was "Fun things to watch to distract you from the weight of modern existence?" This post isn't about watching something but it is about a fun activity you can do to distract yourself from the weight of modern existence imo! 

Meet Up Report: Dessert Tour

I hosted a meetup that was a walking dessert tour of Downtown San Mateo! There's a ton of cute dessert places in the area and it's super walkable.

Tea Review: iChina

 

iChina was on my maybe list of places to go as they are a regular restaurant but with a afternoon tea section. However I was recommended it by several different people and I have seen quite a few Instagram reels of the cute desserts! A friend we were making plans with had to pivot and I suggested iChina as a backup and they were willing to try it 💖

A heads up to anyone wanting to go here that this is almost completely desserts (with optional add on dimsum) so just be aware if you go it's going to be very sweets heavy!

Tea Review: Dartealing Lounge

I visited Dartealing Lounge with some friends in my continuing quest to visit all the tea places! I've been to this tea place several times before and really enjoyed it- but will it stack up to all the other ones I've been to? 

Tea Review: Dainteas

Next up on the tea tour is Dainteas! They are a by-reservation-only tea place in Concord. I was excited to see the invitation to the birthday party to this tea place as it's one I have not been to this year!
