TEA-TO BE ENJOYED ALWAYS ๐ ๐ต
In my previous post I had written about my desire of opening a caffe for coffee lovers.itโs but natural to also talk and write about Tea ๐ต.Isnโt it?. Both Coffee and Tea are like two eyes.Vital๐โโ๏ธ.
It was an evening with rain pouring like cats and dogs. I couldnโt resist but go out on a ride on my dhanno(scooter). Itโs okay to be drenched I thought ( but listened to my heart and wore my raincoat). Out on my scooter with rain falling with a hustling sound and the cool breeze upon my face the mood was nothing but romantic.
I have to say there are is one more option other than becoming romantic. Guess what!!!. To have a Hot Cup of Masala Tea or Garam Chai to make the mood more pleasant. I went with this second option.You can opt for the first option along with a cup of tea ๐ต too to make it even more special. So, I started scouting for a nice cosy tea shop to sit with my hot cup of tea as my companion that rainy evening. I ended up in a small but, cute shop to have a sip of tea โ๏ธ.
This introduction is not to highlight my moods but, to emphasise how magical a Cup of Tea is Thatโs is the speciality of Tea. Weather plays an important role in sipping a masala tea. Temptations of a Tea cannot be ignored. Thatโs the magic of the Hot cup of Tea or Garam Chai.
Now that I had settled for a chai I saw the decor in that small place and was impressed totally. When the ambience is cosy then, the mood to have a hot cup of Tea goes up. Now that I found a shop I couldnโt ignore, but see the beautiful green plants and the decor of the shop. The better the ambience the nicer to drink a hot cup of tea. Isnโt it.๐ .
There were some fried snacks like puffs, samosas, pastries to add on. Tea is more nicer to sip if one has it with a fried snack. Tea+a Snack is the most bought after combo.
The cosy comfy green tea shop ๐ชด๐๐๐
With a foot tapping music to listen I comfortably settled for a romantic date with my tea. I wanted to choose a tea for myself which will be my romantic date for the rainy evening. And there were many choices. With a name to remember for, I settled down for a โ BUBBLEGUM CHAIโ. Whatta name !! Bubbling with energy like my mood ๐คฃ๐คฃ.
After ordering the tea, my date started with sipping this bubblegum tea. The tea was bubbly, energetic and perfect for a date๐๐ .
Again coming to write-up, which is about tea, I really had a memorable date with this hot ๐ฅcup of tea.
Unlike Coffee which is more of an affluent family favourite, tea is for any common man from a labourer to white collar job individual. The more the crowd in the group the more one enjoys having a sip of tea. There is a word in the local slang for this โ ADDAโn โGUPSHUP in Hindi, โGOLPOโ,in Bengali, Arratai in Tamil (these words mean the chatty juicy gossips, politics, and the discussions, every topic under the sun a group of friends talk with a cup of tea).
The word Chai on a board of a shop makes it all the more inviting. While going out one tend to stop to have a sip of tea as the boards are very prominent and colourful too.
It will be unfair to end this write-up without a mention about Green Tea which is making the right noises nowadays everywhere. So, health conscious people can enjoy their green teas, black tea in these tea shops.
There used to be this ad featuring the Tabla Maestro Zakir Hussain for a Tea brand . The jingle which he told in the ad โWAH TAJ!โ made the tea more popular among the masses.
This write-up is dedicated to all the Tea lovers in this planet.
A big thanks to the chains of tea shops like Chaayos, Chai- point to name a few, which has made convenient for people to enjoy a tรชte-ร -tรชte with a cup of hot tea ๐ต with their friends.
โA HOT TEA GIVES YOU COMPANY WHEN ALONE.
A HOT TEA BECOMES A PLACE TO TALK WHEN IN A GROUP OF PEOPLE TOOโ
I want to end with the same words with which I started this write-up.
TEA - TO BE ENJOYED ALWAYS ๐ซ๐ต
Also gumti, mudiyan ki dukan...๐
Tea during rainy season gives you cozy and comfort feel ๐
