T2 Chai Project
On Sunday my friend Esmeralda and I decided to go to Soho, Manhattan to have our coffee. Before going to La Colombe we saw this awesome tea shop they had beautiful tea cups and kettles. The shop was called T2 Chai Project. It was really cozy in there and I loved their tea bags boxes. The shop is all based about Indian tea, which means chai. Since, India is a large nation it is filled with various cultures and traditions. There were different types of tea. They don'y only serve Indian tea, but tea from Australia, for example Earl Grey. You can try some of the tea because they offer samples. They have a small orange cup that you drink with. The flavors I tried was Kashmiri King, Mumbai Maple, Raving Raja and Go Go Goa. My favorite one was the Kashmiri King and the Go Goa Goa because they had a sweet taste to it. Mumbai Maple and Raving Raja were okay they weren't great for me because it was sort of strong for me, but my friend Esmeralda loved all of them. I couldn't get over that store because it was so creative and beautiful, and I loved the name.
LA Colombe
After that we went our way to La Colombe and decided to get back to our American drink: coffee. When we went to La Colombe it was packed, it was hard to find a place to sit down. But I knew why there was so much rush because there service and coffee is amazing. They make the coffee right in front of you and you have to stand at a separate place to pick up your coffee. They give you the spoon and the small plate while you are waiting for your coffee to be made. There are two types of china's one is plain white and the other one is with blue printings on it. I got the white plain one. There foam design looked great; very neat. I ordered a small cappuccino and Esmeralda ordered a small ice latte; hers wasn't as fancy but she loved it. I enjoyed my cup of cappuccino, I just wished the place wasn't packed. But, a packed place is a good sign that means it serves good coffee. They have two locations on Soho one is on Lafayette St and one on Houston St. Then we decided to end our coffee adventure and go back home.
