A Mexican cafe on Burrard. With pots of cacti and tacos available, it’s not your typical cafe. The staff is friendly, and we ordered a coffee (12oz) $2.25 and I tried a flower tea $2.50. Sheepie ordered a cookie, but it was hard, and not that really good.
Now, my tea was fascinating. I had never seen anything like it. When the staff brought over the glass pot with the blue flowers floating in beautiful blue water, it took my breath away. Just mesmerizing blue. When I poured into the white cup – which in itself was uniquely shaped. Love it!
There was a slice of lime, and when I squeezed a bit of it, the tea started to change colour! The tea turned into a marble of royal navy blue and dark magenta. Or closer yet, pantone 2736 and 2602 – LOL. But I guess only designers would have pantone swatchbooks
Anyways, the taste was herbal (hence caffeine free). It was different. Maybe not my regular cup of tea, but certainly entertaining to see.
When the staff brought over our order, he noticed that the table wobbled, and he got a piece of something to place under the leg of the table. Thanks!
Even after they closed, they didn’t kick us out. (sorry, we didn’t know…). Would like to return to try out their Mexican specialties.
