CHAI WALI
TEA CULTURE
274 Lenox Avenue ( West 124th st)
New York, New York
646-688-5414
Beautiful, delightful, charming, tea room and more, with a
21st century twist. The front courtyard set the stage, as you know if its that's
adorable on the outside, the inside will be even more of a surprise. Its a a
wonderful experience to have such a relaxing lunch... Very good tea list of
course,,,,
The menu is a touch of India with all the light aromatic
spices, yet has the new modern flair to it. I had a chunky avocado open faced
sandwich with interesting leaves on it, and a light lemon oil dressing sitting
on top of a multi grain bread. The entire menu was recognizable foods, with a
global balance of seasonings and spices.
There was a beautiful garden in the back, and then up a
lovely staircase in this old gutted out brownstone, was the ZUM ZUM room, for
more seating and dinners, with an outstanding menu you can view on the website.
This room had interesting design and space, and even an almost real
peacock.
Certainly this new comer will be a huge hit and they told
us live music will follow soon. Sooo take the 2/3 train to 125th Street and you
are practically there... So worth the trip as this place is a real destination,
nothing else like it in NYC. Our waiter Peter was warm and welcoming and
explained everything.
