Taichung's best-known traditional Chinese teahouse recently opened
its sixth and seventh branches in the city, giving residents even
more opportunities to enjoy a quintessionally-Asian experience--traditionally
prepared and served tea in a beautiful atmosphere of Chinese-style
wooden rooms, passageways, ponds, lanterns and even live traditional
music performances (Tues., Thurs., Sat., Sun. 8:30-9:30 pm).
The newest two branches are in Minchuan Road, not far from Chung
Ming Road, and Chungteh 9th Road, in the general Morrison Academy
area. In addition to teas and snacks, which average about NT$200
to NT$250 per person, there are seven kinds of decent rice set lunches
and dinners, costing between NT$180 and NT$300. An English tea/meal
menu makes things convenient.
