Each spring, usually in March, we offer a trip to a local importer of fine teas to learn about quality teas, enjoy a tea tasting, or experience a traditional tea ceremony from China, Japan or India.
Our host, Dan Robertson is a noted tea authority, regular contributor to tea magazines and lectures around the world on teas. Since 1995 The Tea House in Naperville has been an importer, blender, and purveyor of quality teas, and the organizer of the renowned 'tea tours' to China, Korea, Japan, Tibet, India and Sri Lanka.
Class is followed by dinner at a local Chinese Restaurant: La Jiao.
Chef Wu's original beef noodle soup recipe has been passed down from generation to generation; with years to craft and perfect the dining experience. La Jiao accentuates classic "Chinese" flavors and revealing unique Sichuan tastes, the menu is exciting, flavorful and fresh.
There is plenty left over for everyone to take doggie-bags home!
