Chinatown
More infoTreasure Green is a small, warm Chinatown tea shop whose main event is owner Olivia, who greets you with a sample before pouring a full flight of whites, greens, and blacks like she's opening a good bottle of wine. She steeps each in front of you, narrating the goji, longan, and orange-peel notes without overselling. Leave budget for the bag of tea you'll inevitably buy on the way out.
Pull up a stool in this century-old Chinatown shop and let owner Olivia pour you a flight like a tea sommelier, whites, greens and blacks steeped in front of you, with the goji, longan and orange-peel notes narrated, never oversold. It's a genuinely lovely, low-cost slow-down; leave room in the budget for the bag (and teaware) you'll inevitably buy. Give it about an hour. Then carry the warmth on to the rest of Chinatown's rainy-day corners.
