T is for Tea in Berkeley, our favorite tea spot is Imperial TeaCourt in Berkeley, CA

Our favorite tea spot that also serves lunch is now the Imperial Tea Court in Berkeley, CA in the gourmet ghetto.  There is a heavenly garden by the restaurant where you can sit outside.  We had lunch there yesterday around 1:00PM and there was plenty of space for two moms, and three children to sit.  I can imagine the weekends are packed as the garden also shares space with other restaurants in Epicurious Garden.

The tea is served traditionally with little tops on top of the cups to keep the tea leaves inside, they do not use strainers here.  My son had hand strung udon noodles with broth, and I had vegetarian fried rice.  Both were delicious!  I had a delicious white tea!
