Tiny Tea Shop

     One day, a tea shop followed me on instagram (silohime) named Tiny Tea Shop. Since it sounds promising, I decided to check out their profile and searched for their Facebook account. Lo and behold! Such a cute tea shop with comfy places to lounge about and a comforting vibe. Also, the reviews are good so I decided to “bookmark” it and schedule a time to visit the place with CJ.

    We decided to visit the place on our monthsary (which thankfully was half day for our office). We scanned the area looking for the tea shop only to find it along a quiet street near SM Ecoland. Tiny Tea Shop is actually a quaint little house decorated inside for comfort and relaxation. The light colors and dainty furnishings and decorations give you that tranquil & sleepy feeling like you just wanna lounge there to kill the time or read a book while sipping their ice cold milk tea. 

     CJ & I chose “seats” at the back area wherein there are low tables and cushions for us to sit or squat on. They also have these colorful square papers where one can write anything they like and have the freedom to post it on the walls surrounding the lounging area. I scanned the walls and read some interesting messages, doodles and illustrations left by customers. We even saw CJ’s classmates’ note representing CS4. He couldn’t help but join them so he wrote his name and taped it beside his friends’ notes. I laughed at how happy and childish he looked while doing it.

     CJ said we’ll be having dinner after relaxing at the tea house so we decided on buying only drinks. It was a shame though ‘cause I wanted to try their snacks. Maybe next time. Hehehe. I ordered Taro Milk Tea with rock salt & cheese, which is one of my fave flavors of milk tea, while CJ ordered Buko Pandan Milk Tea. While waiting for the order we thought of what to write on the papers in front of us. So we wrote each others “nicknames” in turns and see who can “artfully” do it better. I guess I won because he was annoyed with the outcome.

     When the drinks arrived, I got so excited that I tasted both! Yum! So refreshing and delectable! I finished mine quite fast. I made a mental note to visit the place some other time. So guys, if you want to check the place out, Tiny Tea Shop is located at Phase 1, 4th Street, House no. 82, Ecoland Subdivision, Quimpo Boulevard, Davao City.

Harry Potter will always be a part of my childhood & growing up. I feel like I was with Harry during his adventures or just his day to day life at Hogwarts. I learned a lot from this series & I’m forever thankful that I decided to read them. :“>

Trivia! My first Harry Potter book is Prisoner of Azkaban. XD

Waiting

      This area is very nostalgic. I have memories filled with waiting for the jeepney to take us to our destination for a school trip… waiting for someone to fetch me… meeting place among friends so we can go to our destination together. I waited alone or with different people.. with exes… I never thought I would wait here for you, CJ. After all, we never met at school. We never crossed paths while we were schoolmates and here I was, waiting for you to fetch me so we can go together to our destination.
