Thats how I ended up at Grand Tea. Stopped by late morning and was totally enamored with this small tea shop. It's like you never can see everything first time around. While looking for a matcha bowl. I found a wonderful 16oz teapot. The wonderful lady that worked there was pleasant and very helpful. I looked at teas that were available and decided on the 13 year old Da Hong Pao black tea. Price was $10 an ounce. I asked her what was her favorite tea was? And she replied the same tea. She filled a bag with tea leaves and wrapped my new tea pot. What I found out is you can get approximately 6 to 10 steeps on these tea leaves. Surprisingly by changing diet and adding black tea to my diet. My arthritis has subsided for now. I am not saying this tea was the cure. But it did contribute to more peace and serenity. The black tea has attributes of a soothing nature. Also this black tea has less caffeine than other fresh tea leaves. Will definitely be back when my tea supply runs low.

They have several…read morepu-erh teas from young to vintage aged; black teas, some of which I cannot get enough of; green teas I usually do not drink, because I over steep them; and Oolong teas which fit nicely between the black and green teas and one I cannot get enough of. There is so much more than tea available in this crowded shop. I only avail myself of the tea, but the family proprietors have always been most helpful, engaging and educational regarding the teas and even the cultural events, such as the Chinese New Year. It's a challenge in a shop that can be very busy at times and crowded in the narrow aisles with product nearby and patrons trying to squeeze by each other without knocking anything over. Somehow, I don't mind all this and it adds charm to the shop. Some of the teas are rare finds and especially with the vintage Pu-erh teas. I still have one Pu-erh tea from 1993! It's drinking so smoothly and no sugar or honey is required. I have been there several times over the past seven years or so and they remember me now. The tea does not come cheaply, but this is quality tea, vintage tea, and unique teas you will not find everywhere, sourced by the family from China through their own acquisitions. Authentic, and you will not forget the experience and taste. 4.3 stars!

But I had lost my St. Dymphna medal the previous day. Yes, they had a display card with little aluminum saint medals. They also had a sterling silver St. Dymphna for $9.00, which isn't too bad. (St. Dymphna is the patron saint of the mentally ill.) The aluminum were only a dollar. "Make that one--no, two," I said. What struck me most when we first walked in were the "holy goalie" statues--all sorts of plaster and resin saints standing in arches. Fabulous Finds will be worth getting back to; oh, and my other reflection was that Catholicism is the most pagan religion of them all. Graven images, my foot.

This isn't a place to come for large items or furniture, but their selection of smaller items is fantastic. Every time I've been in, I've found lots of great items at low prices, compared to what they would go for online or in bigger cities. I especially like mid-century kitchen items, glassware, and decor, which I've always found plenty of. The owner and all of the staff that I've every met are friendly and helpful. Just know that they are cash only, so come prepared to buy lots of treasures!
