I visited Zhi Tea 12-11-11 @ 3:16pm
Website: http://zhitea.com/
Address: 4607 Bolm Rd., Austin, TX 78702
It was a very sharp turn to get to the right street, I passed it once and ended up having to circle back to it. There was limited parking, but the place was not very full. By the end of my visit there were 4 other patrons, 3 of which stayed with for here drinks.
One woman, the blender, was taking care of the front of the store. She was very knowledgeable and helpful with telling me about the teas and helping me select one to have.
The walls were covered with shelves of tea, and plenty of sampler sizes.
There were 4 tables, and 1 couch corner.
Average experience for a tea shop, but cozy and nice. I will gladly go back to visit next time I am in Austin.

You made me curious about this place, but then again I guess I’m always curious about tea rooms 🙂
Thanks for sharing the link. When I looked at their website I saw they have some nice pics up on their site. If anyone’s interested the link is here:

What was average in this tea shop/tea room?

It served tea, had lots of tea, had small snacks, nothing “above and beyond” – above and beyond to me is samovar excellent tea, excellent food, and knowledge of tea.
