The whole dim sum journey would not have been complete without mentioning the tea session. We were seated by the enchanting moss garden in the centre court of Bao Teck Tea House with sunlight streaming in. We had a taste of the first generation Liu Bao Tea (Reserve year of 2018). The tea preparation and ritual itself was therapeutic and fascinating. We loved the mellow bitter taste of the tea, fragrant with a hint of bitterness towards the end.
Originally known as Ming Xiang Tai Pastry Shop, this laid the foundation for Bao Teck Tea House which was established in 2020. The memorial tea house was named after the owner Au Meng Kit’s father, Au Chee Teck, whose nickname was “Bao Teck”.
The tea house’s tagline of “Good time with you” holds a deeper meaning as it also infers to the relationship between father and son, and the fond memories of the time spent together.
