the 'tea'. they rose to the challenge of producing me a dairy/egg/wheat free tea very well! - mine is the dinner plate at the front of this shot. i also got a fruit bowl to start and a separate dessert plate. we were very glad when we heard the people next to us ask for a doggy bag - i ended up getting 3 meals out of it!


sascha drinking tea! this was the first cup of tea i'd ever seen sascha drink and actually he ended up drinking about 6 cups! he's started to make a habit of it but his taste is a little expensive - he's only drink the empress' special exclusive blend. [surprise surprise!]
