Nestled right on North Broadway in Tarrytown, New York, amid a plethora of ethnically diverse restaurants is the Silver Tips Tea Room, a small, simply furnished restaurant with the ability to offer an oasis of soothing comfort in the midst of a day’s hustle and bustle.

We actually entered as a group of eight women, and somehow our very accommodating hostess, Jacqueline, managed to re-arrange tables allowing us to sit together and chatter away to our hearts’ content. We were a bit too hungry for just tea and a treat, so we opted for the very tempting wraps accompanied, for some of us, by tea spritzers or, in my case, a delicious mug of iced green tea. On a hot day, this cool, refreshing drink was perfection.

I was so impressed by Jacqueline who initially arranged our seating, made sure she explained Silver Tips’ vast selection of teas as well as the variety of ways in which they are served, answered every question, laughed at the jokes, and tried in every way to make us enjoy our brief visit. She was successful in every way because we loved the Tea Room and the warmth it exudes.

Let me describe the wraps we selected from the diverse menu. I’d bet money they make your mouth water. Everyone loved the one she ordered.

Rangoon Wrap: Chicken, Shredded Cabbage, Mixed Greens, Sliced Tomatoes with a mouth-watering Peanut Sauce.
The Classic Wrap: Turkey with Shredded Cabbage, Tomatoes, grated Cheddar, with a Sour Cream spread seasoned with Olives, Cilantro & herbs.
Sorbonne Wrap: Lean Ham or Turkey, Mixed Greens, Sliced Tomatoes with a Honey Mustard Vinaigrette.

If you are a tea “aficionado,” there are 140 possibilities! Start at Silver Tips’ delightful website where you can learn all about teas, where they come from, how to brew them successfully, and sundry other information. You can even shop online.

If you are in the Tarrytown vicinity, this is a pleasant place to tarry.
