Summary: Teatime in the Northwest
Review: Sharon and Ken Foster-Lewis do a wonderful job describing the atmosphere, decor and foods at various tea establishments within Oregon, Washington, British Columbia and even Hawaii. Their write-ups on each tea room are so thorough that you will be able to determine where to partake in the delights of sipping tea and tasting treats. "Teatime in the Northwest" goes beyond just listing tea rooms in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, it gives some tea history, describes various types of tea and most importantly, how to prepare the perfect cup of tea. Approximately 100 pages of the book are filled with mouthwatering recipes for tea sandwiches, scones, biscuits, breads, cookies, cakes, tarts and so on. Scattered throughout the book are whimsical or tranquil quotes from famous people sharing their teatime experiences. I'm looking forward to Ken and Sharon's newest edition of "Teatime in the Northwest" which I hear is currently in print and will be available soon.
