I was staying at a homestay in Longwu Tea Village when I discovered Lan Zhilian's afternoon tea.
The service was warm and attentive, and tea was frequently refilled during the afternoon tea time.
The tea room is located inside the Lan Zhilian Chinese Restaurant, with sliding doors in Tang and Song dynasty style.
Incense curls from the burner, and copper tea saucers add to the atmosphere.
The melon seeds are crispy and fragrant, with a subtle lingering taste.
The peanuts are also nice, roasted to perfection.
γJiuqu Hongmei (Nine-Bend Red Plum) teaγ:
The dry tea leaves are hook-shaped, slender and fine.
Rich plum blossom aroma combined with a sweet, refreshing taste.
When aged, the tea liquor develops a strong dark plum fruit flavor, becoming even more mellow and sweet.
γHandmade Cookiesγ:
Beautifully shaped, pure flavor, with a rich milky taste.
The restaurant environment is elegantly decorated, with private rooms ideal for family gatherings and hosting guests.

Hubin Intime in77 District D is bustling with activity.
The restaurants are open-plan, and Xiabu Xiabu Mini Hotpot is on the left side.
The decor is a refined Chinese style, grand yet subtly elegant.
The restaurant is spacious, with well-spaced tables that ensure comfort and privacy.
In the center hall, there's an arc-shaped decorative cabinet and uniquely styled Chinese lamps.
The restaurant's highlight is one small pot per person.
Thinly sliced grassland lamb rolls, marbled and tempting, taste fresh, tender, and delicious.
Large prawns are skewered on bamboo sticks and placed on crushed ice;
they're fresh, large, and plump.
You can string them with chopsticks and put them in the small pot.
Dipped in sauce, they're even better: fresh, thick, full, and pleasantly chewy.
γClassic Shrimp Pasteγ
The shrimp paste is presented adorably in a cone-shaped plastic bag.
When cooked, it floats to the surface, savory and fragrant, bouncy and wonderfully chewy.
Highlight one: There's a robot that delivers dishes,
adding a modern, trendy touch to this forward-thinking restaurant.
Highlight two: The restaurant also has a hand-shaken tea bar.
γStrawberry Snow-Capped Teaγ
Very photogenic β a large handle glass with a snow cap topping, pink liquid visible through the glass.
A huge strawberry snow-capped tea, the milk cap is smooth and delicate,
with strands of sweet, fresh strawberry flavor.
Its icy coolness perfectly relieves the heat from the hotpot.

If you prefer tea, go for the snow-capped hand-shaken version, which has a lighter taste with tea fragrance and a sweet aftertaste.
It also has that silky smooth milk cap.

Small, delicate square tofu pieces with cod inside.
Once cooked, they release a wonderful aroma and have a delightfully chewy texture β a pleasant surprise.

Beautifully red and tempting, neatly arranged on the plate, fresh and appealing.
After a quick dip in the pot, it's tender, juicy, and delicious.
