I was blown away by their creative tea-leaf smelling design! We ordered 肉桂香茶 and 芝兰香茶, and I'm obsessed with the aroma of the latter. The dessert pairing was great too! The boss was super patient in sharing about Teochew culture.

People staying this area is so lucky to have this gem. Tea is refreshing. A nice way to try all sorts of Dancong teochew tea. We tried the mooncake too. Nice!

The interior is tastefully designed with a peaceful, calming ambience that makes it a great spot to relax. The drinks were enjoyable, and while the cake was decent, it didn’t stand out. A thoughtful touch was being allowed to take the small teapot home as a souvenir — a charming and memorable gesture. The staff were friendly and prompt with service — kudos to them for their professionalism. Overall, a pleasant experience. Recommended!

It is a nice quaint tea shop parked along the stretch of the I12 junction Greeted by the owner himself to tell us of an amazing tea experience coming our way! Ordered the muah Chee and the orchid vanilla cold tea! And boy were we not disappointed! This was one of the best tea experiences we ever had! The tea was both fresh and refreshing! Each sip had an aftertaste that was very rare and very sweet for a drink that didn’t add much shaven Every sip with their special straw had us wanting for more! Their hand made muah chee was so smooth and chewy! It was one of, if not the best bites of muah chee I have ever had! Their sesame and peanut filling were very rich and light! Each bite has us wanting to drink the tea, and it was a perfect match! The owner was very kind and knowledgeable and shared with us the tea experience and the history of the Dan Cong tea! I will highly recommend anyone and everyone to come down and give this tea house a try! Truly an amazing experience to enjoy such premium tea and amazing quality hand made food for affordable prices!

I first came across Lim Cha a few months ago and immediately shared it with my friend, saying I had to try it because it looked so unique. Today, I finally made my way there, and the whole experience was nothing short of delightful. The tea arrived in a petite teapot elegantly perched on the cup lid, with wisps of smoke curling out – an eye-catching presentation that’s absolutely Instagram and TikTok worthy. The accompanying snacks were a pleasant surprise: light, refreshing, and not overly sweet, making them the perfect complement to the drinks. What impressed me most, though, was the quality of the tea. I ordered the Longan Yashi Xiang, which was smooth, aromatic, and left a gentle longan aftertaste. My friend had the Hawthorn Guava Yashi Xiang, which was just as refreshing and delicious. The brews were balanced – rich yet not overpowering, clearly crafted with skill and care. I’m already looking forward to returning and exploring more of their tea creations soon.
