I suspect you mean The Tea Centre, which is good (and thanks to Kathy
for mentioning Taka Tea Garden as well). I have reasonably convenient
access to both stores, so don't need their online ordering capacity.
I'd certainly recommend them for people who can't get to the stores.

Just saying, though, it would be nice to take advantage of online
stores in other countries to try particular teas that aren't available
locally, or to try some of the teas that are mentioned in this
newsgroup.
