Default I had no idea tea was so trendy

I ate dinner at Danny Ng's restaurant in NYC not long ago (which incidentally
is highly recommended), and when I asked about tea was told they served
Bo Nay. I said that I didn't like pu erh and wondered if we could get a
red tea, but was told that bo nay was different than pu erh. And the tea
was indeed a mid-grade pu erh. Not to my taste although you might want to
try it (and you should definitely try the handmade noodles).
