Thanks for stopping to read mmm-yoso!!!. Kirk has been posting a lot lately and is taking a break from blogging to catch up with things. Cathy is writing today.
There have been a few posts here about Tea Station: briefly mentioned in 2007 then I finally wrote a post in 2011, 2012, third post in 2013, and most recently in 2016, a 'regular' stop for The Mister and myself when we are in the area.
You can walk in and order 'to go', or step to the right, find a table and seat yourself. Menus are delivered quickly. We always order a pot of tea which is brewed to order. This visit, it was Pu-Erh (a smoky black tea with camomile) ($6.25). Brisk, refreshing and so very good.
There are several menu choices which you can order as a "Set" (rice plus a trio of sides of the day) for an additional $5. This day, the order was the Garlic Wing Set ($11.75). The wings-crispy and garlic-y skin, meaty and moist wings. As always, a quality steamed rice. The Set was a wonderful potato salad, a toothsome cooked cabbage sort-of-slaw and a meaty curry with tofu. Quite a lot of food.
The beef dumpling soup ($13.75) was served in a deep bowl, topped with preserved vegetables.
The soup was also filled with vegetables and the dumplings (ten) had a definite tea infusion/flavor.
Always tasty and satisfying food and tea here, with a wide variety of menu selections.

We like it here at lunchtime and trying different hot teas to go with a meal. The menu has plenty of snacks and varied (sweet) beverages. It is an international chain, but only there locations in San Diego, so still fairly unique to us.
The wings were very good, cc.
