Atarax (hydroxyzine) for Anxiety: I take this along with Lexapro… I was having such hard times falling asleep due to nine million things going on through the day … then the anxiety kicked in…sometimes I would be up for hours while everyone is sound to sleep…When I started taking this I fall asleep within thirty mins and usually sleep sound. It is not addicting… and good price for the good things the meds do

Actually, true ginseng oolong tea should be simply a blend of oolong leaves with ginseng slices. What it seems like you have is an odd artificially flavored and sweetened (aspartane? nutrisweet? saccharin?) powder that is then used to coat rather low grade oolong leaves.

I’ve had the stuff before and find it icky and artificial. It’s not ginseng nor very good quality tea either.

Overall, I think that Vital Tea Leaf place sells very bad tea for very high prices – and all that health benefit stuff should really get the FDA to raise an eyebrow. Beware what you drink is what I would say.

Oh that sounds good! This one is very… authentic, if that means anything. I have been going to the Imperial Tea Room on Powell- so this is kind of a scrappy one, next to the milk tea place.

I stumbled upon a new (to me) tea venue up on the terrace level above Yueba Buena Gardens – and dang! I can’t remember the name!!

But it’s up there where Cafe in the Clouds used to be, and it looks fabulous (they have little dishes of tea ingredients to help you discern the subtle flavors you’re tasting, like you see at wine tasting houses) AND they sport a reasonable lunch menu.

Ahhh, if only you worked in SoMa… your commute would be just one transit line, AND I’d talk you into a long tea-sampling lunch hour…..
