Editorial Review for The Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse – by Bryce Edmonds
In Short
In 1987, the mayor of Boulder's new sister city Dushanbe, Tajikistan, decided to cement the relationship with a teahouse. More than 40 Tajik craftspeople carved and hand-painted the stunning ceiling, tables, stools, columns and exterior panels. The teahouse offers more than 50 teas, but there's also a dining menu featuring many Far East and Central Asian items such as Indian samosas with pineapple and red pepper chutney. Other options include Mediterranean pizza and Thai coconut curry.

It was my Grandaughter's 10th birthday. We've been preparing afternoon tea and serving it every time I visit since she was 6 years old. Going OUT for Afternoon Tea was suppose to be special. The first impressions were the cement floors (not good). The tables were nice and the selection of tea adequate. It was noisy, there was no quiet background music and we had to ask for more tea sandwiches. There was champagne for me but no sparkling cider for my grandaughter. Our waiter was something of a nervous nelly (I think too many tables to serve). My grandaughter's review, "I think we do a better job of Afternoon Tea at home." I've attended Afternoon Tea in England, Canada and other cities in the US. Your restaurant owners should attend other Afternoon Tea experiences to pick up some valuable pointers. Afternoon Tea is much more than white table cloths and serving tea.
Pros: Interesting history and architecture, adequate selection of tea
Cons: cement floors (rugs would help) noisy, no quiet background music, no china tea cups, tea sandwiches & deserts were slight

I have only eaten at the tea house for breakfast and I must say it was wonderful. The selection of teas are amazing and the imported decorations (heck the whole building) is a wonder to take in while sipping your favorite selection. You if go at the right time you can walk right out to the farmer's market. It is a great Boulder experience :)
Pros: Decorations, selections of teas
Cons: Limited menu
