New Tea shop

I planned to have a lunch with my friend at "Joe Shanghai New York" this afternoon, and I met her in front of the restrurant 13:30 PM. Since the resturant has opened, I have been thinking to have a meal there. We thought we could have a lunch there without waiting in a line, but a woman at the resturant told us we have to wait at least 40 min. I really don't like to waste my time for waiting something.
We gave up to eat there and left. We had "Omu-rice(Omelet Rice) instead.

Few weeks ago, I could know the new tea shop "Betjeman & Barton" opened at Marunouchi, Tokyo while I was reading the magazine. It's from France. The magazine says " At last, No.1 French tea shop openes in Japan!" I just feel Japanse likes the words, "No.1 in XXX county", "Famous", " So popular/boom in XXX country" I guess I'm one of them. I usually doubt the words, but I still wanna try the thing at least one time.

I asked her to go to the shop after the lunch. The magazine says the shop has a "Salon de thé", so we thought we could drink a tea there....... Yes, there is the table and chairs...but there is no space for drinking a tea inside. Well, we found three tables outside... Outdide?!!  Fortunately, the weather was really nice today, so we decided to take a rest at outside "Salon de thé" (hahaha...) Tea was OK, but I don't think I will go back there just for drinking a (paper)cup of tea.


After we had the lunch and tea, we went to shopping and walked a lot. Before we go home, we took a rest again. I tooke her to "Joël Durand." She, of course, ordered a chocolate parfait, and I ordered the orange chocolate ice cream this time. The ice cream was good, but I like the parfait more. :)
