Laura from Shopify samples some tea.
We get a lot of perks at Shopify: all the cereal we can eat, all the pop, filtered water and espresso we can drink, bagel Wednesday, free catered lunches, gym memberships and so on. It’s a damned fine place to work, chock-full of smart, ambitious, energetic people and business is going like gangbusters. If you’re in Toronto and interested in working at Shopify, you’ll want to catch me at the Ruby Job Fair taking place on Friday, February 10th at Unspace’s office.
Today was Fajita Friday, and as an added bonus, a representative from the local tea shop, The Tea Party showed up and gave a tea-brewing seminar followed by a big tea-tasting session. If you’re ever in the ByWard Market area and are looking for a good liquid pick-me-up, you should drop by the Tea Party: they’ve got an impressive selection of teas, their snacks are quite tasty as well and it’s a great place to sit back and relax.
Liana, Serena, Theresa and Laura pick out their teas.

If you’re looking for teas that are more to Asian tastes, try Cha Yi at 61 Rue Eddy in Hull (http://chayi.ca). I’m so glad to find a decent pu eh tea in Ottawa …. finally! Cha Ya is set up for gong fu service (awesome!), chinese tea pots and French press.
Cha Yi is close to the Chaudieres (Eddy St) Bridge. It’s two blocks north of Tache/Laurier.
LOL, “Pu eh” is what happens when a Canadian types “pu er” on a Friday afternoon!
