In a city defined by superlatives—largest metro area in the United States, most populous city in the world, most linguistically diverse, to name a few—New York City is also considered to be the cultural, financial, and medical capital of the world. It’s no surprise that the hype extends to its food scene as well, where you can enjoy every cuisine imaginable in over 10,000 restaurants and travel on a gastronomic tour of the world without ever leaving the city. This also applies to its tea venues, with quirky, elegant, and whimsical spots to enjoy in neighborhoods stretching from Midtown Manhattan to Greenwich Village and Gramercy Park.
