Tea Time - Revolution

Last night I had planned to have dinner with a friend at Tyler's. The Durham Bulls game was cancelled due to rain, which resulted in an overflow crowd in and around the American Tobacco Campus. We opted to avoid the throng of disappointed Bulls fans and headed to P.F. Chang instead. Past the hungry stage, we chose vegetable dumplings and spring rolls to start. For our main course we shared grilled lemon prawns with garlic glass noodles and cashew chicken. The result was two happy campers. Done with dinner, but no quite ready to end the night, we headed downtown for a nightcap. Not sure of closing times, we were disappointed by a few places that closed prior to midnight. We ended our journey at Revolution where we were told, "we will not close until you are done". The perfect answer for two night owls. With a cool rainy night on tap, we decided to try the tea service. Can I just say... it was marvelous! We rested on the cozy, white leather sofa in the front window of the restaurant and listened to the rain as we enjoyed our pomegranate and green teas. What a way to end a near perfect day. www.revolutionrestaurant.com
