Every tea shop has its own share of history just like Mallam Sile's tea shop. There are several reasons why it became so popular and one of them is that the shop offers all kinds of beverages. To name some, they have the cocoa drink, regular black tea, Japanese green tea and instant coffee. Furthermore, it's food taste is really amazing. Many customers thank the owners for liberating them from their customary tea shack. Another one would be the wide variety of food selections they serve aside from their excellent tea. For instance, they have meat pies, custard, Tom Brown, important porridge, as well as brown bread, which is not offered by other shops in the neighborhood.
