The British didn't even know what tea was until they went to China and bought some tea. It was the Chinese who taught the British how to boil tea.

The Chinese ha the traditon of drinking tea with dim sum and Chinese pastry. Notice that the "dim sum" during the Ching dynasty were different than the "dim sum" we have today.

The British bought so much tea from China that they had to sell opium to China, to balance the trade.

Read your history books please.

The word "tea" was derived from "te", Chinese Hokkien dialect, spoken in Fujian Province.

Totally agree with you.
Tea came from China. Even the British agree to this.
Chinawares like tea cups and tea pots, also came from China.

Like you said, Royal Doulton is 山寨 products.

These people really need to learn more about their own Chinese culture, just as China is rising again.

The world "chai", of course was derived from "cha", Chinese Mandarin and Cantonese.

但係現今中國又有幾多人保持茗茶傳統？對茶具講究，會食你所講嘅點心同埋一變嘆茶？

Lots of people in China maintain our tea and snack food tradition.
This is why you need to learn more about our own Chinese culture and the rapid resurgence of the Chinese nation.

If you are a frog in the well, you will remain ignorant about our own culture. This why there are so many self-hating Chinese here, still clinging onto the culture of their British masters, thinking that their British masters culture is higher and better.

Just because you go British high tea, does not mean you become 高尚西人.

想扮做淑女吖? 想做高級西人?
