While the world seemingly has been taken over by coffee-lovers, there is a strong majority of chaivinists out there that loves sipping on some piping hot adrak waali chai. Luckily, we no longer just have to drink tea but can eat it too. So the next time you’re out, why not replace the usual cup with a bite of one of these tea-infused dishes?
Time For Some PositiviTEA: 6 Dishes To Try At Mumbai Restaurants If You're Obsessed With Chai
Tea Leaf Salad @ Burma Burma
A tea leaf salad? Well, why not. Burma Burma serves a lean mean salad machine in the form of this signature dish of theirs. The tea leaves in themselves are a bit bitter, and so they add 16 more ingredients to this including two types of lettuce, a few varieties of tomatoes, a handful of nuts, jalapenos and more. Sounds refreshing to us.

Green Tea Zen Forest @ The Fatty Bao
This one's quite a hit at the restaurant. Its a concoction of some black sesame sponge, green tea moss, beetroot and black pepper sorbet, sesame nougatine, choco twigs and (well) microgreens too. The green tea zen forest is a combination of healthy and tasty.

40-Layered Green Tea Cake, Yuuka
This delicate dish has rum-soaked raisins in it, along with the matcha dust. And while this cake may sound like the most heavy thing to eat, it actually is one of the lightest things on Yuuka's menu. Oh and you could also try their green tea tiramisu.
