Shin Cup on the Thames in London
I thought this sub might appreciate the giant Shin Ramyun on the Thames.

I travel a lot and I’ve become very interested in the in room tea selection that hotels around the world offer.
The first photo is some of those teas (yes the jars are full too).
Typically the best and most eclectic in room teas are in the UK where there are often 4+ varieties, but I recently stayed on a small island in Thailand and the hotel there offered SARO which are some incredible bagged lotus teas paired with different teas and tisanes. Extremely expensive for bagged tea but one I genuinely recommend for tea lovers looking for something a little different.
Another good hotel tea are those at the Rosewood hotels (green jar) which always have a special blend from local suppliers alongside Nespresso capsules of local flavours (lemongrass in Thailand).
I only buy loose leaf at home but I love these bags as they represent a world of preferences in tea, and as well as finding the differences captivating enough to document obsessively (maybe I should blog them), I love to revisit my favorite hotels via these selections (where unique).
Both looking for my original (taken) pair and a replacement. If you have these, anywhere in the world, please contact me — black and gold only.
They’re the second image in the photo with one black arm and one gold coloured arm but with UV sunglasses lenses which I believe may be quite rare for this pair. I’ll consider any condition.
My original pair were taken from the White Swan in Limehouse, London on Saturday 21 June.
They have immense sentimental value to me. They were a gift six years ago from someone who is no longer with me (yes I’m an idiot). So if you do have them please contact me — no questions asked (reward offered).
