When I left Glasgow, the one thing that absolutely threw me for a loop was the difference in tea service. If a cafe has tea bags, at least make sure the water for the tea is damn near boiling (or whatever water temp is appropriate for the tea type.) Finally found a place here in Chicago which serves a full out tea service for $4 which includes water, tea, lemon, biscuits, cream, and sugar.
