| Other Fare Osondu’s Tea Room also has a great wine list and offers tastings on occasion. Though we enjoy all of the wines that we offer our customers, we are proudest of our very fine North Carolina selections. Melissa, our wine expert, currently manages the Tea Room. She will help to guide you to a wine that you will thoroughly enjoy. In addition, her years of food service experience are quite evident in the selections of both wines and food. The menu is primarily light vegetarian and always fresh. Cheese and fruits from the local farmer’s market accentuate Osondu’s commitment to local foods. |
Greening Up Osondu Books and Tea makes every effort to be a green retailer. In addition to buying fine quality, mostly local and organic wine and produce and thereby support our local independent businesses and decrease carbon emissions, almost all to-go products are biodegradable, made from either corn or sugar cane. Come In and Stay Awhile - Books, tea, and wine. What combination could be better? Come in, pick a good book and relax with a steaming brew or a glass of fine wine. Your adventure is waiting. Your Zen is waiting. We’ll see you soon. |
