Breakfast At Sulimay's

The diner where I serve the tea is famous for more than great pancakes. There is a trio of music critics who you might be interested in watching, so take a gander.

Crafters @ An American Tea

To all the crafters out there, if you are free on Sunday afternoons, come by and bring your work. I am a crocheter but all are welcomed. You don't have to buy any thing but if you do there will be a 10% discount.

An American Tea & Bake shop

Every Sunday I serve afternoon tea at Sulimay's, a diner in the Fishtown section of Philadelphia. In the morning I have a bake sale outside the diner. The idea came about because I always wanted my own business and I got tired of having my life decided by other people. Baking is something I've always loved to do, so this seemed like a good idea. And so far it has been.

I call it An American Tea because I don't want people thinking they will find a fancy English style tea. My tea is an american take on afternoon tea. Here is a copy of my menu.




An American Tea at Sulimay’s
Berks St. & Girard Ave.
Philadelphia, PA 19125


Full Tea …… $12.00
Pot of tea, two tea sandwiches, slice of tea bread, two mini cupcakes,
two mini scones, 2 cookies


Light tea ….. $8.00
Pot of tea, two mini scones , two tea breads or two mini cupcakes



Ala Carte

Pot of tea $2.00 Iced tea $2.00

Shrubs $2.00

Scone $3.00 Tea Bread $3.00

Cupcakes $3.00 Cookies $3.00

Tea Sandwiches $3.00


Since I was doing a lot of baking for the Tea, it seemed like a good idea to have the bake sale. The bake sale is from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm. Then I go inside to get ready for the Tea, which is from 3:00 till 6:00.
