cafe next to Martsa's on Elm Street?

The storefront next to Martsa's on Elm Street, which I think used to be a hair salon, is now some sort of café. Has anyone here tried it yet?

I had the Tibetan tea at Martsa's once - never again. They put butter in it (I think), plus some other seasonings, and what it tasted like to me was melted butter with a hint of tea :( Most unpleasant - and I like butter.

i've tasted it at martsa's also. they do put butter in it, and also salt. i think it's disgusting, but i'm not tibetan. i didn't have a bad experience though, b/c we asked the waiter beforehand to describe it and he did warn us and even brought us a little sample, which we then decided not to purchase.

if you ask, they're very friendly and informative.

Horrified just because something tasted like beef or because she was worried it actually contained beef? Because while they do use dairy in it (I ask about these things), there's no meat. :)

IME, Tibetan flavors in general aren't my favorite, but one of the things I like about that place in general is that they don't seem to quibble over authenticity, and therefore taste better. Perhaps the tea is authentic.

it tasted like Chicken Broth with milk. And I was horrified because tea shouldn't taste like chicken broth with milk—it should taste like tea.

On all other accounts, however, the cafe is quite lovely.
