[Food in Books] The Screaming Staircase (Lockwood & Co. #1) - Jonathan Stroud

  • Ch. 2
    • Pitkin Brothers' tea
      When you go out hunting wicked spirits, it’s the simple things that matter most. The silvered point of your rapier flashing in the dark; the iron filings scattered on the floor; the sealed canisters of best Greek Fire, ready as a last resort . . . But tea bags, brown and fresh and plenty of them, and made (for preference) by Pitkin Brothers of Bond Street, are perhaps the simplest and best of all.
