As you might imagine, The Potted Geranium’s owner, Laura Kanitra and her staff are thrilled to see their tea house in print.
“It is really fantastic to have a prestigious magazine like Southern Living recognize our efforts to create a unique tea experience,” says Kanitra.
Laura operates the tea house with the assistance of a top quality wait staff and formally trained pastry chef, Rebecca Wells. Their work at the Potted Geranium is truly a labor of love for all of the staff.
“The ladies and I are excited to have been included in the magazine. The staff at the Potted Geranium works so hard to be the best. It is really a shared honor for us all!”
The Potted Geranium Tea Parlor opened for business in Downtown Greensboro in January 2009. Laura and her husband Paul spent the year and a half prior to opening the tea house overseeing a painstaking restoration of the beautiful antebellum home and grounds on Greene Street.
“Bringing this beautiful house back to life as a top tier tea room has truly been a dream come true,” says Laura.
Laura’s attention to detail is apparent, not just in the beautiful setting and ambiance of the tea house, but also in the tea service itself. A perfectly brewed pot of tea is served with every lunch selection, and Chef Rebecca’s fresh-made quiches and delectable pastries are a treat to be savored.
