Tea anyone?

9 x 12 inches - Oil on Belgian linen - SOLD

I revisited an old favourite for a customer in Bermuda. This battered old cast iron kettle was given to me by an old couple who ran a tiny restaurant in Yokohama where I used to eat about three times a week for many years. Only nine people at a time could fit into the L-shaped room under a railway arch and the food was great (cooked right in front of you and I would chat with them as they prepared my food).

    OK Paul, I'm dying for this one! I love the textures, I love everything on it (and I love the story behind it too :)
    (Now don't be mean and don't laugh out of my feelings :)
    Best regards,
    Carolina
