With its deep red, graphic wallpaper, mahogany furnishings, and chevron flooring, this Highland Park tea shop-meets-art-and-performance-space owned by Billy Corgan (yep, that Billy Corgan) conjures up deco-era Shanghai. It’s a dramatic style that complements the shop’s curated selection of bold teas, like oak barrel-aged keemun and orchid-infused oolong. With many varieties selling for upwards of $30 per bag, Zuzu’s isn’t cheap. But we’re not talking Lipton’s here; rather, Corgan works with the experts at Rare Tea Cellar to offer super high-quality products, some of them unique to his shop.
