Teany Cafe, a tea and vegan food shop in New York founded by Moby and his then girlfriend Kelly Tisdale, experienced a fire this weekend.
Although no one was hurt, the store was destroyed, and it’s not sure whether or not Kelly will rebuild and reopen.
On his Myspace, Moby blogged:
“I believe that teany the cafe might, alas, be no more.”
“Yesterday there was a fire (no one was hurt, as far as I know), and teany was destroyed.”
“I need to ask kelly if she’s going to re-build it, and as soon as she says ‘yay’ or ‘nay’ I’ll let you know.”
“I’m really glad no one was hurt, and if anyone has pictures of teany post-fire I’d love to see them (as I’m in germany as I write this, and can’t go round to see the damage).”
Teany started off as both a tea and food shop when Kelly and Moby opened it. Later, Teany became more of a hub for tea when Kelly took over most of the business decisions, although it still had a variety of vegan entrees on the menu.
Moby once remarked that Teany was so great because meat eaters were just as happy with the faux selections as vegetarians.
