Spice Island Tea House announces end of 28-year run in Oakland on social media

PITTSBURGH — Spice Island Tea House, which debuted a menu of Burmese, Malaysian, Indonesian as well as Thai specialties out of a modest Oakland storefront in the mid-1990s and which has drawn in diners ever since, announced it is closing.
