Nobody answered my question if it was Cha or ChaYe shoppe. According
to Google by a 3 to 1 vote it is ChaYe ShangDian. Commercially ChaYe
is used over Cha. It remains to be seen how ChaYe is used in
conversation. I'll find those with Google when I get around to it. I
don't want to be told as a laowai to only use Cha. My local tea
shoppe actually has the word TeaLeaves in the name run by a British
expatriate.

Good luck!
I won't sign the petition, though.
