Afternoon tea, a tradition which started in the 1940s, is considered as a real meal itself and is composed of three parts (represented by the three tiers): savory sandwiches (finger sandwiches), scones (with butter or clotted cream and fruit jam) and cakes/sweet pastries.
Most afternoon teas come with an unlimited supply of tea but some offer a twist and offer alcoholic drinks such as champagne or fancy cocktails.
Made with fresh and quality products, it is an incredible meal and a very nice time to share with your friends. Take your time, relax and enjoy this few hours of pure refinement!
