ok - it wasn't actually me who went for afternoon tea at Claridges, it was the London son. But I'm sure you'll be as interested to hear what it was like, as I was. He was given this treat as a Christmas present and went all dressed up in suit and tie.
His post visit report stated that it was "really good". Apparently he polished off all the neat little sandwiches so fast that another tray was immediately delivered.
The menu read as follows:
A selection of sandwiches:
Hickory smoked Daylesford organic chicken with spring onion and honey mayonnaise on granary bread
Scottish oak smoked salmon with cream cheese and capers on rye bread
Dorrington ham with watercress, English mustard and redcurrant butter on milk bread
Organic egg mayonnaise with tomato and mustard cress on brown bread
Organic cucumber and rocket with cream cheese on onion bread
*
Freshly baked raisin and apple scones with Devonshire clotted cream and Marco Polo jelly
*
A selection of French pastries
*
not bad for £31!!
