Afternoon tea at the Savoy

After living here for almost 2 years I finally had proper British afternoon tea.   I went to the Savoy with a friend and it was a great time enjoying both the food and the atmosphere. We were there for about 3 hours and included the following

First serving:

Champagne

Scones with clotted cream, homemade jam and lemon custard

Tea sandwiches (the little sandwiches with the crust cut off)

Second serving:

Tea – I selected the Savoy Afternoon tea blend

Selection of pastries

Third serving:

Tea – Moroccan Mint

Victoria sponge cake

Chocolate fudge cake

Some sort of fruit cake (which I didn’t try)

By the end I was stuffed and on an incredible sugar high.  It is definitely not something I would do frequently but it was a fun experience. It wasn’t cheap either at £54 per person.
