What is the importance of afternoon tea to all of us in Britain…
There has to be more than cream to afternoon tea at chic hotels to make it the popular phenomenon that it is. It doesn’t seem to matter where you’re from or how old you are, the prospect of an extra meal between lunch and dinner featuring impossibly small sandwiches and disproportionately large scones, is universal.
I think one of the reasons for it, is the wide possibilities for interpretation and innovation that this classic British institution allows even in modern chic hotels. Not to mention regional traditions that always provide healthy heated debate. Do you put the cream on first, or the jam? It is a question that has divided families and friends.
Cake Choice
Whatever your cakey preference, it may well dictate the destination that you choose. After all, your afternoon tea style says a lot about your personality as well as that of those providing it. At a classically beautiful hotel a traditional approach of sandwiches and scones is exactly what you are looking for.
Others who do great justice to the customary variation on afternoon tea, and even throw in a log fire for good measure include hotels in the Lake District, and the Cotswolds in Gloucestershire. At these types of hotels you will also obviously benefit from the hearty appetite generated from a bracing walk in the local area – it’s fine, all those hills nullify any calories you may or may not have been concerned about.
