I love it but not done a proper one for ages. Have you had one recently? You are allowed to describe it and turn me green with envy

I discovered a lovely new cafe/patisserie recently and though I haf not had one I saw other people having one and looked amazing. Just how it should be, not those cut down versions you get sometimes. I think I am going to book myself in for one.

Hotel Gotham in Manchester know how to make an afternoon tea special, the pianist playing in the corner, the waiter producing a box of tea leaves for you to smell before you choose, the waiter popping the napkin over your knee. Lovely ambience. The food was nice as well

There is and had it a few times both in Harrogate and York and even in Ilkley but not for a while. It's nice to have things like that in different settings. It's not just about the cake you know

Our most recent was at a very posh hotel nearby. We took my mum and dad. A uniformed doorman guided us in, we were seated on plush sofas in one of a few small lounge areas and served with our choice of tea blend, finger sandwiches, warm scones sprinkled with icing sugar with jam and cream and a selection of tiny but exquisite cakes.

Yes and I'm so happy we did it. My mum cried when she saw the location.
