Afternoon Tea at the Hilton Green Park

It's Afternoon Tea Week and what better way to celebrate than to have afternoon tea. I had a wee look on www.afternoontea.co.uk and found an incredible deal for Afternoon Tea at the Tiger Brasserie at the Hilton Green Park. 41 quid for two. Including champagne.

So my mum and I dodged a few downpours and the Prudential Ride London cyclists and ventured over to Green Park.

We were welcomed by very friendly staff who showed us to our table and explained all we needed to know about the different teas. They also said we could try as many flavours as we wanted to, but we didn't manage ore than two each. My bladder only holds as much as two pots.

As we sipped our champagne, the étagère was brought out, which carried four different finger sandwiches. There was salmon, chicken, egg salad and the always present cucumber and cream cheese. There were plain scones and fruit scones and as for the sweeties there was a carrot cake, a brownie, a macaroon, elder-flower jelly and a fruity meringue.

We tucked right in and even though it wasn't anything I hadn't had before, we had a delightful time. But for 41 for afternoon tea for two including champagne, what's not to like?
