Tea Time

Following the 'when in Rome ...' philosophy, while the team completed their afternoon workout, the MNT bloggers decided to poke our heads in on the traditional English ritual of 'afternoon tea'. Both a formal and a social occasion typically served between 3-5 p.m., the light meal hosted in the hotel library consists of the following:
  • A selection of sandwiches filled with cucumber, cream cheese and chives, egg, mayonnaise and smoked Scottish salmon
  • Freshly baked scones served with Devonshire clotted cream and strawberry preserve
  • A selection of afternoon tea pastries
Turns out it's not as stuffy as it sounds, and we have a new fondness for fruitcake and scones. Oh, almost forgot. They served tea, too!
