Afternoon Tea
Afternoon tea at May Fair Kitchen in Mayfair, London, is considered down to the smallest detail. Charbonnel et Walker chocolates and Newby Teas await the table, accompanied by finger sandwiches of smoked salmon with Amalfi lemon cream cheese, and organic lemon-roasted corn-fed chicken with truffle mayonnaise. Warm buttermilk scones with Cornish clotted cream follow, before patisserie takes centre stage: chocolate hazelnut mousse with dulce de leche and Madagascan vanilla, finished with dangerously good Charbonnel et Walker chocolate truffles.
