Afternoon Tea in Bloom

To celebrate the RHS Chelsea Flower Show and in a nod to British springtime, No. Ten Manchester Street, Marylebone’s elegant boutique hotel, has put a fragrant twist on its afternoon tea with UK tea emporium, Tea Palace. Afternoon Tea in Bloom is available from Friday 16 May – Sunday 25 May and is priced at £30 per person.

No. Ten Manchester Street’s Executive Chef Cristian Gaimarri has creatively incorporated different kinds of flora including lavender, violet, mint, jasmine and rose into an Afternoon Tea in Bloom. Lavender-infused scones with blood orange marmalade and crème fraiche, mint and jasmine tiramisu, and almond sponge cake and rosewater Chantilly cream will satisfy any sweet tooth. A range of finger sandwiches - chicken Caesar, ricotta and parma ham and smoked salmon – are expertly accompanied by courgette flowers, violets and edible roses. There is also an extensive menu of teas which includes signature Tea Palace blends, as well as the hotel’s own exclusive Dieci blend of Tea.

No. Ten Manchester Street sits behind a beautiful Edwardian façade, perfectly situated within walking distance of Regent’s Park and some of the best shops in London - from Selfridges to Marylebone High Street. Tea Palace has shops in Covent Garden and on the King’s Road - www.teapalace.co.uk
