A Proper British Tea

The Orangery at Kensington Palace

A trip to London would not be complete without a proper afternoon tea.  After visiting the home of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (aka William and Kate), Kensington Palace on the first birthday of their son George, I went to an afternoon tea at The Orangery.  This is not to be confused with the afternoon tea that the Queen had there about an hour after I left!


I opted for the darjeeling tea and was able to get the vegetarian standard Afternoon Tea.  This included sandwiches with egg salad and cress and cucumber and mint.  Also there were the traditional scones, with strawberry jam and clotted cream and pastries.



Amazing experience!
