Mother's Day High Tea at Bacchus

With a High Tea menu carefully created by Head Chef Mark Penna, there are three sittings - 12.30pm, 2.30pm and 4.30pm on Sunday May 8 each featuring only the best - a selection of delicate finger sandwiches, plain or fruit scones with Bonne Maman raspberry preserve and cream chantilly, an assortment of sweet delights and choice of fragrant Harney and Sons fine tea to take home and enjoy with a glass of Moët upon arrival. And, it's served the way a classic High Tea should be - on the very finest William Edwards fine bone china, the same crockery used at The Goring in London where the Queen Mother chose to take High Tea.
