We all know the game of choosing the right setting to meet someone to talk. Lunch is too rushed, dinner is too formal, and "drinks" is too loud and crowded. When you want to impress a guest (or a number of them), and pizza and beer just doesn't do it, don't forget that there's a reason high tea has remained the Queen of Alternative Events for centuries. And we aren't talking merely brewing up a pot--we mean the big ol' High Tea Experience.
You may be saying, "but I don't have nearly enough cats," or "And just when my bonnet and parasol are in the shop!" Come on. What is more stimulating than entertaining uniquely? Plus, you don't have to worry about giving $3.79 per cup to some beatnik wannabe in a smock. And if you think you are alone, heed this fact:
As you read this, 20 million cups of tea are being sipped in England (assuming it takes you a full day to read this).
So, get in touch with your inner Anglophile, and let's see how it's done.
