I totally agree, but I think Brits have had a long history of loving French food and hiring French chefs for the better hotels and households (Escoffier really made his name in London). They aren't known for the best home grown cuisine (I disagree with that) - but some of the Indian food I had in London rivalled the best I ever had in India. It's wanting to feed the British market that started Port wine, the best houses in Bordeaux, and God knows how many other wines. That's why I want to move to London (someday....)

Around a thousand years ago Imam Muhammad Al Ghazali told story of a man walking in the jungle. A roaring lion ran towards him and the man ran as fast as he could to escape from it. He noticed a well in front of him and he jumped inside hoping to escape from the lion. As he was falling inside the well, he grabbed onto the rope and saved himself. The man was so relieved but when he looked down he saw a big snake at the bottom of the well. It had its jaws wide open ready to swallow him up. The man then looked up and saw two mice nibbling at the rope. A black mouse and a white were both chewing into the rope. The scary lion was still prowling outside the well. The man's heart was pounding as he wondered how he could escape from this. Then he noticed a honeycomb in front of him which had delicious honey dripping from it. He stuck his finger into the honey and put it inside his mouth. It was delicious and for a moment he forgot about the lion, the snake and the two mice chewing at the rope. Imam Ghazali explained that the lion is like the angel of death which is always looming above us. The snake was like his grave which all humans will face. The black mouse and white mouse were like the day and night which are always nibbling at our life (the rope). The honey was like this dunya (this temporal world) which with its momentary sweetness makes us forget the death and the eternal life.

I'm just a regular old teacher in Northern California, but I really felt like a princess at tea. Serene piano music, luxurious seats with pillows (so cozy), impeccable service, beautiful tablewares, and just feeling so pampered and special. I wish everyone could experience that treatment at least once. Also, I was really impressed by the bathroom (fluffiest hand towels!!!).

One's accent only changes if one changes language before puberty. After puberty it requires either an excellent ear and talent for mimicry or special training to acquire the accent of the country one moves to. You can have a family move to another country and the children over 13 or so never lose their native accent while the children under the age of puberty at the time of relocation sound like natives of the adopted country. It's to do with how the brain acquires language before puberty but must be taught language after puberty.

The best thing about afternoon tea is it varies so much seasonally. I don't know if that is the same for Claridge's but I can also say you can get amazing ones for relatively low prices but the lower the prices the more wary you need to be of the quality.

Did work expenience here many years ago. its no joke at the quality and quantity they produce in that small pastry kitchen. As a scone native whos made 100k+ scones i cant help but give a little input, be careful mixing with the planetary mixer, you dont want to overmix as it will work the gluten too hard and remove that shortness in the exterior. dough should be slightly unfinished coming out of the bowl to be finished by hand to prevent this. (also hydration of that recipe looks wrong)
