I'm British and people don't eat cakes and sandwiches in places like this every day. It's for special occasions, and only if you can afford it. (You can just about fill your car with a tank of fuel for the same price!) For something much more affordable that normal Brits actually enjoy, try a "Cream Tea", which is just the scones with jam, clotted cream, and a pot of tea to share. It's a traditional afternoon treat without all the frills and fancy, and it's lovely.

I still have an afternoon tea with my mom n my moms-mom every day at 3pm, of course I stopped pairing it with cookies or anything after I began to cut back on refined flour and sugar, but I do drink tea. I’m a South Indian kannadiga and we usually prefer coffee but at noon time it’s always tea with cookies or pastries, perhaps this has something to do with the British influence, because the royals of Mysore who previously governed this region would host noon-time high-tea gatherings too.

One thing I always appreciated about tea in general is how versatile it is as a beverage and how relaxing that first sip is. You can have it posh with bite size sweets and sandwiches or you can go for more savory options, neither option would diminish the experience. Of course it goes without saying that certain flavors and brands are better suited for particular palettes but I think that further enhances tea and its versitility

@PoisonelleMisty4311 3 ай бұрын

Tea can be enjoyed hot or cold, sweetened or unsweetened, with or without milk, and with a variety of different flavors and additives. It truly is a beverage that can be tailored to suit anyone's preferences. I also love the ritual of preparing and drinking tea. There's something so calming about boiling the water, steeping the tea leaves, and slowly savoring each sip. It's a chance to take a moment for yourself and relax, which is why many people turn to tea as a way to unwind after a long day. Overall, I think tea's versatility, comforting qualities, and ability to be customized make it a truly special beverage that can be enjoyed by anyone, no matter their taste preferences.

Its a fact that our British tank crews in WW2 would stop in the afternoon for a brew up. It infuriated the US tank crews because it did not matter if it was mid battle. Tea is tea. We now have kettles inside the tank so we can carry on whilst someone makes the brew!

Since 1945, all the British military have been supplied with AKCs, or ‘Armoured Kettle Carriers,’ sometimes wrongly called ‘tanks,’ or ‘Main Battle Tanks.’ The latest incarnation is the Challenger 3 AKC, which cost around £5.4 million each, which only goes to prove how crucial protecting the kettle is in the successful waging of any war in the modern age. May God bless you, and at all costs, save the tea.

Scones are a Scottish culinary invention and the word should be pronounced to rhyme with “gone” (not with “drone”). I often make scones, they’re easy to make, and the traditional recipe includes baking soda as a raising agent, so they have a slightly salty flavour. They should be eaten with butter, and they taste great with rhubarb and ginger jam, which complements the plain, doughy flavour perfectly.

Scone is yet another pronunciation that was altered, for whatever reason, when it went into use in a different country.

These past few years I've learned about the Asian influences/inspo of British afternoon tea and the types of teas from India, japan + china and other parts of Asia. Ceylon, assam, jasmine etc etc. I find some Asian countries and former British colonies are really into the afternoon tea stuff specifically Malaysia, Hong Kong + Singapore. To me it seems they're even more into it than the British, it's very trendy in those places. I know the have their own traditional tea culture + practices but I find it interesting how they've taken on the British or more European styles heavily.

@marywenzel3199 10 ай бұрын

I’m amazed that it took until 1840 for someone to “invent” the concept of a tea break with some light food between lunch and dinner. Prior to the Duchess of Bedford coming up with the idea of eating something in the approximately seven hour stretch between the end of luncheon and Dinner service at about 8 PM in aristocratic households, I guess everyone, including Kings and Queens just had to go hungry. For approximately 900 years everybody just starved between lunch and dinner because it was tradition. Alternatively they could’ve just chosen to move dinner up by a few hours. The concept of afternoon tea really never caught on with the American masses because stateside we generally considered dinner time to be between 5 and 6 PM. I suppose a luxury afternoon tea in a hotel is an experience to be savored if one can afford it, but the price is astronomical and good luck getting a reservation. I have an acquaintance in Brighton who serves lovely homemade teas in her home with all the trimmings. The sandwiches might not be as fancy as the ones at the Savoy but the price is sure a lot more palatable. Apologies to our British friends but that carpet in the Savoy dining room would put me right off my food. That has got to be some of the ugliest decor I’ve ever seen for such an over priced place.

Wow , looks like an experience. Nice to have a calm tea in the afternoon. Hmm, on the history lesson, it seems to be limited to the English time it was adopted. Originally Its from farmers and work-hands needing a energy boost. Austria has a long tradition of a 3pm meal, normally now with a tea or coffee and cakes and pastries long before 1840. Austria & Britain were centuries long time allies until WW1 so it makes sense they would have adopted the tradition.

What I will remember is “British culinary experience” but planned and prepared by a French chef 😂 at least HE saved the day … or shall I say the afternoon tea ! My experience was less mondaine and I don’t keep any good memories of it as British food, is, somewhat to remain polite, not my cup of tea 😂. I yet have to try the afternoon tea at the Savoy. This might be interesting. At least on what the video shows, it’s seems rather noisy and I doubt the sound of the spoon onto the cup would mater much. Yet, personally I would enjoy it more if the atmosphere was more quiet. But as I said, i still must try it first before I can comment further about this fine tradition.
