Members High Tea feedback
Well I confirm that it was was a wonderful experience!!! Michel and I enjoyed it so much! The sandwiches and cakes were absolutely delicious and the atmosphere very friendly. Yes I think it is a very good idea to renew the experience.
Next time I am very willing to help with whatever is needed (prepare the room, make sandwiches or even bake scones). Yes I know I am French but I really enjoy baking English goodies.Genevieve
