Afternoon tea with a delicious difference

I'd been pestering my friends for ages to check out afternoon tea at Asia de Cuba, the restaurant of the 5* St Martin's Lane hotel (Covent Garden). And FINALLY the day had come - and it was so worth the wait!

Service was great, the decor in the restaurant is quirky and cool (plants, framed photos and books draped around the columns; specially designed crockery by Shoreditch based company Luna & Curious) and as it wasn't very busy, it wasn't too noisy to have a conversation. Plus the sweet selection gets served after the savoury selection with a very welcomed break in between, too. And all with lovely company :-)

And for just £25 including a glass of champagne it doesn't break the bank either!
Beware though that the hotel doesn't have any signs outside - apparently they are following an Alice in Wonderland theme which means that finding it, is part of the fun. Not sure that makes much sense to me...
