Grosvenor
House, the iconic Park Lane hotel currently undergoing
a multi-million pound restoration, has launched a new concept
in afternoon tea in its newly revealed Park Room.
Overlooking Hyde Park, the Park Room offers welcome respite
from the bustling West End. Its new afternoon tea menu is
designed to appeal to a wide audience and features the traditional
afternoon tea menu in addition to an a la carte option allowing
guests to choose exactly what they want.
Highlights include old fashioned favourites including freshly
baked scones and hot toasted crumpets with butter and comb
honey. For those in search of a more exotic alternative, Moroccan
tea and Turkish coffee will be accompanied by Medjool dates,
Barazec biscuits and Baklava.
Fresh, traceable produce will be used throughout the menu
including oak smoked salmon from the Hebrides, free range
eggs and organic Devonshire farmhouse clotted cream. Plain
and raisin buttermilk scones will be home made in the Grosvenor
House kitchens and accompanied by Boddington’s strawberry
jam. Loose leaf teas will come from Jackson’s of Piccadilly. |
