The Lady's Restaurant Recommendations: MarTEAni Afternoon Tea
Where: 35 St James's Pl, St. James's, London SW1A 1NY
Why: Nestled in the heart of historic St. James’s Mayfair, DUKES LONDON is a sophisticated, luxury hotel where you will arrive as a guest and leave as a friend. Ever since King Henry 8th built his palace here in the 16th Century, St. James’s has been the exclusive retreat of writers, musicians, politicians and royalty. Effortlessly blending quintessential British charm and cosmopolitan luxury DUKES LONDON has a timeless, hospitable atmosphere that makes one feel as if you never left home. Now they have launched a brand new afternoon tea concept- MarTEAni, an afternoon tea with a twist!
DUKES has partnered with The East India Company and now offers an exclusive MarTEAni Afternoon Tea – complete with three beautifully crafted mini martinis. Each martini uses The East India Company gin and infused vermouth and is carefully paired with the sandwiches and sweet treats – think a citrussy orange marmalade martini to enjoy with warm scones and a black tea martini with the pastries – there is also the wonderful array of sumptious sandwiches and cakes which are truly British and enough to satisfy your sweet tooth!
