Like many of the luxury five star hotels in London, Blakes offers a great afternoon tea, and indeed, food and drink at almost any time of day. This is afternoon tea with a Chinese twist, and is served in their subterranean 'Chinese room' all dark woods, gleaming silver tea pots and elegance. If Chinese beauty doesn't take your fancy, and the weather is clement enough, then you can also take tea in the stunning Japanese garden. There are beautiful, almost sushi like, boxes of colourfully filled finger sandwiches garnished with little pots of cress and other tiny pretty salad leaves. Perfect freshly baked scones, pots of rich cream and little jars of fresh strawberry jams. Fresh marinated strawberries, great slabs of chocolate cake, and delicate plum cakes finish off the sumptuous spread.
