Although I am a big fan of coffee and dislike tea immensely, I hold a fascination with the concept that has become known as
high tea. There is something about tiny portions of tasty food served so elegantly that appeals to the baker in me. A few months ago, I joined the hordes buying
Grab One vouchers for
high tea for two at Mojo - all the trappings of high tea served with
real coffee! It took several weeks for a booking to become available and yesterday afternoon was our lucky day.
After perusing the tea menu, we ordered coffee anyway. Our food came out on a three-tier stand.

The food on offer today was average; nothing in particular stood out. We started at the bottom and worked our way up the tiers. The club sandwiches had some tasty fillings but the bread was hard - probably sitting out on the counter for too long. We enjoyed the risotto balls and the cherry tomato in a flaky pastry cup. Dry scones with jam and cream and then some spicy rhubarb mini muffins followed. The cherry and pistachio nougat was a great way to finish, along with the milk and dark chocolate truffle. Definitely an afternoon tea for the girls!
My sister in law took me to tea for my birthday. We had so much fun. Ours came with a beautiful salad, scones with devonshire cream, and the three tier treat of fruit on top, lovely sweets on the middle and sandwhiches on the bottom. I had so much fun with her, it was such a treat to forget anything and everything and just be a girl. I did have tea though LOL. Yeah for such a fun experience!!!
