High Tea.



One of the well-known British inspired rituals in Cape Town is High Tea.

High Tea is held in different locations all over the city. I attended the Mount Nelson Hotel afternoon tea.

At this even, you first choose what tea you would like, from a large selection.  Roobios is the flavor of tea made in South Africa.

Small sandwiches, quiches, samoosas, and other savory foods are served. As well as, a wide variety of decadent mini desserts!

Tea and snacks are enjoyed at seating arrangements specific to the size of your party. Large armchairs, sofas, and occasional chairs surround a coffee table full of your tea and treats. Quiet classical piano is playing in the background.

 High tea makes for a relaxing and delicious afternoon!
