Conrad London St. James: 50 Shades of Afternoon Tea

As curious tea-tasters, each time we're in London we can’t miss the opportunity to try a new afternoon tea ceremony. So, this time, we chose the Autumn Bramble Afternoon Tea prepared by Zoe Wager, London’s Top Executive Pastry Chef, who ensures that every afternoon tea the hotel creates is full of fun and great tastes. Creating desserts is her passion and she is famous for creating 34,000 desserts for the London Olympics, 2012.

The choice of mouth-watering savoury and sweet treats was fantastic. Chocolate pine nuts and pebbles, apple & blackberry tart, blackcurrant and liquorice macaroons, pumpkin cheesecake, a tonka bean white chocolate mousse cake – we enjoyed them all, accompanied by the sophisticated green and white tea we chose from the impressive tea menu.

I fell in love with traveling much earlier than I fell in love with my first man. And I'm still faithful to that love (But I have exchanged some men since my first one). I have never had a reason to regret my passion. I constantly dream of going further, it gives me indescribable emotions and meaning to my life.
