We had a meeting in Milton Keynes, so we left the house early with a view to have breakfast on route. A detour through Buckingham was on the cards
I spotted a cute tea room and the lights were on. We had to wait for them to finish cleaning the floor, we were that early. Just looking through the window I could not wait to get inside and look around.
15 Minutes later we were sat at a table by the window, time to sit back and take in the décor. The first thing that you come in contact with is the feeling of the soft fabric that is the table cloth, it is so old world and perfect in the setting. The napkins match.
I choose the table not because it was by the window, it was the beautiful tea set on the table. I loved the orange colour with navy blue and the gold just gave it a richness. I had to have my tea in this cup.
The menu is a work of art, after we made our choice of eggs Benedict and eggs Florentine. we spent a lot of time looking at the menu. There is a section that gives information on different teas.
We loved having tea in the beautiful tea cups. It makes a huge difference sitting at a table that is dressed to perfection. And having fine porcelain to drink out of. It is a very calm, pleasant place to sit and while away a couple of hours.
Jaruchi ( the welcoming, lovely lady who owns the tea room and the author of the menus) pays attention to the smallest detail. The salt and pepper cellar are Victorian and have labels attached so you know which one is which.
Breakfast arrived ......
The best way to start the day, a good cup of tea and indulgent, perfectly cooked eggs.
The muffins have to be thin not too thick and warm - tick
Wafer thin ham - tick
Eggs, must be poached, soft and runny yolks - tick
Next hollandaise sauce, rich, creamy, lemony butter sauce. - tick
Breakfast was perfect and the experience was elegant and welcoming.
ENJOY
