I m going to advocate for having a high tea at a swanky hotel. car rentals kahului hawaii These kinds of high teas are definitely the best. While in Buenos Aires, Husband J and I made sure to stop by the high tea at Buenos Aires Grand Dame of hotels, the Alvear Palace Hotel . It s one of Buenos Aires most lauded and most luxurious hotels. I would have considered staying here, but I wasn t so sure that I wanted to drop the $500 USD plus for a room. Maybe someday.
After ordering, the march of food began. I guess when I mentioned going to high tea to Husband J I expected him to know what it was. We had just eaten a ton of pizza (well, HE had just eaten a ton of pizza) at Guerrín. I think when I said tea, he thought I meant just a cup of tea. Oh no, honey. High tea is much more than that. Was that my bad? Should I have warned him appropriately?
My advice: Come to this tea HUNGRY. Eat a light breakfast and a quick, light lunch or mid-day snack if you have to.  If you can hold old out until tea time, even better. Tea starts each day at 4:30pm and doesn t stop until about 7pm, every day except Sunday. You want your stomach prepared. Really.
To start, we were served a banana-flavored bread. Unlike the more cakey pastry-like banana breads that we have here in this U.S., this had the consistency of an actual bun. I liked it. Nothing like priming your palate for things car rentals kahului hawaii to come.
Everything about the Alvear Palace Hotel s tea is about reliving old school luxury. From the white-gloved waiters, the classically elegant car rentals kahului hawaii china and the beautifully maintained tea service ware, it s just a style of dining that I think many of us just don t experience much anymore. The waiters were very attentive, and they speak excellent English just in case you don t want to order in Spanish.
Just when I thought the onslaught of food was over nope it wasn t. What you can t see inside is yet ANOTHER dessert that we were offered as a finale. The waiters even brought out the dessert cart. I told them to pack it up. Yikes! It was this lovely coffee flavored mille-feuille pastry. Perfectly flaky and great for an after dinner snack that I tore into later.
I had a lovely time and enjoyed car rentals kahului hawaii this experience. While it wasn t my first and only high tea experience, I think the surroundings and value for food and service make for a pretty nice afternoon of relaxation after pounding the pavement in Buenos Aires.
This looks like a wonderful experience and man I shouldn t be looking at all of this food right before my work out! I love the color of the plates! You two are so sweet together in the last photo! Looks like a grand hotel wow $500 plus a night no thanks! It s nice though that you can visit for high tea without having to stay!
