We left the Tower of London for the Goring Hotel where we had a reservation for the afternoon tea. Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge with her immediate family spent the night before the Royal Wedding at this hotel. |
The hostess at the reception brought us to this room. Our table was by the window and we could see
the small courtyard from our seat.
|
On the saucer, a profile of a gentleman was drawn. I guess this is Otto Richard Goring who established this hotel. |
At first the lobster appetizer was served - yum! |
The cakes were not too impressive. They were too sweet for me. I prefer French desserts… |
Then, we headed to Harrods to buy some souvenirs. |
The building was illuminated and very beautiful… |
Each display window was also beautifully decorated and it was lots of fun to just look at it. |
Is this a police man? |
All the decorations were in the Christmas mode. |
Oh, Hello Kitty in Harrods! She is very active and travels all over the world! |
The first dish was the wanton soup - in a small ball, three wantons were swimming. This dish was £8 (~$13)! |
