We were given a gift voucher at Christmas, for afternoon tea at Jessie’s Kitchen in Broughty Ferry, not somewhere we had ever been before, but afternoon tea is just about my favourite meal because I get easily bored by food and I like a lot of variety, a wee bit of lots of different things, and that is what we got this afternoon. It was delicious!
We couldn’t manage it all though, which must be quite a regular occurrence I’m sure, and our waitress asked us if we would like a box to take the surplus cake home, which we did. That was at 4 o’clock and we were so full up that neither of us had room for our dinner tonight. All we have had since then is tea/coffee – so with any luck we might not have put on any weight!
The setting is a large Victorian villa overlooking the River Tay and there’s a garden centre in the same building. I think we’ll be making a return visit sometime in the future.
My mouth is watering!
Peggy Ann,
It could be on that list of places to visit!
That looks yummy! What a great variety of appetizing foods. We need tea rooms (or more of them) in the U.S.!
Joan,
There are loads of them here and they all seem to do well. We ate our scones with you in mind! Mine was a fruit scone and Jack’s was plain – we had lashings of butter and strawberry jam, you would have to dodge the butter I suppose.
I love afternoon tea! Wish I could do it more often, but the waistline doesn’t allow it.
Jo,
I feel the same but mind you, if it means you aren’t hungry enough for your dinner hours later then surely it can’t be too bad for you!
Looks like it was a lovely tea.
Evee,
It was years since we had had afternoon tea out somewhere and it has put me in the mood for trying out other places, but we’ll have to restrict ourselves – or exercise a lot more.
Could you let me know how to get vouchers…I’ve been trying with no success.
Thx
Hunter,
I’ve emailed the person who gave us the vouchers about this and I’ll get back to you as soon as I hear from them.
