cup of anarchy? i mean, tea

May 17th, 2011

Ditch the stuffy hoopla of the Royal Wedding and embrace London’s punk rock history instead. From April 22-May 8, the Metropolitan London’s Met Bar will be offering an “An-Tea Establishment” afternoon tea just in time to save us from monarchy overload – a quintessential British tea with a funky Metropolitan twist, including ingredients that satisfy without a huge calorie intake. Cheeky dishes include the “Quiche a la Fergie” with chorizo and spinach on a thin pastry base, along with reimagined classics like no bread cucumber sandwiches with layers of cucumber jelly with a bread foam. Rhubarb and custard cupcakes will be topped with iconic slogans and images to capture the feeling of the era. If tea isn’t quite strong enough, try the Sex Pistol-inspired cocktail “God Save The Queen,” and do a little head banging to the punk rock playlist drifting from the speakers.

Dates: April 22-May 8, 2011, 3-6pm

Rate: £27 per person plus service

The menu will be available in the Met Bar from April 22 to May 8, 3-6pm Monday- Sunday. Priced at £27 per person + service. Reservations must be pre-booked by calling +44(0) 20 7447 4757.
