Afternoon Tea is a part of the day loved by many. It's a chance to relax with friends, have a chat and enjoy scones, pastries, tea and even a glass of champagne.

I was in the Aria room at the Langham where I was staying with a couple of girlfriends while shopping in Melbourne for bridesmaid dresses late last year. We arrived in the aria room just as the afternoon tea finished, we were there for gin and tonics! typical!
