Here’s the menu for the two afternoon tea events I’m holding on 17 & 18 September. The general theme is “A Taste of Victorian England” to coincide with the annual Saltaire Fesitval; the influence being Saltaire’s Victorian heritage. I wouldn’t go so far to say it’s a very true reflection of what the Victorians may be eaten but the menu includes things such as sausage rolls, Victoria sandwich cake and Bakewell tart that have a strong English connotation.
