And so, it is no accident that this deliciously elegant occasion continues to entice.

Capture the essence of this splendid institution through the eyes of one who learned to sup the golden brew on her Granny’s lap. Enjoy recipes from Ontario’s finest Tea Rooms, in addition to those from a Lancashire family long steeped in the tea-time tradition.
