High Tea, Mrs. Roper, Sunday, May 19th - 12:30 p.m.
We’re thrilled to announce our Mrs. Roper Afternoon Tea.
Indulge in cucumber sandwiches (see full menu below) and enjoy our finest loose-leaf teas, all while dressed in your most fabulous kaftan and door-knocker earrings!
Over elegantly styled community tables with the artwork of Eight Legs Gallery artists as your backdrop, you can spill the tea with your fellow Helens.
Chef Kristen of Simply Bougie Luxury Picnics - um, err, Chef Jack Tripper has prepared the perfect Spring Afternoon menu with a trio of crustless tea sandwiches that Mr. Farley and Larry approved.
Food will be served community-style on three-tiered serving trays with finger sandwiches, scones, desserts, and other delicious goodies. Of course, afternoon tea would not be complete without lemon curd, clotted cream, and jam accompaniments. (We can’t guarantee Chrisy or Janet didn’t have their fingers in the jar). ;-)
Mrs. Roper Afternoon Tea will be presented on Sunday, May 19th at 12:30 p.m.
To join us, please call 734-777-4870 to make your reservation.
