TEA PARTY PLANNING WORKSHOP

We've announced the exciting news

about the pop-up event at ROYAL/T

before they close their doors at the end of July. 

  

We've described their afternoon tea menu

to get an idea of what will be served at the event.

    

Now let's talk about the workshop portion of the event.

     

Our

'ULTIMATE' TEA PARTY PLANNING

WORKSHOP EVENT

has been updated to be sure you have

current, useful and best options.

    

We will go over all the details

that give tea parties their unique ability to slow us down

and enjoy the moment while sipping tea

and communicating face to face in this time-honored ceremony.

    

Over the years of exploring teas,

sampling afternoon tea fare at multiple tea rooms

as well as using these experiences

to tweak, flip and design my own tea parties. 

Loving every aspect of the planning stage,

making sure no detail is overlooked

so my guests will have a magical, memorable tea party.

    

Instead of being overwhelmed by all the information shared,

you will find yourself opening up to possibilities

you never knew were available.

    

I will show you how planning your tea event

is as much fun as the actual tea party.

   

Each workshop allows for the participants to ask questions

so even though we make sure all the agenda items are covered

we may spend a little extra time

on specific areas of particular interest.

As a result, each workshop is a little different.

    

Examples of the many aspects to consider when planning

will be shown and you will receive

various handouts including an agenda, recipes, and tips

... and a few little surprises you will enjoy.

Parties are fun but tea parties, you will find,

are something special

because of the details that go into planning one.

Details make all the difference!

MENU for July 21st 'Ultimate' Tea Party Workshop Event

ROYAL/T has a French-Japanese influenced menu,

with over twenty tea choices and Afternoon Tea. 

I have sampled their afternoon tea

and it is a step up from the basic

cucumber and egg salad sandwich choices. 

Instead, I was served an avocado tower
topped with tuna tartare
open face sandwich on grilled bread
and sprinkled with wasabi micro greens.  

Two variations of their grilled vegetable panini,

which alternated portobello mushrooms, eggplant,
zucchini, yellow squash, bell peppers

and mozzarella with a basil pesto dressing
and fresh arugula. 

The fourth selection was
smoked salmon and herb butter. 

Hardly boring and very tasty.

Their cranberry scone was flavorful and moist,

studded generously with cranberries

and served with a fruit-flavored cream. 

It was one of the best scones I've ever tasted.

The dessert was not the usual cookies or slice of cake. 

Instead you are treated to a trio of
creamy, rich cheesecake,

decadent, super moist, chocolaty brownie,

and a perfectly cooked vanilla bean flan

amidst fresh, plump raspberries, blueberries,
blackberries and strawberries, oh, my. 

The tea list here offers classic and modern choices --

all loose leaf ... real tea (not tea bags)

and brewed perfectly in your own little pot. 

Include with Afternoon Tea is 
their signature ROYAL/T Milk Tea,

a unique combination of black tea with rose petals,
pieces of fruit and vanilla brewed in soy milk. 

The perfect complement to the meal.

Their 3 tier serving tray holds a delectable and
original afternoon tea
that will leave your taste buds dazzled

and make you feel like royalty. 

I doubt you will every experience afternoon tea

like this anywhere else.

So join us at 

The 'ULTIMATE' TEA PARTY Workshop Event

at ROYAL/T
before they close their doors at the end of the month.

It takes place on Saturday, July 21st
from 10 to noon. 

Savour the cuisine
while learning how to create your own

one-of-a-kind tea party. 

Space is limited to make sure you
