royal tea @ the peninsula.

the peninsula beverly hills.

i lOve having hotel high teas during the holidays, with the fires lit, decor + trees up.

makes me smile.

hand painted settings.

champagne, strawberries and cream to start. hotel teas are usually a little on the pricier side, the peninsula starting at $45/person for royal tea is no exception.

for two. scones, savories and sweets. i enjoyed the sweets here more than i did the savories.. which is not an unusual experience for me at high tea.  all in all, the savories were just okay, but ambiance, service, sweets, all excellent.
