Come and join etiquette expert and former serving member of The Queen’s Royal Household at Buckingham Palace, Ana Retallack, to learn about the history and customs of this gracious pastime.
This traditionally English custom is just as popular here in Australia, so sit back and enjoy a sumptuous tea (and a champagne for those who wish), whilst you learn about the history and customs of this gracious pastime. Discover how the sandwich came about through a love of gambling and how to stir your tea correctly! Ana will guide you through the rich history of afternoon tea, the tea itself, the accompaniments, finessing the food, napkin etiquette and other tidbits of fascinating information.
Notes will be provided following your course with The Standard Companion.
