AFTERNOON TEA

Afternoon tea (or coffee) is one of our favourite times in the restaurants. After the hum of lunch has quietened, the dining rooms are left with those enjoying that second or third bottle of wine and lingering business meetings. This makes way for a new wave and a calming transition in the rooms, the laptops come out again and the spaces are once more filled with workers, coffee drinkers and those in need of a sweet or savoury afternoon pick-me-up. Of course, our kitchen stays open all day, so any or all of these people may order something from the menu proper, or may have decided that it’s the perfect time for a cocktail and a pizza. But we like to ensure that we have a couple of additional daily baked morsels to offer customers, especially those who may want to grab and go.

The recipes in this chapter definitely fall into the more decadent category, but we try to avoid highly refined sugar and sweeteners and, where we can, favour the use of unrefined golden caster sugar, whole cane sugars, raw honey, maple syrup or other natural sweeteners, such as dates. At times the use of refined caster sugar is unavoidable, as its consistency and stability is sometimes hard to match, though it is always in our minds to ‘keep it clean’. However, we also value the importance of ‘keeping it real’ and still enjoying an occasional delicious sweet treat.
