pasticceria, con tutti i dolci meravigliosamente esposti in vetrine (si possono anche comprare da portare via); ma la vera meraviglia \u00e8 la sala da Tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-12 wp-block-paragraph\">E&#8217; piccolina, con i tavolini rotondi e le sedie in legno, le specchiere dorate e piccoli centrotavola fioriti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-13 wp-block-paragraph\">Non \u00e8 lussuoso, <strong>\u00e8 un posto di campagna, ma l&#8217;atmosfera \u00e8 di quelle che non si

wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>E&#8217; previsto di scegliere unicamente il tipo di Tea in un men\u00f9 che ne propone una quantit\u00e0 infinita,<\/strong> nel vero senso della parola (da questo si capisce quale sia la ragione per cui gli inglesi usano l&#8217;espressione &#8220;it&#8217;s not my cup of tea&#8221;), <strong>e un dolce a scelta,<\/strong> tipo cheescake, torta home made\u00a0o altro tipo di dolce\u00a0che varia a seconda dei giorni.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Il locale, in particolare, \u00e8 famoso in tutto il Regno Unito per le sue celebri <strong>&#8220;Original Maids of Honour Tarts&#8221;<\/strong> (tortine a base di pasta sfoglia e un ripieno segreto di cagliata dolcificata\/formaggio fresco, nate secondo la leggenda alla corte dei Tudor).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-15 wp-block-paragraph\">Tutto il&nbsp;resto&nbsp;arriva per conto&nbsp;proprio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-16 wp-block-paragraph\">Il Tea viene servito con scones e clotted cream in servizi di porcellana finissima bianchi e blu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-17 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ogni Tea ha la sua teiera, il suo minicolino per filtrarlo, tazza, piatti e piattini, piccole zuccheriere e lattiere.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-18 wp-block-paragraph\">Praticamente il servizio delle bambole con cui giocavo da piccola.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-19 wp-block-paragraph\">Gli scones e i mini sandwiches con salmone, cucumber, formaggio, vengono servizi su bellissimi vassoi e alzate a pi\u00f9 piani che, da soli, valgono la visita.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3

\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-20 wp-block-paragraph\">Non ci sono turisti, ma coppie di anziane signore che conversano amabilmente con perfetto accento british, che ti aspetti risolvano qualche misterioso omicidio commesso nelle vicinanze, &nbsp;mentre si godono il loro Afternoon Tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Insomma, una vera e propria <a href=\"https:\/\/pennaspillo.it\/tag\/esperienze-gastronomiche-a-londra\/\">esperienza da provare.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-21\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>&#x1f370; Afternoon Tea vs High Tea: Qual \u00e8 la Differenza?<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-drop-cap p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-22 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">Ho scoperto che, in realt\u00e0, i t\u00e8 del pomeriggio in Inghilterra sono due: Afternoon Tea ed High Tea.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-23 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">Che differenza c\u2019\u00e8 tra Afternoon Tea ed High Tea?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-24 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">La differenza, da quello che ho capito, sta nell\u2019origine.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-25 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">Il pi\u00f9 conosciuto \u00e8 l\u2019Afternoon Tea che si serve tra le quattro e le sei del pomeriggio. Durante l\u201dAfternoon Tea si mangiano abitualmente dolci come i tradizionali scones con marmellata, clotted cream e torte&nbsp;di vario genere (nei posti pi\u00f9 eleganti si beve anche champagne).<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-26 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">Ma naturalmente si mangiano anche&nbsp;tartine salate a base di uova, prosciutto affumicato, salmone.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-27 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">Poi c\u2019\u00e8 l\u2019High Tea, sorto&nbsp;in epoca vittoriana durante la rivoluzione industriale,&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"s1\">che una volta era il pasto serale della &#8220;working class&#8221;&nbsp;e si serviva tra le cinque e le nove di sera.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-28 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">L\u2019High tea \u00e8 chiamato anche Meat tea (t\u00e8 della carne) perch\u00e9 \u00e8 molto pi\u00f9 sostanzioso dell\u2019Afternoon tea (praticamente un sostitutivo della cena).<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-29 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">Il cibo tipico dell\u2019High tea \u00e8 l\u2019insalata di prosciutto, ma \u00e8 facile trovare anche carni, pane, burro, sottaceti, formaggi.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">&#x1f449; <strong>Leggi anche <a href=\"https:\/\/pennaspillo.it\/it\/londra\/afternoon-tea-londra-cinque-posti-che-devi-provare\/\">Afternoon Tea a Londra: cinque posti che devi provare<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-30 wp-block-paragraph\">Tornando alla mia gita, dopo aver preso il t\u00e8 al The Original Maids of Honour, si attraversa la strada e, passando dall&#8217;entrata principale di Victoria Gate, si assiste allo spettacolo Christmas at Kew, ai Kew Gardens di Londra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading p2 has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-31\"><strong>&#x2728; Christmas at Kew: I Giardini Reali Si Trasformano in un Bosco Incantato<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-drop-cap has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-32 wp-block-paragraph\">Immaginate un bosco incantato di notte, completamente illuminato da lucine di Natale, con musica di sottofondo che sembra uscire dagli alberi e giochi di luce che si accendono all&#8217;improvviso sull&#8217;acqua.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ecco, esiste, e si chiama <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kew.org\">Christmas at Kew<\/a>, nei <strong>Royal Botanic Gardens<\/strong> (meglio acquistare prima i biglietti on line), ed \u00e8 la cosa pi\u00f9 natalizia che io abbia mai visto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-33 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>L&#8217;entrata principale \u00e8 Victoria Gate,<\/strong> in corrispondenza della fermata della metro di Kew Gardens (District Line).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Controlla per\u00f2 sempre sul biglietto l&#8217;ingresso assegnato<\/strong> per evitare di fare il giro dei giardini a piedi al freddo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-34 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>L&#8217;apertura \u00e8 serale (dalle 5pm alle 10pm, ma l&#8217;ultimo ingresso \u00e8 intorno alle 8pm)<\/strong>, perch\u00e9 per godere lo spettacolo bisogna aspettare il calare delle tenebre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-35 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Appena fa buio, il bosco si illumina.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-36 wp-block-paragraph\">Gi\u00e0 dall&#8217;ingresso si intuisce che qualcosa di particolare sta per accadere, perch\u00e9 il giardino \u00e8 incantato gi\u00e0 da solo (non per niente si tratta dei Royal Botanic Gardens), figuriamoci con gli alberi tutti travestiti da alberi di Natale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-37 wp-block-paragraph\">Avanzando lungo il percorso si incontrano scenari di questo tipo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex
