High Tea Cottage
Yesterday my Mother, Daughter and I went to try out the High Tea Cottage for my Daughter's upcoming Bridal Luncheon. We had never been to a Tea House before. My Daughter was the only one who was very skeptical about the whole idea. The High Tea Cottage did not disappoint. Jen and Ken welcomed us in to sit down. I explained to Jen that we where not sure about the menu and how to order. Jen suggested we try the Lady Hamilton, meanwhile Ken started to explain the different teas to us, which was the best presentation of tea I have ever seen. I chose the Queen Elizabeth and my Mom chose the Marzipan. I cannot remember which one my Daughter chose. Mine was delightful.... However my Mom's eyes lit up like a little kid's when she tasted her's. She said it was the best! Jen served us the Chicken, Cranberry and Walnut Salad. Fantastic! Next we had the Finger Sandwich's. Double Fantastic! Last we had the Meat Pie. Triple Fantastic! I saved the best for last thou..... My only experience I have ever had with a scone was terrible enough to never want one again. After a beautiful presentation of Jams and Devonshire Cream (never had that before) I decided to give it a try. Oh my.... was it good. The cranberry scone was to die for. it was fresh baked while we where there. I chose the raspberry jam. I have dreamed about them all night long. They where the best!!! All in all I would give the High Tea Cottage a 100 on a scale of 1 to 10. The Food and Experience was the best. If you are in the West End of the San Fernando Valley (Woodland Hills), you really must check out this little gem.
