There are only a few fancy places you can make reservations for afternoon tea three weeks before the date, which is a little ridiculous imo. The Goring was one of them, so we went. It's menu looked more exciting than most others anyhow, with a special Goring trifle after you've stuffed yourself silly.
The Amuse Bouche was a lobster crawfish cream soup type stuff. Yum!
The sandwich, scone and pastry tray was also quite tasty. There were two sandwiches I thought were particularly tasty, the coronation chicken and I think like pheasant and watercress or something. We didn't refill the egg salad or the smoked salmon sandwiches. The pastries included a lemon macaroon, an apple pie, an ice cream roll, apple jelly, chocolate cake, and a little berry cupcake. Tasty.
And then the "Not Quite a Trifle" trifle:
All in all a very nice afternoon tea. Better than Fortnum & Mason like what.
