Description
Awash in blues, grays and off-whites, this elegant hotel lounge is a popular host of afternoon tea (2 to 5 p.m Saturdays and Sundays). Among the tea-menu options are Lady Primrose's Secret Garden Tea and Harney & Sons. The former, a decaf selection, is a mixture of peaches, cinnamon and hibiscus flowers. Harney & Sons tea offers eight varieties: Earl Grey Supreme with silvertip and lemony bergamot, Japanese Sencha green tea and pomegranate oolong, are a few of the choices. Aside from the raised-pinkie service, Beau's serves tapas, like the poached shrimp and crab claws in mango relish, as well as desserts, cocktails and wines by the glass. Hotel guests can retire to their king-sized beds after tea or small plates. The rest of us can only temporarily feel fancy.
