There is no more quintessential British tradition than the serving of High tea. Credit for the custom goes to Anna, the 7th Duchess of Bedford in the early 19th century.
To forestall the afternoon pangs of hunger, she would order tea, bread and butter and cakes to be served in her room. Eventually she invited her friends to join her at home and the tea was such a success the habit caught on.
The sumptuous High tea offered at Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo is an unforgettable affair and a delightful way to spend time with family and friends. The afternoon snacking-cum-social experience has been perfected in ambience, service, and a deliciousness to rival the very best of Colombo.
