Dr. Bombay's Underwater Tea Party

I recently had high tea at Dr. Bombay's Underwater Tea Party. This high tea experience began with a pot of your choice of tea. The choices of tea on the menu were as follows: green, rooibos, black, herbal, or ceylon. I chose to have a pot of Strawberry Vanilla Rooibos. A person is able to choose from condiments such as honey, sugar, steamed milk, or lemon to go with their tea. After a few minutes have passed a waitress will serve you a tray of different types of snacks. The selection included scones, quiche, small sandwiches, and sweets. My experience at Dr. Bombay's was filed with delicious tea and an assortment of flavorful snacks. I would definitely recommend Dr. Bombay's Underwater Tea Party for your next tea tasting experience.
