Flowers, scones and champagne – it sounds like a match made in heaven.  Add the luxurious surroundings of The Promenade at The Dorchester and it’s almost too grand to be true.

Champagne Laurent-Perrier has teamed up with The Dorchester to create a scrumptious Floral Champagne Afternoon Tea – exclusively available for Chelsea Flower Show week (24th-30th May 2010).

Served in the delightful Promenade, a selection of freshly cut sandwiches, warmed scones and delicious pastries, are accompanied by a glass of Laurent-Perrier Cuvée Rosé served in a pretty cherry-blossom glass.   The exceptional freshness of the Cuvée Rosé and unique aromas of freshly picked red berries make it a delicious afternoon drink, and the perfect partner to both sweet and savory dishes.

Claude Lamarche executive pastry chef at The Dorchester explains, “I have paired two new pastry dishes with the Laurent-Perrier Cuvée Rosé for The Dorchester’s Floral Champagne Afternoon Tea – the ‘Summer Bouquet’ a lychee, raspberry and rose mousse, and ‘Strawberries and Petals’, strawberries covered in vanilla with hand-made edible petals.  Both pair wonderfully with the champagne’s unique berry taste”.

The Dorchester’s Floral Champagne Afternoon Tea  will be served from Monday 24 May until Sunday 30 May at 2.30pm and 4.45pm, and is priced at £44 per person.

For reservations, please telephone The Dorchester on 020 7629 8888 or email restaurants.uk@dorchestercollection.com.
