I would say it's pretty worth the experience if you don't expect to eat gourmet pastry during a high tea session.

And sandwiches with fillings that melt in your mouth. Not over-sweet creme brulee with gloriously smooth custard. Opera cake masterfully prepared with each layer not overwhelming the other, yet the flavours meld together. Anyway, yes Mariage Freres is really good. I visited it in Paris and got some teas :)Lee Pingnoreply@blogger.com
