.. Savoury Section of the Low Tea Set -I liked the Rhug Estate sausage roll but think the pastry could be baked a bit more browned! There is also a J Forman smoked salmon sandwich. The Stilton Quiche and Walnuts tart was pretty good, except the pastry base was a little hard. But overall enjoyable. Thought the sandwiches had too thin a filling though - apparently the restaurant is improving on these .English Breakfast Tea -2nd Flush was a lot better thanks..Sweet Layer of the Low Tea --

2nd Flush was a lot better thanks.

- Burnt Cambridge Cream Tart - one of my favourites on the day
- Strawberries filled with Champagne Cheesecake - didn't like the very sour and tart balance of this, especially when the Strawberry is not sweet enough.
- Sticky Toffee Pudding & Toffee Jelly - The shortening filled texture of this was quite accurate, but the toffee wasn't burnt enough and made it more too sugary. I think it also needed a real toffee sauce.
- Malted Chocolate Cup Cake - the texture was perfect but it was kind of too sweet.

I liked the clotted cream. The scones on my side were deemed decent but other tables thought it was a little too compressed dense to cut through. If I had one complaint, it was that the Raspberry Jam wasn't cooked enough to release it's deeper dark forest flavours

No longer on the menu at The Living Room downstairs. Can they please bring it back? I used to adore it.

Their Scotced egg used to have too little meat, but now it has improved. Loving it !

A Stout-soaked bread and now filled with a bit of ham and cheese was decent. It probably can do with more stout's taste. I miss my Welsh Rarebit in England and Australia.

I am really into British food. Call me biased. I will say this even though Britain abandoned us and gave us a dodgy BNO Passport to compensate (luckily I have an Aussie Passport sucked in!). I have high hopes of The Pawn and to satisfy our British cravings!
