Afternoon Tea
Did you know that the custom of afternoon tea among the British population has been established since 1840, when the Villa Servais was built. Queen Victoria of Great Britain didn’t usually want to wait for dinner to be served and would have a small afternoon meal prepared for herself, consisting of bread, butter, whipped cream, biscuits and cakes. She invited her friends to enjoy all the goodies. The concept of afternoon tea was born.
