English High Tea Package

English High Tea Package

In England, it is tradition to have a tea in the afternoon. Especially for its travellers, the Miljoenenlijn combines this historical custom with a steam train ride on the Miljoenenlijn. While enjoying the beautiful views, travellers are served an original High Tea in the dining car. Of course, entirely according to typical English custom with sandwiches, scones and three deliciously smelling types of tea!

The English High Tea consists of:

  • Scones with lemon curd and strawberry jam
  • Multigrain roll with chicken breast and curry salad
  • Brioche bread roll with dried ham and melon
  • Three layer sandwich with fresh cream cheese and smoked salmon
  • Three-layer tomato sandwich with brie and cucumber
  • Chocolate cake
  • Almond pastry
  • Pralines
  • 3 kinds of tea
