celebrations. \u00a0In fact, one year my New Year&#8217;s resolution was to visit it at least once a month that year, and I did! \u00a0It was an easy resolution to keep because they change their set menu every month, so, it is always new. \u00a0We even had Jordan&#8217;s bridal luncheon there last year.<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-2358\"

entree, tea sandwiches, and sweets. \u00a0Yes, it is a lot of food, and we always leave there stuffed. \u00a0We try to either skip dinner or eat a light dinner after having tea at the
