“High Tea at The Mount Nelson”
We went for high tea at The Mount Nelson and it was delightful! Our waitress, Asanda, was helpful and kind. The cake and savoury stands were delicious. There was live piano music for the duration of the outing. An overall lovely experience and I hope to come back soon!
