No sooner had the warm liquid mixed with the crumbs touched my palate than a shudder ran through me and I stopped, intent upon the extraordinary thing that was happening to me. An exquisite pleasure had invaded my senses, something isolated, detached, with no suggestion of its origin. And at once the vicissitudes of life had become indifferent to me, its disasters innocuous, its brevity illusory – this new sensation having had on me the effect which love has of filling me with a precious essence; or rather this essence was not in me it was me. ... Whence did it come? What did it mean? How could I seize and apprehend it? ... And suddenly the memory revealed itself. 
— Marcel Proust, In Search of Lost Time

Cake and Tea. A symbolic ritualistic pairing that trancends time and culture. The intensely sensorial intermingling of comforting places, warm milky drinks and sweetly baked goods.


During this 'walk down memory lane', you will be served with Proust's Madeleine, a delicious French patisserie, together with a pot of wellness tea (dairy / non dairy). 
As you enjoy your tea and Madeleine, we will serve you a tray of memory infused scents, each one designed to evoke nostalgia and emotion.
Think themes like rain, Kaya toast and fresh dried linen to name but a few.

Choose your favourite scents and our mixologist will be able to prepare your own 10, 20 or 50ml keepsake Eau de Parfum. (optional extra priced per item)
