Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome!
Review: I actually bought this for a friends b-day present and ended up keeping it for myself and getting him another one, I looked through it and realized that it was packed with so many delicate yet simple recipes, even a delicious doughnut section.
it's not a big book, but the info is. Enjoy;)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Like Being Back in London!
Review: I heard that this is a very good book from 1 of the chefs at the Savoy in London. Can't really tell how it is, but as soon as I get it I will review it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Tea time's a pleasure!
Review: I saw Anton Edelmann and his lovely book on the Martha Stewart Show. They made lovely, yet simple treats and made my mouth water. I was so taken, I've bought two already, and will most likely buy more as gifts.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: If you want traditional British, look elsewhere
Review: I was looking for authentic English recipes for afternoon tea and was disappointed when I got this book. A lot of the recipes have more of an international flair (e.g.,smoked salmon BAGEL, cheese puff guacamole, pineapple & ginger cake) and the author does explain that the chefs give their offerings a modern, alterated twist. Admittedly, these recipes look very delicious, but I wanted something more specific to traditional British tea time.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Tea Time
Review: My daughter and I spent a cold, early fall afternoon sipping tea and eating sinfully delicious treats at the Savoy. It remains one of our most pleasant memories of the time we shared in London while she was studying there. Tea at the Savoy is about as special as the trip itself, and this little cookbook brings back the wonderful memories. Maybe I will even try to make a few of the recipes! The book is a must for anyone who ever had the pleasure of tea at the Savoy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's so dainty!
Review: Teatime is so dainty, and so is this small book about it! I bought this book as a gift for a tea-lover after seing it on "Martha Stewart Living." It is a great cookbook for someone just learning about the art and methods of giving high tea. I recommend it to those curious about this tradition, as well as home cooks who wish to add small delicacies to their repetoir.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a perfect guide for this quintessential British pleasure
Review: There could hardly be a better person to write about the indulgence of a stylish afternoon tea than the chef of the legendary London Savoy Hotel, Anton Edelmann. And he presents, accompanied by beautiful pictures, the best recipes for different savouries to start with, recipes for scones (with 5 different variations) but also cakes, biscuits and pastries. Edelmann provides a perfect guide for this quintessential British pleasure.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Nifty little book with some great recipes
Review: This book is not quite as good as the very similar "Afternoon Tea at the Ritz London", but it is stil very good indeed and it has some great receipes to try out for your next afternoon tea - the sandwich receipes in particular are great and quite easy to do.

Summary: A true Treasure
Review: This cookbook has quickly moved to my top 10 favorites in the kitchen. The receipes are simple and straight forward. Food that can quickly be cooked before a nice cup of tea. I have cooked my way through the cookbook and haven't found a receipe I didn't enjoy. Of course the scone receipe has been cooked the most. A true treasure in the kitchen.
