Butchart Gardens III - Tea Room

While we were touring the Butchart Gardens, we took a break and had tea in the tea room. The tea room was overlooking the ocean and Tuscan garden. The ambiance made the whole experience unforgettable.

I fell in love with the watercolor rose themed menu card.

Take a look at the view from the tea room. Is there is anything lovelier than sipping tea and eating pastries while enjoying this view?

Sipping tea never tasted better!

The tea room was filled with beautiful flower arrangements. Notice the combination of flowers in each arrangement. Loved each and every one of them.

We started off our tea with a seasoned berry trifle. Yum!

And then came the tea sandwiches and pastries. Everything tasted as good as it looked.

 Candied ginger scones with strawberry jam and Devon-style cream.

 I could not decide which was better, the food or the view. One better than the other.
