"TEA AT THE GROSVENOR"

 

I'm dreaming of tea at The Grosvenor

And sieving through memory dregs

Like you, with your toasted tea cake

Atop a napkin on your legs

 

A resting place for the living

Overlooking those in their longest sleep

Cream and jam oozing from Victoria sponge

Fresh 'baked well' memories, tastes of life so sweet

 

I'm dreaming of Devil's chocolate gateau

That we once shared with a very long spoon

As ironic smiles preyed on our lips

While we savoured this heavenly tea room

 

Michael Ashby, Sidmouth

(The warmest of welcomes and the freshest of Frank's cakes & Bev's beverages awaits you at this 'classic English' scrumptilitious tea room. Please leave a chair for me!)

Here's a very special " Devil's chocolate gateau" made by myself and is a donation from The Grosvenor Tearoom to one of our regular customers for her charity event Friday 25th Sept.!
