Fortnum & Mason has a lot of royal roots, and the label "The Queen's Favorite" is worth a thousand words. The century-old store at Piccadilly Circus in the heart of the city never lacks visitors, and it's amazing to just stand outside and watch the exquisite window display.

The price of such a high-end place is naturally not low, especially the Scone scones and Sandwich sandwiches inside, and the rose tea is really awesome!

Lanka focuses on French pastries and Ceylon tea, but others say it is a fusion of British, French, Japanese and Sri Lankan.

Under the decoration of some seasonal flowers and plants, the glass room is like a greenhouse garden, which is pleasing to the eye. In addition, at the back of the interior is the emerald green tent full of Middle Eastern flavor and the red fabric row sofa.
