London Part 2: Americans First Afternoon Tea at the Brown's Hotel and Where Bourdain Ate Scotch Eggs

Afternoon tea is a must when in England (‪@VisitLondonOfficial‬). The Drawing Room at Brown's Hotel (‪@Roccofortehotels‬) delivers excellent service, tasty finger sandwiches, high quality tea and unforgettable scones. Of course we had to see the typical attractions like Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and London Eye to name a few. We could have spent the whole day at ‪@boroughmarket1047‬ sampling food from all over the world. If you are a fan of Anthony Bourdain, make the trek to Princess Victoria Pub...the same spot where he ate Scotch Eggs with ‪@NigellaLawsonChannel‬.
Our videos are beyond a simple travel guide, vlog or a list of travel tips. We want to inspire you to explore and see the city yourself! And there is a reason why people travel for food!

    Civilised indeed, and credit must be added, for distinguishing the differences, between Devon and Cornwall. I'm from Kensington and Chelsea in London; originally. Lived in the ☀ for a number of years. Ironically in this video, that I've enclosed, which you seem to have a cullinary penchant for ☺ I don't live in UK 🇬🇧 anymore I'm in a better climate. I play 🎾 with my friends from Western Europe and Scandinavia. Sit outside cafes with them, discussing politics, sport bla de bla. They all speak English, most do in that part of the world; for decades. I cycle everywhere, on a fantastic boulevard, beachfrontage infrastructure. I was a British English language consultant in Kyiv one year; and Odessa three. In Ukraine. (Male dominated society, you'd love it 😂) I left Odessa, ten months before vladolf putler invaded (a hunch) My mother was from Britanny by the way 😂 🇫🇷 My dad from Berlin....me...I'm from Kensington and Chelsea in London originally; but no English in my ancestry; as I researched it 😂 Live in Alanya region 🇹🇷, of the beautiful Med Sea climate nowadays. Coincidentally another male dominated society 320 sunny days a year; and heavenly for an 'Englishman' 😂 Dec averaged 22c and Jan 21c. About 4 days ☔ each month. Feb/Mar not cold either....a little more in fact 23c. Again 4 days ☔ collectively. April was 25c plus and 4 days ☔ May a little hotter at 29c 1 day rain...Coronation 👉 🇬🇧 👑 day. ☺ June no rain and averaged 34c. July off the scale and no rain. Today is 1st August 2023 and it's been 48c ☀ 🔥. As you are aware, there's been a heatwave for almost 6 weeks here. Some days by 4pm it's been 56c. I'm acclimatised at 37c but anything hotter and I'm not. Pushing it I spose 40c 😰 I've adapted to this heatwave, and go to the beach at 6am, returning at 10am, before it rises considerably. Even at 6am it's 31c for the last 4 weeks. Doesn't fall under that at night either. Med Sea is like a jacuzzi 😂 (Aircon controlled means I sleep soundly). Media in 🇬🇧 say 23c is 😂 a "scorcher" in 🇬🇧 I live here because of Brexit. (Another hunch 😂 ) Prices very low for us....cigarettes £1.25 single pack of 20. (I don't smoke, it's a good gauge for prices though) My monthly rent overlooking the Med Sea is 350 euros. All mod cons just 6 years old. My electric and water bill last month, combined was £12. That's like late 1960s UK prices. 🤔 (Gas heating unnecessary not in my apt anyway) You can work out the cost of everything else; just based on what I've written. But it's about two thirds less, of what I'd pay in UK; and Europe. British tourists recently told me that. Fresh produce is the norm, at incredibly low prices, at farmers bazaars. I'm 5 mins walk from here 👍 All year round it's pretty much the same. This video about Nov 2022. My dad worked on the Ford Ghia all models. A German engineer. We lived in Tampa Bay for three years, when I was a junior, before being transferred back to London. Sold my place; because you can't take it 👉 💷 with you. Brits are obsessed about how much their property is worth, live frugally, die; and fail to take advantage of that equity. In UK, I'd had enough of being dictated to; by minority groups. It's much more relaxing; after having left. Finally, the dreary weather in UK DOES affect thinking. Also personal appearance, with most UK people possessing dark circles; under their eyes. (Lack of sunlight) you don't notice it until you leave. Not so where I've been; and am currently. kzread.info/dash/bejne/Zophxal6nJnIqLA.html Your video: It's a well balanced account, with subtlety; and let's the viewer draw their own conclusions. Thanks 😉 👍 👇 🇬🇧🤝🇺🇸

    I live near the Princess Victoria - They have changed ownership... so whatever you ordered was not the quality that Bourdain had.. I am not trying to be negative (But it is not the same chef, nor menu since 2020) *sorry*

    Oh that is disappointing to hear! Well it was our first Scotish egg and was still quite good. We are excited to hear that there other places that serve a better version. We would love to hear some recommendations!

    You did it wrong , you scoop a whacking Dollop of clouted cream , then a spoonful of jam , you put way too little on it , you almost have too crane your mouth open for it too fit in , then you know you’ve done it correctly, from a Devonshire lad born and bred .

    Now we know for next time we need to spread triple the amount of cream and jam on the scones. You know we Americans don't have this back at home. Otherwise we would be eating it everyday.
