It will take the concept of formal hotel tea and move into the space of the Covent piazza, complete with classic crockery, &#145;20&#146;s themed music a gypsy tea-reader, and vintage accessories with which to adorn yourself. <p>It's the cheapest high tea we've heard of, with <b>tea and cakes for only £5</b> and Prosecco cocktails and cakes for £8, and the event will be followed up with a traditional Tea Dance lead by ladies in full 1920&#146;s attire, schooled in JetSetCD 2009-06-24T15:07:12-05:00 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/4/3/121614/3352 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/6193/G20Mandarin.jpg" class="top"> <p>April's Fools Day may be long over, but memories of the dinner that "Naked Chef" Jamie Oliver cooked for the G20 leaders in London that night will remain forever...or at least until it's all digested.
