If you want to be pampered and float in serenity, the Four Seasons in Las Vegas is for you.  The Four Seasons is attached to the Mandalay Bay, but it is run as a separate property.  Floor to ceiling windows offer spectacular views of Las Vegas.  Luxury amenities include bathrobes, down pillows and high speed internet access.

The Veranda Cafe serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, in addition to high tea.  The Cafe, however, is going through renovations now, and meals are served in the Charlie Palmer Steakhouse next door.  Renovations should be done by mid-August, 2004.  No high tea until the Cafe reopens in August.  

The atmosphere in the Veranda is superb:  comfortable yet elegant.  Outdoor seating on the terrace provides a view of the pool.

High Tea

What is "high tea"?

What is "high tea"?

The Four Seasons serves tea from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., and the correct term is "afternoon tea" or "low tea."  But most people here probably wouldn't know the difference between high or low tea.  

In England, high tea traditionally is a more substantial meal, while afternoon tea consists more snacks like dainty sandwiches.  It's a relaxing endeavor allowing the tea sippers to pass the time by chatting about relaxing things.

At the Four Seasons, they serve scones, tiny sandwiches (cucumber; salmon; egg; prosciutto), and fruit tarts.

In our fast-paced lives, it might be hard for people to take a couple of hours in the afternoon to just relax and sip tea.
