Shopping for Father’s Day isn’t always easy. What do you buy the dad that has everything, needs nothing or simply hasn’t a clue what he wants? If you’re short on inspiration, why not ditch the gifts and spoil him with some good old fashioned ‘you and him time’ and a one-of-a-kind experience?
NYX Hotel in Holborn has launched the world’s first Afternoon Tea centred around a love of the Mexican spirit, tequila. The perfect treat for Father’s Day, Afternoon TeaQuila combines British and Mexican traditional cuisines and features a sweet and savoury menu of luxurious delights.
A decadent dark chocolate & chilli brownie sits alongside a zesty key lime chilli posset and seasonal fruit tart while mini veggie burritos, chicken tacos, tequila grilled shrimps and stuffed baby peppers with Mexican beef will pique any dad’s palette with just the right amounts of tequila and spice.
Paying homage to the traditional afternoon tea, this sumptuous culinary experience will also include a scone accompanied by a tequila infused jam which packs both a sweet and boozy punch, and a bespoke hand-made cookie from London-based, biscuit company, Biscuiteers.
Served in the hotel’s funky, opulent restaurant on the ground floor, this fiesta on a cake stand includes ‘La Margarita’, a perfectly balanced cocktail featuring fresh lime juice, agave syrup and Volcán Tequila Blanco transporting guests to the shores of Mexico with one sip. A selection of additional margaritas is also available (see below for full menu).
Priced at £39.00 per person, bookings can be made via the website at www.nyx-hotels.co.uk/food. Show him how much you care and share a memorable experience this Father’s Day!
