Didn't feel like taking pictures of the food today but there are plenty here, which is more than enough supplementary info.We had the savories set for 2 today, which had 4 types of different sandwiches and 2 types of different scones. All of them are in small portion but that's fine, taste and presentation could compensate that.But the scones were really not my type - they were too dry, especially the round ones (the other type is essentially the same but just rectangular in shape with raisins).

But the scones were really not my type - they were too dry, especially the round ones (the other type is essentially the same but just rectangular in shape with raisins). I couldn't cut them across properly because the top just came off once I've put my knife into the side of it. It also crumbled like cookies, which is rather disappointing.
Though the scones were not for liking, the strawberries and rhubarb jam was fantastic. It's not too sweet nor sour, with enough tanginess and freshness and that provided a good balance with the clotted cream and the butter (a bit too rich?) in the scones. I'd say it's comparable to MO's rose petal jam. If I were to come back again for the scones, it would be because of the S&R jam (sorry for the short form), not the scones themselves.
I had the peach & passionfruit tea, it's so-so, was too happy that (1) the peach didn't smell/taste too fake and (2) the tea wasn't too sour.
