"TEA AT THE GROSVENOR"
I'm dreaming of tea at The Grosvenor
And sieving through memory dregs
Like you, with your toasted tea cake
Atop a napkin on your legs
A resting place for the living
Overlooking those in their longest sleep
Cream and jam oozing from Victoria sponge
Fresh 'baked well' memories, t astes of life so sweet
I'm dreaming of Devil's chocolate gateau
That we once shared with a very long spoon
As ironic smiles preyed on our lips
While we savoured this heavenly tea room
Michael Ashby, Sidmouth
(The warmest of welcomes and the freshest of Frank's cakes & Bev's beverages awaits you at this 'classic English' scrumptilitious tea room. Please leave a chair for me!)
Here's a very special " Devil's chocolate gateau" made by myself and is a donation from The Grosvenor Tearoom to one of our regular customers for her charity event Friday 25th Sept.!
