Afternoon tea

Afternoon tea is spending time to enjoy tea with snacks between lunch and dinner.

It's a lifestyle that started in the 19th century in the English aristocracy.

As afternoon teas culture spreads around the world, 

it is now easily seen even in non-british countries.

Especially, hotels and luxury restaurants serve afternoon tea as their menus.
