"The Embassy happens to have the first imports of British beef, which I'm more than happy to use for this special occasion. Bend the rules a little bit."
"We do make it a little bit more interesting by pickling the cucumbers slightly."
King Charles III and Queen Camilla visited the British Embassy in the U.S. on their first day, attending a garden party with afternoon tea. The menu included traditional items like Scottish smoked salmon and cucumber sandwiches, but also featured a roast beef and horseradish sandwich, which is not typical for afternoon tea. Chef Craig Harnden noted the use of British beef and slightly pickled cucumbers to add a twist to the classic menu. Scones were served with clotted cream and strawberry jam, adhering to tradition.
