A New York city treasure! Since it opened its gates in 1927, The Russian Tea Room is certainly glamourous in every sense of the word! The red and golds of the interior are lush and welcoming. If you are feeling rather indulgent, treat mum to the Royal High Tea service! At $85 a pop (or $115 is you want to add some bubbly) you can find youself enjoying finger sandwich, caviar, scones, cupcakes and petite fours. Must try the wild cheeries in syrup that give the brew a fuller flavor. Magnificent!
