Afternoon Tea @ The Library, St Regis Downtown Dubai

May 21, 2022.Reading time 9 minutes.

Afternoon tea is a tradition that mum and I do – whenever she’s here. As such, I would actually say we have done most of the Afternoon Teas in Dubai, particularly those that were in the Entertainer. Past tense, because as we all know, most venues are (sadly) no longer part of the program. Whilst […]
