An afternoon cream tea is one of Britain’s most treasured tradition and now the Italian restaurant, Bella Italia, have launched their own offering with a twist on our favourite dishes.
Forget the afternoon cream tea you once knew as Bella Italia have got rid of the sandwiches and scones and added pizza and prosecco to their new dish, ‘Afternoon G&Tea’.
The meal starts with some cheesy pizzetta topped with a choice of Italian toppings like sweet roasted red peppers, parma ham, goats cheese and bufala mozzarella.
Next you move to an exciting part of Bella Italia’s new dish, an Italian twist on an English scone which has been combined with Panettone to make ‘Panescones’ which are served with a mascarpone and sweet strawberry jam.
To finish off your Italian dining experience, there is a selection of sweet treats to chose from including a classic tiramisu, a chocolate brownie with honeycomb pieces, strawberry cheesecake and coconut panna cotta.
To wash all of this delicious cuisine down, Bella Italia offer the choose between a Hendriks Gin and Tonic in a teapot, a glass of prosecco or you can opt for a cup of tea.
This exiting twist on a traditional English dish will launch in the restaurant this month, is available throughout the afternoon and costs £24.99 for two people.
