Looking for a cultured Saturday adventure?  The Saint Paul Hotel is offering afternoon teas.

Lance Knapps, Saint Paul Hotel’s Executive Chef, creates a five-course tea that will delight your taste buds!  The tea course features fall delights such as Brie and Cranberry in Phyllo Cup, Ham and Preserves on a Cheddar Biscuit and Spinach Basil Pesto with Oven Dried Tomato.  Wow, that is just the first course!  The second course features a Braised Lamb and Wild Mushroom Leek Strudel with Port Wine Sauce.  If you’re not drooling yet, there’s something wrong with you!  For the third course, you’re served a Cranberry Scone with Lemon Butter.  For the fourth course consists of a Mini Corn Muffin, a Carmel Pecan Bar and an Apple Cheddar Tart.  If that isn’t carb overload at its finest, I don’t know what is.  Finally, you get rolled out the door after consuming a Pumpkin Cheesecake with Carmel Sauce.

At $27 per person, these teas are very affordable – tax and gratuity are included!
