This year our holiday Santa will be decidedly Hawaiian in spirit and attire—sporting flip flops and a sharing the Aloha spirit with everyone. Santa will visit your tea table with our photographer taking digital pictures to e-mail to you following the event. This special afternoon holiday tea experience for youngsters combines a child-friendly tea menu that includes grilled cheese, Nutella and banana bites, and fluffy nutters (peanut butter and marshmallow fluff sandwiches), along with more sophisticated offerings such as smoked salmon cucumber canapes and vegetable flat bread pizza. Kids will also love the Linzer tarts, cream puffs, and cranberry, currant, orange and chocolate chip scones.
