    The overall experience was great. A very minor issue was that, out of the three people who served us (greeted us, brought the drinks and the food, ... etc.), only one person made eye-contact with me. The other two didn't say anything when they dropped off the drinks and the food, even though I said 'thank you.' Strange... This was as if they didn't want to be there or do what they were doing. Grumpy on a Monday morning, I guess...

    What's the best experience to do in London? An afternoon tea, of course. I went to the Westin London city hotel and I absolutely loved the Christmas in the woods afternoon tea. Special mention to the citrus and dill mayonnaise infused Cornish crab on a mini bun and the scones freshly baked. The hotel was so nice with the Christmas decorations. The tea was excellent and the staff very attentive and helpful.
