hillvalley Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I would like to take a group of inner city high school girls to tea on a Wednesday. It would be 11-12 people. My parameters are we have to go on a Wednesday in the late morning, $20 a head will be a stretch but doable, and it has to be between downtown DC, Silver Spring, and Bethesda. Alternatively, if anyone knows a caterer who would work with us, we could hold it at school. If anyone has contacts that could help I would appreciate it. This will be a once in a lifetime opportunity for many of the girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TedE Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Does it need to be a traditional English tea? Ching Ching Cha does a fixed price tea daily (and well under $20/person if I recall). The only other one that comes to mind is the Mayflower tea room, but that is undoubtedly over budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillvalley Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Yes, I'm looking for high tea. Unfortunately Chinese tea would be well beyond their comfort zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.A.R. Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 You can try the Henley Park Hotel on Mass Ave near the convention center. They used to serve tea in a small room off the lobby. If they still do, it'd be perfect for this group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodeats Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I don't know if they can work with you, but I've heard positive things about Tea with Mrs. B. Other places are the Park Hyatt or Teaism, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookluvingbabe Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 RSVP catering used to do the tea at the Cathedral. I have no idea if they still do and my favorite account rep has since left but they might be able to help you do something catered at school.

DonRocks Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Tea with Mrs. B is a great idea, and if you need me to call and negotiate the prices down, I will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
