It’s become a bit of a tradition over the last couple of
years, to celebrate my birthday with my Mum and sister, by booking in a special
afternoon tea. If you’ve been following me for the last year, you’ll know that
last year I hopped on a London Tour Bus for Afternoon Tea, which was truly
delectable and really set the bar pretty high.
This year I was lucky enough to head to Sugarhut, Brentwood
with my Mum to experience an afternoon tea for two, TOWIE-style. I’ve long
since stopped watching TOWIE, but as we headed towards the venue, I definitely
spotted a few of the spots the cast had previously filmed at!
If when you hear the word TOWIE and you immediately conjure
up thoughts of ‘vajazzles’ and ‘Joey Essex,’ you might be surprised to discover
that Sugarhut isn’t all rhinestones, veneers and perfect tans. As well as being
a nightclub, there’s a wonderful restaurant area where my Mum and I were seated
for our tea – lavish pink leather and velvet chairs, marble-topped accents and contemporary
lighting gives Sugarhut a really luxurious feel. In fact it really reminded me
of the photos I’d seen of Sketch in London (another bucket list location!)
We visted on a Monday afternoon and were lucky enough to
have the entire place to ourselves! Despite it being quiet Sugarhut never felt
like it lacked atmosphere, my Mum and I happily chatted away whilst we sipped
our bubbles whilst we listened to a bit of Amy Winehouse playing in the
background. The staff couldn’t do enough for us and were really friendly, even
offering us another round of sandwhiches, which we politely declined – I definitely
couldn’t have eaten another bite if I tried!
The food was truly wonderful, there was a tasty selection
of sandwich fillings, warm scones and an array of petit fours on the top tier
that were pure works of art – we had no problems sampling our way through the
tiers! I honestly thought it was excellent value for money, delicious and
a wonderful birthday treat, if you're looking for a a luxury afternoon tea that's got a bit star quality to it, definitely consider Sugarhut,
Until next time..
