English afternoon tea - for men

A London hotel designs an afternoon tea menu aimed at men.

Afternoon tea has its roots in nineteenth century England where sandwiches and cakes would be eaten in the early afternoon, to fight hunger pangs.

A typical menu consists of finger sandwiches, scones and tea. But the Mandeville hotel in London has decided to make a change to the traditional afternoon tea, swapping cucumber sandwiches for roasted sirloin and chicken satay, hoping to attract the heteropolitan man.
