Bring The Holidays To Life At The St Julien Hotel & Spa’s Gingerbread Teas!

Screen Shot 2013-12-06 at 6.58.28 AM

A local holiday favorite, the family-friendly Gingerbread Teas feature teas by Tea Forté, as well as scones, tea sandwiches and petits fours. The adults are entertained by music performed by Grammy winning pianist Ralph Sharon and his trio while children, donning a chef’s hat and apron, enjoy the opportunity to decorate gingerbread cookies, aided by a St Julien chef. This is super cute! Gingerbread Teas are held every Saturday and Sunday through Dec. 22, at noon and 2 p.m. More information here.
