时间倒退回到19世纪的英国维多利亚时代,贝德芙公爵的夫人安娜女士时常在下午四时左右感到意兴阑珊,因为此时既不到饭点,又觉得自己有点饿了,颇为无奈。最后,百无聊赖的她命女仆准备了少量的烤面包片、奶油和红茶以果腹,有时还邀请好友一起小坐聊天。渐渐地,这样一种消遣方式开始在英国的上流社会之间流传开来,名门贵族无不趋之若鹜。久而久之,俨然形成一种优雅自在的下午茶文化。下午茶一说,便是由此而来。细白的桌巾、精巧的点心、茶与咖啡香气氤氲,一个下午的悠闲时间就这么缓缓流逝而走。喝下午茶,有时候是为了打发时间,有时候是为了好友小聚,有时候则纯粹是兴致所在了。
Back in time to nineteenth-century British Victorian times, Anna Madame Bedaeux’s wife often feel resentment around 4 pm, because at this time neither to the meal, but also feel a bit hungry, quite helpless. Finally, the boring her life maid prepared a small amount of toast, cream and black tea to the belly, and sometimes invite friends to sit and chat. Gradually, such a pastime began to circulate among the upper-class societies of Britain, and all the noblemen of this genre flocked to it. Over time, it seems to form an elegant afternoon tea culture. Afternoon tea, it is from that. Small white doily, delicate snacks, tea and coffee aroma, a leisurely afternoon so slowly away. Afternoon tea, sometimes to pass the time, sometimes to a friend’s polygamy, sometimes purely a hobby.
