I wanted to see what the Brits considered 5 star. I found the Lanesborough, in
London. It is recorded that they
cater to guest’s requests from rare Japanese apples, zebra milk to a last
minute call for a five-course private dinner for eight as just being an average
day's work for the staff of on-call butlers.
Well, I’m sorry, we are fresh out of zebra milk on Mondays
and Thursdays……however, we make a fab espresso or cappuccino with almond milk,
homemade humus and pita and there’s usually beer, wine, water or juice, and
some fruit for you. If you book when the fruit trees are full of fruit, we have star fruit (carambola), bananas, tamarind, fig, loquat.
