A list of high tea reviews in Tokyo and beyond.
I’m on a mission to sample all of Tokyo’s high/afternoon tea offerings. Here, you can find links to the reviews and numerous photos of high tea/afternoon tea venues in Tokyo (Japan, and other parts of the world) that you can drool at. (Numbers refer to the order in which I partook in tea and not a ranking indication.)
Click each one for the review. (Sorry, some of the links are not active the moment, but most should be. Please check back in as I will update these soon).

Memoirs of Aleisha 
Thanks for the post. I enjoy afternoon tea in the states, but it seems like it’s reserved for more elegance in Japan. It’s nice to know what to expect from where you go.
