High Tea at the Adolphous 

I had such a lovely time at The Adolphus Hotel in Dallas. There were tables of ladies chatting, children learning this lovely ritual and gentlemen enjoying their tea. 

Consider tea for the holidays with your whole family. It makes a great tradition.

Exquisitely executed, Tea at The Adolphus is served in the beautiful French Room dining room. A storied tradition, the tea service is filled with delight and surprise, from the menu curated by our culinary team to the custom china.

During each sitting, guests can enjoy a three-course menu of tea sandwiches, scones and pastries paired with loose leaf teas from local purveyor, Zatki, who creates a special tea blend just for The Adolphus. 

Both the green tea and the black tea were so expertly chosen and brewed. They were delicious and smooth as silk. 

Our champagne wishes and caviar dreams came true during our tea service. We enjoyed Regis Ova Siberian Reserve Caviar. Its clean and lightly creamy taste is perfect to enjoy on its own which we did or add  buckwheat blinis  with crème fraîche and shaved yolk and all the other toppings which we also did. 

Often the phrases “afternoon tea” and “high tea” are used interchangeably as many mistakenly believe that there is no difference. Both tea traditions are steeped in British history and the differences, subtle as they may be, are a direct result of their origins.

The origins of afternoon tea show clearly it was the preserve of the rich in the 19th century. For workers in the newly industrialized Britain, tea time had to wait until after work. By that hour, tea was generally served with heartier dishes which were substantially more than just tea and cakes.

DALLAS VEIN INSTITUTE. 

I have had problems with the veins in my legs for as long as I can remember.  I have had them striped and injected to really no avail.  It is not just a matter of how they look it’s the pain and heaviness the lack of good circulation. I was lucky to find the Dallas vein institute and have been through procedures on both of my legs over a period of one month. I thought I would give you a little information on my experience and the new technologies available.  


Vein disorders affect millions of people, and if these disorders aren’t properly managed and treated, serious consequences can arise. I was fortunate enough to jeetmVaricose vein specialist Dr. Dev Batra who focuses on offering comprehensive treatments, fully educating his patients, keeping them comfortable during procedures, and providing specific solutions for individuals seeking relief from cosmetic and medically complex vein problems.


Dr. Basra and the team use cutting-edge technology for vein therapy. This includes minimally invasive procedures that allow the team to address most vein problems with little, if any, pain during treatment, leading to more rapid recovery times.
Dallas Vein Institute is adept at the treatment of a large number of vein conditions. For example, Dr. Batra uses ClosureFast™ thermal vein closure radiofrequency techniques, and the VenaSeal™ closure system for the ablation of diseased veins, thereby rerouting blood flow to adjacent, healthy veins. Dr. Batra offers sclerotherapy procedures to treat spider veins and varicose veins.

Advanced technologies also address chronic venous insufficiency, deep vein thrombosis, leg itching and burningleg pain and swellingrestless leg syndromeskin pigmentation, and venous ulcers.
The team at Dallas Vein Institute is dedicated to long-term follow-up care, even after successful treatment, to ensure that your legs stay healthy and happy, perhaps best exemplified by the practice’s motto: “Get your legs back.”
  I know you can too!  If you are suffering like I was do some research  in you area. You will be glad you did.
