Afternoon tea is a very typical British concept. It usually consists of sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jam, cakes and pastries, preferably fresh from the bakery.

All of it is of course served with tea, or a glass of champagne if you like. There are quite a bit of rituals and rules to afternoon tea, if you wish to do it the correct and traditional way, from how to use your napkin to when to put sugar in your tea.

A Sunday roast is a very traditional British meal that you can also have at restaurants. It usually consists of roasted beef with mashed potatoes, carrots and Yorkshire pudding, gravy, apple sauce or mint sauce.
