Is the discount code for the Colony at the Ritz still valid? If so, do I explicitly ask for the discount by mentioning “ladyironchef15′” while booking a reservation online?

“High tea” term reffers to the dining table that used to serve tea. Served using mug, a cuppa or whatever available in the house is acceptable. High tea is blue collar version of afternoon tea. Because working-class doesn’t have the time to drink tea leisurely like noble, tea time combines with meals at the evening after the work is done. So a tea party with meal that served on dining table indeed a high tea.
Afternoon tea is the right term for posh and sophisticated tea-time for the nobles. Using bone china (from royal albert till herend or limoges), cake tier and fancy cakes serving in rococo coffee table (low table) this is how the noble women spend their time, a litle bit peckish but not ready for a full meal.

a 3 tier stand of various delicacies does NOT mean ‘high tea’ . I am sorry but if the tea is not served in a bone china tea cup, saucer and side plate I don’t believe it can be called ‘high tea’.
