It didn't take much persuasion to encourage me to stay the whole weekend in London especially when 'A' offered to take me to Harrods! The building is amazing if a bit over the top.......I just love the food hall it's like stepping into a kind of Willy Wonka magical world of food....
Oh my goodness! What an amazing place - your photos are glorious! :)
ReplyDelete... remind me to run away on an adventure with you sometime soon! ;)
Oh! I don't know whether to clap with joy or burst into tears - beautiful photos, very evocative of that OTT decadence that Harrods specialises in... though I think I'm more of a Fortnum's gal myself!
ReplyDeleteTracey took the words right out of my mouth - glorious! Thanks for posting so many images too. Isn't it lovely to know that there are places like this in the world?
ReplyDeleteIt's great when you need a change of scenery. It has that amazing over- the-top, theatrical kind of kitsch 1950's continental feel to it.....I'm sure the staff are all frustrated actors...there's a real element of theatre going on......
ReplyDeleteBut Fortnum & Mason is a totally different kettle of fish...it's elegant and tasteful, amazing tea.....I love the morning jacket's the staff wear and can just imagine bumping into Jane Austen having afternoon tea there......
I love them both equally...
