Kylie Jenner, the reality TV star and beauty mogul, recently graced the cover of British Vogue and took part in a delightful exploration of traditional British cuisine. Known for her adventurous spirit, Kylie sat down for an afternoon tea that took her far from her Californian comfort zone, as she sampled an array of classic English dishes. The self-proclaimed picky eater might not be a master of "scone etiquette",just yet, but by the end of this culinary journey, she could very well be on her way to becoming a connoisseur of British cuisine.
The experience kicked off with Kylie trying a quintessential British staple: tea. As the warm beverage set the tone, she moved on to a series of sandwiches that are as traditional as they come. First up was the chicken salad sandwich, a favorite for many but a first for Kylie. Her reaction hinted at a new-found appreciation for British flavors.
Next on her plate was the cucumber and cream cheese sandwich—a light and refreshing combination that intrigued her taste buds. Kylie followed this with an egg and cress sandwich, a classic choice that's as British as it gets. The subtle flavors left her pleasantly surprised, as she delved deeper into the world of English afternoon tea.
But it wasn't just about the savory; Kylie had a sweet adventure ahead.,The highlight for many, and certainly for Kylie, was the moment she dug into a freshly baked scone. Though she may not have known the proper way to enjoy it, with clotted cream and jam, her enthusiasm was undeniable. "Cheers!" she exclaimed, raising her teacup in delight.
The culinary journey didn't stop there. Strawberries and cream offered a taste of a traditional British dessert, followed by a coconut cream bundt cake that brought a tropical twist to the afternoon tea. To wrap up, Kylie sampled petit fours, those delicate, bite-sized confections that added a final flourish to the experience.
As Kylie Jenner savored each course, it became clear that she was not just indulging in British cuisine but embracing it with open arms. "I could do this every day," she remarked, a testament to the surprising joy she found in the simple yet elegant flavors of a British afternoon tea.
