I was a little nervous because the staff spoke in English, wondering if I was eating the authentic dish in the UK

Of course, they will also speak to you in Japanese, so there's no need to worry, but you'll probably find yourself so swept up in the atmosphere that you can't help but stand up straight

It looks prestigious and I'm worried about the price!

There are also other reasonably priced menu items available, so there are several to choose from, so you can have fun choosing

You can enjoy it at the Ascot Tea Room for around 1,250 to 2,600 yen
