If you missed their signature afternoon tea, never fear, guests can again enjoy this grand event as well. Tea has been served here since the hotel opened in 1907, and many favorites, such as the harpist, are again present. In addition to a beautifully redesigned Palm Court, French chef Didler Virot serves up a new gourmet menu in courses rather than on the usual tea trays. One of the most expensive teas in the city, it’s also the most popular. Make a reservation and check out The Plaza’s new $1,000-per-night rooms. fairmont.com/theplaza. 14 Luxury Life & Style May/June 2008 Photos of the Plaza courtesy of Fairmont Hotels and Resorts. http://centertheatregroup.com http://fairmont.com/theplaza
