Featuring Tea Time at Chez Philippe, Stacy Chick's River Workout, 1st Synagogue in Memphis, Harbor Town, Sunset on the Mississippi River

High Tea at Chez Philippe
Peabody Hotel
149 Union Avenue
529-4000
Afternoon tea (as opposed to high tea which is actually a meal served at dinner time) is a custom that was originated with and largely reserved for aristocrats, since most people work in the afternoon.  Afternoon tea is also called “low tea” because it was usually taken in a sitting room or withdrawing room where low tables (like a coffee table) were placed near sofas or chairs.

In Downtown Memphis, the Peabody Hotel – a magnificent Mobil Four-Star, AAA Four-Diamond hotel – maintains this tradition in its restaurant Chez Philippe.  The Peabody’s Afternoon Tea includes savories, scones, sweets and dessert and your choice of the finest teas.

Afternoon tea is served Tuesday – Saturday starting at 2 pm with reservations required.

Mississippi River
The Mississippi River is the second largest river (2300 miles long).  Because Memphis occupies a substantial bluff rising from the Mississippi river bank, the area is a natural location for settlement. The Memphis area was first settled by the Mississippian Culture and then by the Chickasaw Indian tribe.  Because of its access to the river, Memphis became an important location for markets, exchanges, travel and distribution.  In 1925, the river also gave rise to the man called Memphis' "greatest hero"  when Tom Lee (for whom our riverside park is named), single-handedly saved thirty-two people from drowning when a steamer sank. Tom Lee could not swim.
