High (Proof) Tea

Odd Society is pleased to partner with chef Tobias Grignon and host Toby Neumann of Rabbits Foot Culinary to present a unique afternoon tea experience on Mother’s Day, Sunday May 12.

A delightful arrangement of intricate bites* will be served along with a choice of warming teas and imaginative cocktails rooted in authentic flavour profiles including fermented, smoked, nutty, green, floral and sweet.

Afternoon tea was originally considered a short break from work or a way to help pass the long afternoon hours with nibbles and sips, and some light conversation. In keeping with the tradition of a leisurely food event that takes place sometime between lunch and supper, two seatings are offered for High (Proof) Tea: 12:30pm and 3:00pm.
