Experience the High Tea service at the Tea Room in Cauley Square |The new herald drinks tea in this adorable and picturesque historical place of southern Miami-Dade

Tired of the striking South Beach?Or the Selfies Central, also known as Brickell?Are you not modern enough for Wynwood?Then think of making a trip south, to the south of truth, to Cauley Square, in Goulds.

This former Railway Village, built in 1903 by the pioneer farmer William H.Cauley and declared historical place in 1994, it continues to work, after surviving at least three great hurricanes.The crown jewel of the rustic outdoor shopping center is Tea Room, open since 1974.

In 2013, Verónica Gobin bought the fantasy and evocative place and since then she has converted the afternoon service with pinkings built in the show star.Although it is a rarity in these parts, this civilized tradition is very alive on the other side of the puddle.

"I have always liked the concept of tea," says the Honduran from the outer patio, full of foliage, a few tables and a mural of two Victorian women drinking tea with delicacy."I have visited European tea rooms in England and Holland and I have worked to recreate them here for the people of Miami".

Gobin also made sure to maintain the same style, decoration and environment as the original owner, Martha Wade, an antique collector.Here you will not find clean lines in the style of soveery, velvet strings or elegant LEDs.Rather, these are hats for the Passover parade, charmingly unequal chairs, primorous lace curtains and Tiffany -style crystal lamps from northern antiquities fairs.

Among the six thematic rooms, our favorite is "the butterfly", with jungle green walls and yes, butterflies in abundance.Do not miss the Windsor room, the most popular (and the one that is usually more full), with its original Steinway piano that still sounds, but has a tempting poster of “not touch” on the worn keys.

Add a little class to her Instagram feed asking for the aforementioned High Tea, showing her followers the queen who is.

It is not just a meal, but an experience.First you will choose your tea;The Earl Gray is the favorite, or try the Bombay Chai, for a more daring and spicy touch.Then the soup.The French onion soup is the most requested or also the waiter will offer you the soup of the day, among which are the lentils, tomato, shrimp or peas.

Be careful not to exceed when fresh, hot and aromatic blueberries come out, with a real -rose butter thoughter.

The drama of the silver tray entrance is impressive: three levels of female happiness.Sandwiches in rectangles (without bark, naturally) include nova smoked salmon with cream cheese;Chicken salad with blueberries;and cucumber with capers.There are also mini quichés, devilish eggs, as well as exquisite macaroni, cookies and miniature pays made by Gobin's sister, Ingrid Rojas.

Then, you can lower the calories in the fantasy and green town of 10 acres, with a central garden that has become a wedding destination, with small stores in adorable houses that used to house the railroad workers.There is a apothecary, a clothing store, a photographic study and much more.

Do it for the grandmother and, incidentally, label Meghan Markle.
