There was already a long queue at three o'clock, but everyone was seated quickly. It is rare to have seafood in afternoon tea, but if you don’t eat seafood, the choice of cooked food is quite limited. There are chicken wings, steamed dumplings, fish fillets, French fries, sushi, etc. There are also many dessert choices! Everyone is asked to leave on time because they are preparing for the evening show.
