Tea and scones at Smith and Hsu in Taipei...
My favourite afternoon spot in Taipei and in fact THE BEST place for scones, worldwide! Even in the UK, where the scone was originated, I have not found a place that makes as good as scone as does Smith and Hsu. I love their rustic minimalism, with fresh scones served on a wooden board and an array of sample teas in little glass jars displayed on a wooden tray.
The only complaint I have is the pitiful size the jam and cream comes in - enough only for one scone spread in moderation. An extra helping would cost you, and not with a very pleasant apology either from the staff.
