Not so long ago, we went to Little Darling Diner in Balmain. My mother had never had High Tea before and with her love for cream teas I decided it was high time she sampled one in its most luxuriant form. The 'diner' was incredibly 'darling', with its wallpapered walls and brown leather armchairs. Since it was a lovely sunny afternoon, we were offered a table outside in the courtyard. The waiter brought us chilled champagne and carafes of water (which were constantly refilled).
