Downton Abbey Returns to Port's Downtown

A TV series that is growing in popularity is also gaining traction for a downtown Port Washington event.

The show, Downton Abbey, inspired a tea party event at Baltica Tea Room, and business Owner Urszula Cholewinska said the occassion was a hit. 

"Our (first) Downton Abbey Party was a great success, and we are now running a (second) one!" Cholewinska wrote in an e-mail to Patch.

The event is planned to be an "unforgettable evening that will delight any Downton Abbey zealot," Baltica's promotion says.

The party includes English Afternoon Tea service, featuring:

• Tea sandwiches and desserts;
• Recipes from the Downton Cookbook; 
• White table linens, three-tier trays;
• And your own butler on stand by.

The evening will also include trivia and prizes, including a Best Hat contest.
