"On Saturdays and Sundays from 12-4pm, Kostali, the restaurant inside The Gwen in Streeterville, has a Tipsy Tea Party. It’s essentially high tea with cocktails, which means you’ll get tea, booze, and small bites like pecorino gougeres, cream cheese and caviar sandwiches, and saffron cake with jam. There are two seatings (12pm and 2pm), and packages range from $35-185 depending on what kind of tea party you want to have." - adrian kane
