Blue Aster

"One of Nashville’s swankier new hotel additions, The Conrad, also boasts a lavish afternoon tea at its chic restaurant, Blue Aster. Loose-leaf tea from Rare Tea Co., tea sandwiches, pastries, scones with clotted cream, and a complimentary glass of sparkling are on offer, with seasonal themes like a Grinch-themed Christmas tea (with an appearance from the real-life green guy) thrown into the mix. Afternoon tea is available Friday-Saturday for $85 per person; reservations are required." - Ellen Fort

"Life’s a masquerade at Blue Aster this New Year’s Eve.

Live entertainment and a ball drop with a Champagne toast are included. Tickets can be found on Opentable." - Ellen Fort
