Well now you can do the same, just in a better way by actually making a beautiful start to your day with a breakfast meal at the Tiffany store.

The décor is classy in a tone of mesmerizing aquamarine; the color is an extension of the color palette used by the Tiffany from time immemorial. Blue might not your favorite color, but after visiting this café, it will be on the top of the list.

The high tea at the café is something we wouldn’t miss. Its delectable range of breads, sandwiches and savories are worth going for. The café is open regular store hours, which means you can eat, drink, shop and browse for that dream engagement ring.Buying a piece of jewelry is not just about shopping, but an experience and what could be better than Tiffany’s.
