Queen of punk offers tea and scones

At Vivienne Westwood's first-ever cafe in Shanghai, the bittersweet coffee and sweet lemon meringue tart seems to have little in common with the British Queen of Punk.

Westwood is usually described with the terms "punk rock", "controversial" and "crackpot". Delicate afternoon teas seem to inhabit a different world.

But Westwood's team at the cafe will take pains to convince you that the treats, not to mention the ambience that was "remotely created" by the fashion designer back in London, is the very essence of Dame Vivienne Westwood.
