What Scone is
Soft baked cake with raisins, served with clotted cream and jam.
Scone is listed as a bakery item in the United Kingdom guide, where the index tags it vegetarian. The index uses those labels to make an unfamiliar menu legible. What it cannot tell you is how this particular kitchen seasons, fries or plates the dish, so leave room to ask.
