For those who keep the Waldorf as their New York address between Palm Beach seasons, there is a fresh reason to linger at breakfast. The newly reopened landmark has brought out Lohralee Astor's own china for display, a set that carries the hotel's namesake family into its current rooms. It arrives alongside Elevenses, a new mid-morning meal the hotel has introduced with a distinctly British sensibility. The pairing gives longtime guests something worth the trip uptown before heading back south.

With reporting from Town & Country.
