ans of the royal family don't need to bribe an inside source to get the scoop on the late Queen Elizabeth II's favorite things to eat. Royal chefs have been more than willing to offer snapshots of a day in life at Her Royal Majesty's dining table, which usually played host to a simple breakfast of biscuits and Earl Grey (the queen's favorite tea), followed by a lemon-twisted gin and Dubonnet (which was the queen's favorite cocktail, no matter what Tom Hanks says), a healthful lunch of fish and vegetables, a fanciful afternoon tea filled with cream sponge and ginger cake, and a rounded dinner of meat and greens. With the news of her death, we have no doubt that her enormous legacy will live on in part through her love of food, in all its particularity. (And surely, the memorials held in her honor will include royal spreads of her favorite dishes.)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Of course, the queen's responsibilities extended far beyond dining and entertaining. As the head of state, the monarch also owned an eclectic variety of properties under the Crown Estate, including race courses, hotels, castles, an offshore energy compound, and a particularly posh outpost of one of the world's largest fast-food franchises (per Insider UK). That's right — the golden arches at Oxfordshire's Banbury Gateway Shopping Park was owned by the queen, and it shows.
