KOUDA Japanese Restaurant is currently offering a crossover afternoon tea set with Elizabeth Arden. The set is named Brightening Summer Afternoon Tea and is offered at HK$548 for two persons. Given many hotels price afternoon tea sets aggressively, I think KOUDA’s price is pretty reasonable.Savoury* Braised chicken with chestnut in puff pastry* Surf-clam & avocado salad with rice cake* Mini burger with Japanese ginger pork* Matsuba crab meat on tofu* Prawns with mango mayonnaiseMost of the savou
Savoury
* Braised chicken with chestnut in puff pastry
* Surf-clam & avocado salad with rice cake
* Mini burger with Japanese ginger pork
* Matsuba crab meat on tofu
* Prawns with mango mayonnaise
Most of the savoury snacks are Japanese-inspired and they taste good. There is an Elizabeth Arden flag on top of the mini burger which makes it Instagrammable.
Pastries
* Blackcurrent and dark chocolate mousse cake
* Strawberry cheesecake
* Lime and ginger madeleine
* Caramel macadamia nut chestnut tart
* Green apple and blood orange mousse
The cakes and tarts are visually appealing. My personal favourite is the dark chocolate mousse cake. The bitterness of dark chocolate, the crunchiness of wafer and the sourness of raspberry all mix together to create a sophisticated dessert.
Scones
* Plain scone
* Raisin scone
Served with clotted cream and rose strawberry jam
These are the must-have traditional scone flavours. An afternoon tea is not complete without scones - don’t you agree? 😉
To our surprise, the tea set also comes with free vouchers to redeem Elizabeth Arden trial kits!
Also I’d like to mention that I’m very happy with the service provided by waitresses and waiters at KOUDA. They are responsive and polite.
Overall a pleasant afternoon tea experience.
