Mira E-shop recently has a new promotion just after Christmas and if you prepay, the price of the afternoon tea after discount is just a bit less than $400. You still need to check the availablity through calling them as well.For the tea, I chose their Red Balloon as it is more festive.The tea stand was really festive and to my mind, it looked even more festive than the promotion picture.The scones this time despite the cold weather was still warm when served, compared to the last time I went he
For the tea, I chose their Red Balloon as it is more festive.
The tea stand was really festive and to my mind, it looked even more festive than the promotion picture.
The scones this time despite the cold weather was still warm when served, compared to the last time I went here. My favorite savory was their snow crab quiche while the Mulled wine Jelly was definitely the most festive of all desserts. Their salted carmael mousse was also another outstanding dessert.
I gave this a great review as this should be Coco's rating. However, the service was a bit subpar but this is more for the Yamm's staff rather than Coco. Coco is actually quite small and during afternoon tea time, many of us will be arranged to sit at the Yamm's area. The junior staff at Yamm seems quite uncertain how to provide service to those that ordered the afternoon tea set rather than the afternoon tea buffet. They would suddenly take away my plate(just like someone finishing their plate during buffet) but then they won't give you a new one. When I asked for a new one, they looked very confused after I asked in Cantonese and English. Finally my friend asked by Putonghua and they finally understood but still remained puzzled by this request till more senior staff passed by and gave me back a new plate. Later, when I finished my pot of tea, they wanted to take it away instead of asking whether I am finished or do I need to refill the tea pot with hot water. I again asked them to stop(in Putonghua this time) yet they still seem puzzled by the request till another senior staff came. Hence my topic that more training needs to be provided to them.Regarding the language barrier, if a customer tries to communicate with you, you can politely start with saying "Sorry, I only know Putonghua" rather than just standing there. The staff from Coco were very proficient and this time quickly scanned the QR code instead of the delay like last year. I still rated the service as 4 stars as it seemed unfair to rate the entire service of Coco here due the above problems of Yamm but I definitely cannot give 5 stars.
