Laduree X Mandarin Mo Bar Yes . Right . No illusion . It's high tea time again . Again and again!This is a vicious circle . Let me tell you the fact , while all females in the world are complaining having high tea or desserts will gain weights or getting fat , their mouths still non stop eating on desserts and craving for high tea as much as they could . Then after the high tea , they may said" let's keep fit "for a day ,and after that particular day , it straight back to high tea . This is ever
Bottom level- Scones
Medium level- Salty savories
Next come to Beetroot Foie Gras Macaron . This is very interesting and playful. I enjoy this savory in one mouthfuls . Macaron is more like like egg white crust . The foundation is extra flaky and it will melt swiftly on your tongue while the beetroot hint still lingering on your palate . Foie gras mousse is rich in flavors and dense enough, yet won't cover the beetroot hint . Both of them complement each other fabulously and successfully stimulate your taste buds . I specially enjoy this unique savory.
The middle one is Air-baguette Wrapped with Bayonne Ham & Camembert Mousse. Baguette actual is just the shape , it is extra thin and empty inside that simply fill up with Camembert cheese cream . The texture is greatly crispy and tastes delicious . The whole thing is very light , it would be better just if the content can be more fruitful and the Bayonne Ham can top more on the baguette . This snack looks empty and lonely.
Next we tried Duck Rillettes with Mushroom & Mandarin next . This tastes awful . It is like a baked bun with a filling content . I can't even taste any duck rillettes filling , but all I can feel is heavy and tasteless . This is more like a plain bun, texture is really dry and bland though. Although the content seems plentiful and plump . It is overwhelming .
The last one come to Quiche Lorraine with Smoked Bacon and Gruyere Cheese . This is glamorous with a passionate heart and character . Flower petal sprinkled on to dazzle the presentation , look more colorful. I think this is probably the best of the savories. The quiche lorraine is buttery and crumbly but not filling or heavy . The texture is flaky and crunchy , very arousing . Bacon and cheese is briny tasty , successfully evaluated the taste to be more palatable with distinctive layers . This is recommended in both taste and texture .
Upper level - Sweet delights
When it talks about Laduree , their rose flavor is a must to have a try , this signature were also included in the high tea set . Ladurée sweets are not just pleasure, but a philosophy, a nice way to approach our times with nobility. The macarons were needless to say , texture is impeccable with a chewy content , crispy outside , but flaky soft inside , it smells heavenly good , the tastes are excellently sweet with natural rose petal hint . Absolute heaven . This is above average.
Middle one is Pistachio & Raspberry Eclair . The white chocolate piece on top was almond-flavored , somehow , I think this is useless to add on top . The white chocolate is sweet and artificial, it can't help to improve the performance at all ,but even worse . The sweetness of the chocolate is offset by the raspberries , but the raspberries are not that fresh and fruity. The pistachio cream looks likable but isn't strong enough . The main point is I didn't feel the flavors working together at all . This is a waste with such graceful outlook .
Then went back to another macaron - Chocolate Platinum. This macaron is a limited edition flavor for the high tea set .Delicacies to be offered or to offer due to Laduree innovation and creativity. This platinum layer is eye- catching and enchanting . Bling bling layers are superlative . But the macaroon shells are filled with a citrus-flavored filling tastes unpleasant . Even though I appreciate the outlook and such daring combination . However , the chocolate filling is not strong even to stand out and the mandarin hint is a bit artificial . It seems that they don't match well , generally tastes odd and wired . But the texture yet up to standard .
Lastly come to Chocolate & Peanut Tart. This is the best . The pastry is a very impressive chocolate temptation . Look grand with macadamia nut . The macadamia nut on top gave out a nutty hint . Chocolate is dense and rich , not too sweet but blend harmoniously with the peanut paste . The whole filling is rich in favor , both tastes and texture certainly moves me . The richness is thick , but still maintain its mellowness and bitterness. This delicacies are exactly my cup of tea since I am a chocoholic ! I won't mind having more for this . This is highly recommended .
