I was really glad I tried their afternoon tea set because there are not many good ones in Hong Kong, most are localized or too sweet, which is a waste of money.The décor of this café was really nice and I liked the red phone booth and the almost real backdrop.Tried the afternoon set which was presented on this elegant metal stand.++++++++++++++++++The tea set has sweet and savoury so I started off with the first tier which had croissants filled with truffle and there was smoked salmon with cream
The décor of this café was really nice and I liked the red phone booth and the almost real backdrop.
Tried the afternoon set which was presented on this elegant metal stand.
++++++++++++++++++The tea set has sweet and savoury so I started off with the first tier which had croissants filled with truffle and there was smoked salmon with cream cheese and caviar.
The croissants were really flaky and crispy flavoured by the delicious truffle filling.After having the croissant I had the salmon and cream cheese which never fails.
++++++++++++++++++
On the second tier, I had the ciabatta bun topped with Egg and mayonnaise which was creamy mashed egg mixed with proper mayonnaise.
Next were the sliders which had so much crabmeat in them.
It was nice there was parma ham and melon as well which was light and scrumptious.
All the items in the savoury tiers were good, there was a perfect balance of something light and filling.
++++++++++++++++++Lastly, it was the sweet treats.
Normally there are four slices of cake: Tofu, Pear, Lychee and Hawthorn berry.
As the owner had a new cake, he gave it to us to try.
I was impressed because these cakes were not too sweet.The tofu cake was the best because it was like eating a block of tofu on a biscuit crumb base. Then I had the pear cake which had a layer of pear puree that gave it that extra fruity touch.
The other cakes also had this puree jelly layer so they tasted really natural.
Anyway, the new cake was pandan which I detected immediately because I love pandan and it had a lovely creamy taste with delicate pandan aroma.
After trying the cakes, I moved on to the green tea scones and banana and walnut muffins which were fluffy and soft with a natrual banana taste.
The texture of the green tea scone was interesting because it was a bit like a soft doughy cookie with a crisp exterior, the coffee scone was yummy too because the coffee flavour was present but not too overpowering.
++++++++++++++++++
Although this place is famous for rose latte, I prefer tea with cakes and they had my favourite mighty leaf brand.
++++++++++++++++++Overall I was impressed with tea set because they had decent things to eat and it was not localized and I can't wait to come back again.
I feel that other places that serve "afternoon tea" with cheap and localized bits and pieces should take this as a reference insteading of putting crap together and calling it a tea set.
