This was not the first time that we came here for an afternoon tea. Last time, we've tried the recommended tea set for two. We found it pretty enjoyable and impressive. This time, we've had a few snacks which I think were special and delicious. By the experience from the previous time, the restaurant was full and we waited for quite a long time to get a table. So, this time, I got a table for us as soon as I could. However, it wasn't as crowded as last time was. I could get a table easily. While

While waiting for dad, I ordered a drink, which was the iced berries tea with mango and raspberry sorbet. It was refreshing, though I found the tea a bit tasteless. The sorbet tastes good and the mango was fresh. However, the huge 'iceberg' surprised me. I think small ice cubes should be used.
When dad came, we've ordered a beef sandwich with avocado and a finger sandwich with foie gras and mango. I found the beef sandwich flawless! It was well-warmed. The baguette was crunchy enough. The beef was perfectly cooked and very tender. The avocado and other veggies were fresh. Together with the melted butter at the bottom of the filling, it was a fantastic combination! However, dad didn't fancy much butter (but I did! ^^). The finger sandwich appeared to be a mystery box to me. It was wrapped with an elegant package. Only the clever ones know how to open it! (I wasn't...) The mango slice was placed between the sandwich and the foie gras terrine was on top of it, covered with crunchy peanuts. It was quite surprising and delicious. Later, we orsered a minced beef and tomato crunchy bread and a tarte au chocolat. The bread was pretty special and we enjoyed it very much. The tart was incredibly fine and delicious! Crunchy on the tart and also on the top of the rich chocolate mousse.
We had a nice time in Le Salon de Thé and I hope I can have another nice afternoon tea again probably with mum too in the near future. =)
题外话/补充资料：
Joel Robuchon restaurants are one of the fantastic high-end restaurants that I've ever tried in HK. Its food and service are always satisfying and sometimes bring us surprises. My parents and I have tried the three restaurants - this (le salon de the), L'Atelier and Le Jardin. We enjoyed our meals there very much. Unfortunately, I didn't get much time to write about them since I'm still a student. I love and appreciate French cuisine, and also practising my French with French waiters. I hope there will be more French open restaurants with French waiters in HK. So far, I like L'Atelier, Pastis, St. Germain, La Creperie these French restaurants with waiters speaking French. =)
