Ordered: Tea Set for two
Taste: The tea set consist of 3 layers. Top layer is cakes, second layer is scones and bottom are savoury.
Bottom: We started off from the bottom. There are bite size sandwiches, salmon sandwich, cucumber sandwich and ham sandwiches. They were awfully small, about 1.5 cm each. Nothing exciting about the sandwiches, very buttery so anything with that much butter can not be that bad. There was only one egg mayo pastry which my friend said it was very nice. and indeed it looked very looked. There were foie gras burger split in half. Half each. I think that was my best out of the whole tea set. But too bad it was so little.
Finished it within one bite.
Middle: The middle layer is ONLY Scones. The scones were biggest out of them all. 4 piece of scones. They were still warm when we digged in.
Cream Butter and two other jams came seperately on a playe. Generous amount they gave you. I put Butter Creama nd strawbery jam on mine, and they tasted really good. Not too sweet. The scones were lovely. They were buttery and not too hard. I love how they gave you two different types of scones to taste. one was raisin and the other was without raisin.. i prefered the ones without raisin.
Top: There were quite alot of small little cakes and two glass of apple mousse. I did not taste the apple mousse but it did nt look very delicious.
PS: Before i started on the top layers of miniature size cakes, waitress came round with some more cakes that is not found on our racks. she asked if we would like to refill. there were some chocolate cake and some other strawberry cakes. We asked for one each. dark chocolate cake looked very alluring but it was TOO sweet. even if it was dark chocolate it was too sweet. I only managed to have one bite of it.
The was also one pear tart which i did not taste.
But there was a cheesecake that was absolutely tasty. It was literally a cheese on top of a biscuit. Nice
DRINKS: I ordered the Four Season green Tea blend. Companion ordered earl Grey Tea. Waiter soon came with a pot of each. White tea pt and white cup. I loved the taste of the Green Tea. It was not strong Green tea but a faint flowery green tea. I loved it. It did not take away the spotlight of the cakes or scones. It gave me the warm autumn feeling with a cool breeze. The waiters were very nice and came to refill the pt every 15mins. so i was definately not thirsty. Service: I got there at2.30pm but tea time only starts from 3 pm. I asked the lady at the front and she said i am bit early but i can sit down first. She was not particulary nice but was not rude. I was seated by the window which was fairly nice seat but not much view part from the road. Then it was not until 1mins later they came over and asked what we would like to drink.
But i must compliment on them refilling our tea pots every so often. The girl who came round with the refill of the cakes was faily patience with us. She named every cakes that can be refilled and politely refilled it for us.
on leaving, the waiter kindly reminded us to make sure we took all our belongings.
PS: i really liked it here. It was not fully packed but 80 percent full. I loved the high ceiling and the piano was playing nearly ll way through. The bill came up to approx 420 hk dollars. so between 2 people, 210 hk dollars each for 2.5 hours of chatting I think it was definately worth it. But the food was not extremely impressing.
