I made my booking 6 days before, and were told that only outdoor seats are available. It was hot and windy when we got there, and it wasnt a very comfortable environment to enjoy tea when the wind is blowing your hair all the time.My expectation for this restaurant is quite high, as I have read and heard a lot of positive comments about it before i went there. The afternoon tea menu was actually quite attractive, with 5 savouries, 6 pastries and two scones for each person.The scones were quite g

The savories:
The caesar salad wasnt really salad at all, but I've enjoyed the variation and the chicken was well seasoned. However, this is the only item that I think would be better if it comes in a slightly larger portion. (The others well all of the right portions because of their sweetness or strong flavor.)
The prawn/ avocado/ lobsterjelly has already melted when I ate it. (Another reason for not choosing outdoor for this tea.) It was okay but I may enjoy a tradition avocado prawn sandwich more.The king crab brioche was my favorite savouries. The crab was prepared with some ginger and they went pretty well together.
The foie gras creme brulee was sure a special item. It was more salty than sweet. You would probably like it if you love caramelized foie gras. The smoked salmon tarlet was just like any ordinary salmon tart. It was neither good or bad.
The pastries:
The seasonal fruit tart I had was pear jelly tart. The pear was nice but it was a bit too sweet for me.
Strawberry jelly white chocolate creme might have tasted better if it hasnt melted. The jelly was very sweet and the white chocolate flavor isnt very pronounced.
The lemon cupcake was okay, with a strong lemon flavor. However, I personally think that it would be better if they have used a cream cheese frosting.
The chocolate marquise has some crispy biscuits with peanut butter at the bottom, and was quite nice.The Tart Mont Blanc and Praline eclair were both okay, but not very special.
I chose "sweet memories" for tea, it was a rose tea and it tasted very nice with sweetness.

Overall, the afternoon tea was still quite good and it was worth trying those special items. The food may taste better if they havent melted yet. (We have been sitting there for 1.5hr when I ate some of them, so I dont blame the restaurant!)
题外话/补充资料：
The outdoor seats may provide a more chilled environment, but personally I wouldnt choose it again for tea because it was too windy and there were a few flies all over our food all the time. I really appreciate it when the server offers to change our food for some new ones twice because of this.
