so my friend and i decided to try out the tea sets at Robuchon, and we picked the full tea set for 2 which cost $298.the set came with 2 drinks (either tea or coffee). I ordered lady grey tea while my friend got a cupt of coffee. we started with the savory stuff. there were four mini-sandwiches. One had Norwegian Salmon on it, which was pretty nice. One had tuna, parma ham, a bit of vege and olives. I'm not a fan of olives, but I still find this sandwich tasty =) the sandwich at the very back of

we started with the savory stuff. there were four mini-sandwiches. One had Norwegian Salmon on it, which was pretty nice. One had tuna, parma ham, a bit of vege and olives. I'm not a fan of olives, but I still find this sandwich tasty =) the sandwich at the very back of my photo was the best out of the four. There was a slight touch with spices on it and it made the sandwich pretty refreshing. the greenish sandwich was fine with a soft texture.
then we moved on to the scones. they were served with clotted cream and strawberry jam. there were strawberry dices in the jam and i just LOVED it the scones were of mini sizes too. the rectangular ones were raisin scones and the round ones were lemon-flavored (i think i saw 'lemon' on the menu) but it tasted just like any plain scones.
after we're done, the waiter collected the dishes and brought us the most anticipated part of our tea - pastries. they were so nicely set up. We had the almond chocolate first. it was good, but would be better if there were less almonds. and we have a lemon-mousse thingy with mixed berries on top, i would say it was as good as Robuchon's lemon tart, except that it was a bit more creamy. and we had a hazelnut cake, which was lovely also. blueberry cheesecake was like any normal blueberry cheesecake. there was one cake that looked like chestnut cake, but it actually tasted like passionfruit/ grapefruit cake. I liked the taste, because it gave us a totally different flavor other than desserts that had chocolate ingredients. and we had the three mini-macarons. this time they gave us hazelbut macarons (i saw a couple at another table were having greenish macarons which might be pistachio macarons). it was GREAT! with a strong taste of hazelnut we only had a bite of the plain cake in the end, it was good too, but we were too full to finish everything up.
it was a fine experience overall. From how the waiters served, you could see that they were quite well-trained =). I would definitely return for tea again =)
