The Tea Verandah begins its operation on the same day as Atria Mall isofficiated and opened to public in the month of May recently. Epicurean
especially tea enthusiasts particularly, surely would love to drop by here one
of these days, to harvest a variety of tea types that gonna engage you
sensuously. As the saying goes, “Birds of the same feather will flock together”
right? So let’s have a relaxing
gathering here over some delicious homey grubs to accompany your tea enjoyment
too.
Joan, the amiable café owner who isalso an ardent tea lover, would be more glad than happy to share her insightful
knowledge with regards to tea or any questions pertaining to this dainty
delights. There are indeed a smorgasbord of potpourri of tea blends for you to tickle your
taste amusingly, from Europe Fruits Tea, Organic Tea, Herbs Tea, Healthy Tea,
Pure Europe Herbs & Flowers Tea, Rooibos Tea, Yogurt Tea to your Classic
Black Tea.
While allowing the tea to steep, let’sfirst start off with some wholesome meal freshly dished up upon order by Chef
Imran and the team.
Moules marinières- classic French cuisinestyle to greet you as starter.
MUSSELS POT (MYR 18.90)
Mussels braised in special butter
garlic sauce, served with bread toasts.
I somehow get addicted to the
lightly browned but crispy toasties, served alongside creamy sauce which is
freshly grated from cream cheese
block to render that delicate milkiness.
GRILLED SALMON STEAK (MYR 25.90)Salmon steak served with mashed
potato, garlic butter spinach and asparagus.
Love the juicy slab of oceanic treat
that is calmly seated atop the chunky spud. The salmon seems to be poached and
lightly marinated to preserve its natural taste. Bit of salt and pepper here
and there, are sufficient. Health conscious folks would definitely delights in
this healthy grub which comes simply palatable and fuss-free.
Now let’s not get too carried awaywith the toothsome food and forget about our tea brewing at the other corner. Let’s
check out what’s in stored for us.
All tea comes in 3 different types
of tea pot sizes; Elegant, Petite and Classic.
TROPICAL SKY (MYR 13.80-A POT / MYR33- T SET)
Pineapple, papaya, mango, tangerine
slice, safflower, rose, sunflower and physalis (gooseberries)
This Europe Fruit Tea caught my attention
immediately after the first sips and the memory remains vividly even till now
when recalling it. It’s so fragrant and sweet-scented with various fruits
aroma that easily makes anyone’s perfect chillers and instant thirst-quenchers.
This fruit tea produced from afactory in Germany and then personally hand-picked by Joan and patented to Tea
Verandah, which is a the brainchild of the youthful lass herself.TEA VERANDAH (MYR 18-A POT / MYR
36.50- T SET)
Apple bits, lemon bits, cherries,
pineapple, mango bits, papaya, hibiscus blossoms, orange peels, rose hips
peels, elder berries, peach bits, apricot bits and orange bits.
It tastes as good as it smells. Gracefuland fruity undertone gently greets your palate upon the first sip before rounds
up with a delicate and harmonious aftertaste with a mild bite tanginess. It’s
elegant in its way too.
As for the Rooibos Tea category, wetried CAPPUCCINO CREAM (MYR
13.80-A POT / MYR 33- T SET)
Rooibos, cappuccino bits and
marigold blossoms- essentially comes with the coffee aroma.
Something really intriguinglyinteresting- suitable for those looking for alternative to fix their caffeine
craving or to reduce coffee intake. It makes a healthier version for the caffeine
content in the cappuccino flower is really minimal, if not almost inexistent.
So, keep them in the check-list (=
New tea in the house- BEN’GIN (MYR 9.90)Bentong ginger, red dates and lemon.
I must say that the ginger taste ispretty strong as the best of the best breed from Bentong is used, hence this
surely appeals to true ardent fans of ginger, which is one of a good to improve
indigestion.
Not your cup of tea still? Fret notas there are still a mélange of other teas selections from the various
varietals which help in easing irregular sleeping pattern and some particular
blend even aids in slimming down purpose
too.
After the first sip for the originaltea taste , guests could actually try adding in a smidgen or more sugar cane
for another kind of palate enjoyment. To me, it somehow does enhance the tea
fragrance- in this case, it was the signature Tea Verandah that I tested on.
Not too bad an idea really.
What’s the ideal partner to any tête
à tête session if not some morsel of desserts to complement the whole delectation
on a sweet note?
TEA VERANDAH CHEESECAKE (MYR
13.50)
The
classic cheesecake garnished with some strawberries for some added tartness.
Would be wonderful if the cake presents
a moister texture.
Tea Set or T Set as known here, is also available all day long.Choices of morsels would change
weekly, so do stay anticipated for surprise!
As for that day, our palate weretickled amusingly by Bread Puff with Spicy Crab Meat, Tuna Puff and Sausage
Chutney Puff that thrills you out of the blue with the added crushed marlie
biscuit in it, just like how you would usually enjoy your canapés.
On top of that, we are alsoaccompanied by Chocolate Caramelized Bananas with Lady’s Fingers together with
the ocean-themed Jelly with Osmanthus Flower as well as Vanilla Muffin.
In a nutshell, savoury food may notbe that prominent over here as the main highlights still owes to its farrago of
tea. Nevertheless, sheer passions and sincerity are warmly felt as part of
their ingredients, so kudos to the ever chipper crew of Tea Verandah. More
selections of desserts and gourmets would be added from time to time, so do stay
tuned at Tea Verandah page or swift by whenever you are at Atria Mall.
