we reminded each other, today is a day we have to act all tai-tai, walk like a tai-tai, smile like a tai-tai, nibble like a tai-tai and of course whisper like a tai-tai too. LeeChing was talking berry softly on the phone to the point that her boyfie on the other end can hardly hear her
we were given a menu to choose our preferred tea. the choices although not really extensive, was varied and pretty interesting!
an extravagantly tea with the intensive aroma Japanese wild berries.
while i had Morgentau.
a tea creation with delicate fruity flavours and petals.
Earl Grey was too overpowering for my liking, i like mine more. i have always loved fruity scent, in my tea and perfumes.
i know i should start off with savory sandwiches first. but i couldn’t resist warm scones. i couldn’t resist the clotted cream more actually. so i had to have the scones first, sorry sandwiches.
scones were well made, not dry or doughy..same goes with the homemade jam. not sickly sweet as those commercial ones. even a non-jam person like LC spread it thickly on her scones.
the top consists of
-Soft Cheddar Cheese, Ripe Tomato on Whole Wheat Bread
-Lemon Chicken Salad, Crunchy Celery in Puff Pastry
-Roasted Beef, Grain Mustard Mayonnaise on Village Bread
-Cucumber with Cream Cheese Dill on White Brown Bread
-Chicken Breast, Horseradish Cream on White Bread
-Scottish Smoked Salmon, Lemmon Butter on Poppy Seed Bread
-Egg Mayonnaise Voulevant, Chopped Shallots, Alfafa Sprouts
well, there’s really many breads for an afternoon tea. O.o
we had a hard time gulping them down nibbling them.. nonetheless there’s few that i really like and wish i could have second serving of.
so to conclude, i would recommend Afternoon Tea at 1885, Eastern & Oriental Hotel if you’re looking somewhere nice to catch up with your girlfriends over dainty food in a light and relaxing environment. do remember, reservation is highly recommended!
