I happened to pass by this place and figured that my tea and high-tea loving friend would love to check this place out. We didn’t end up getting a high tea (you need reservations) and had a la carte instead.
Since we just dropped by, it was either sitting by the counter by the window, or outside on the patio (rather sidewalk).
The place was packed and busy. Nicely decorated with chandeliers and a Neverland theme. However, it felt pretty cramped. And as Sheepie always complains with North American architecture, the ceiling with the pipes and vents are all exposed – it’s just ugly.
We sat at a table outside. Unfortunately, the sidewalk is slightly slanted, so the table was slanted too. I was afraid I was going to drop and break something on the small table that was crammed with our plates and cups.
I had a pot of tea $3.50 which came in a regular tin pot. I had a Rooibos tea.
Finger Sandwich $14 with chef’s selection of three finger sandwiches from that day’s high tea menu, and a side of black kale salad. The kale was surprisingly soft and tasty. Very refreshing. The small sandwiches were a delight to eat. There was the chicken salad, egg salad and one more I don’t recall… but the entire dish was very light.
