Last month i saw there's deal for this & it only cost $28 ,so i bought it & went 2 weeks ago,My reservation was 12.30 but i reach around 12pm ,One of the staff guide us to a corner seat,which is the first picture on top,After that we choose our tea & we realize that there's a lot of ants ,so we told the manager we wanna change seat,so we changed to middle seat,who knows is worst,there's more ants,so we changed to another corner which was near escalator ,There's totally no ants there,so we though
My reservation was 12.30 but i reach around 12pm ,One of the staff guide us to a corner seat,which is the first picture on top,After that we choose our tea & we realize that there's a lot of ants ,so we told the manager we wanna change seat,so we changed to middle seat,who knows is worst,there's more ants,so we changed to another corner which was near escalator ,There's totally no ants there,so we thought that we can relax & chat there but after awhile sun come out & it was super sunny there,we was sweating so no choice we asked for seat change again,The manager told us ,no matter where we sit,there's still sun,unless we take back the first seat with ants,we really have no choice but to go back there again,The manager told us that there's ants problem,they tried a lot of method but can't kill it,so he asked us to bear with it
From 12,we waited till 12.30-12.45pm for the afternoon tea to come,serving time was really long,
It look pretty nice & among the 3 layer,i love their Fingers Sandwiches
Egg Mayonnaise with chopped shallots & alfa alfa- don't really like this as i don't like shallots
Smoked Chicken & macadamia nut- it tasted like ham
Cream cheese, pistachio & cucumber- quite unique combo,pistachio goes well with their cheese
Black forest ham & cheese with pommery mustard mayonnaise- i like this,very nice
Freshly baked mushroom & potato quiche - Quite oily
Freshly baked mini chicken pie- not bad,but too bad not pie was not crispy
Freshly baked raisin & cranberry scone -normal
It come with 4 difference kind of sauces,Devonshire clotted cream, homemade lemon curd, wild blackberry preserved, butter rosette,i only tried their lemon & blackberry,not bad
For cakes,they have
Blackberry & apple crumble
Chocolate & walnut brownie
Traditional aged fruit cake
Lemon merinque tartlet-not nice,very sweet
American cheese cake- already melt,very soggy
For their cake,i can only said is really very very sweet,i'm a cake lover but i never really finish it,cause really too sweet ,
For tea i had Chamomile ,tasted quite normal & not very thick
As i read review that can take away so i never force myself to finish all & asked for takeaway instead,actually one tier is enough for 2 person
For Environment- decoration was nice,look clean but due to ants & sunny ,i really can't seem to enjoy having nice high tea here
For service - staff are friendly but service was really slow, I asked for ice water & they totally forget it,so i got to ask again,one cup of ice water waited for 30mins ,We really can't stand the heat,so around 1.10pm we asked for take away,the waitress told us to wait,so we wait but she totally forget about us,so we asked for another staff for take away & we waited till 2pm,i don't understand why pack a pieces of cake can take so long time?
For food wise - cakes too sweet ,but Sandwiches was really nice
OVerall i don't think i will come back again
