I can’t come to a tea lounge and not drink tea, aye? Besides the normal fruit/Chinese/Japanese tea, there’s also a selection of alcoholic tea ($14++ each) served after 5pm on weekdays and all day long on weekends. The Choya Pineapple Tea is really just that: choya mixed with pineapple tea. A pleasant and refreshing combination.Whiskey Chocolate sounds like a masculine drink but comes in such a feminine and dainty cup. Love how frilly it looks!

Whiskey Chocolate sounds like a masculine drink but comes in such a feminine and dainty cup. Love how frilly it looks! Presentation is gimmicky: the waitress lit up the mixture of whiskey+sugar cube+chocolate, and we just sat back and watched it burn. Then pour, stir and drink up! I like this, very strong and potent mix of chocolate and whiskey. There’s also a pack of French tuile wafer which is good for dipping in the hot chocolate. Reminds me of how I dipped biscuits in milo when I was a kid, ha.
Adam in Wonderland ($15.90++) comes with 2 scoops of gelato and 2 slices of Arteastiq’s signature apple cakes. I wanted Champagne Vanilla and Cointreau Bitter Chocolate but they were unavailable =( so had the Ginger Spice Tea and Whisky Cinnamon instead. The former was fantastic, the ice cream version of said tea with a distinct ginger aftertaste, but the latter was… Too weird, too medicine-like. This is one instance when being too exotic doesn’t work.
I don’t have a high standard for apple cakes. So long as it’s not dry, it’s fine. So this is fine =)
