The luxurious furnishings and old world charm of TWG's tea salons makes them them easily mistakable for outposts of a premium Parisian tea chain, but did you know that the company was actually established in Singapore in 2008? Bewitched by its beautiful decor and the numerous tea canisters on display within the glass-walled enclave, D and I joined the queue outside TWG's Ion Orchard outlet one day for a classy afternoon treat.I ordered the 1837 tea time set menu ($18++), which included a pot of
I ordered the 1837 tea time set menu ($18++), which included a pot of TWG tea as well as a choice between two scones, two muffins and a patisserie from the trolley. To my disappointment, the raisin-studded scones looked better than they tasted- they were dry and overly crumbly, and weren't buttery enough for my liking. At least they were warmed before serving.
While the red tea jelly was quite nice, I would have preferred my scones to be paired with rich clotted cream instead of whipped cream.
A pot of tea at TWG costs $11++ and upwards, and no refills of hot water are provided as the tea has already been strained before serving. (FYI: No sharing of teapots is permitted.) Fragrant and calming, my Vanilla Bourbon Tea was just one of the numerous teas on offer- you'll definitely have a hard time choosing your beverage here! I didn't take to its slightly sour tang though.
