One of my best buy for today is the straw hat from Uniqlo! It cost $9.90 only!

I am going to use it for my upcoming Krabi trip in July!

The ambience is so relaxing and soothing~

Part of the drink menu.

The high tea comes with 2 free drinks for each pax. For the first round, Dear ordered the Earl Grey Flavoured Black Tea and I ordered the Vanilla Ceylon.

I love the english-style tea pots and tea cups!

The delicious Shrimps and Mango filled Crossaints is totally savory! I had two of it!

And it was my first time trying out the Foie Gras! I would say that it is very rich, sort of creamy in texture. The livery taste is there, but mild.

The selection of sandwiches is extensive with fillings ranging from tuna, ham and cheese, chicken, seafood, and etc.

The recommended creme brulee certainly lives up to its name!

It may be a little too sweet for those who do not have a sweet tooth~

One of the main attractions of the english afternoon tea is the desserts! The cakes were fluffy and yummy and it is not too sweet.

I wished I could have tried everything but some just deserved second helpings that I had to give some of the items a miss.

For the second round, Dear ordered the Hazelnut Coffee and I ordered the Ice Lemon Tea. The diversified types of teas and coffees makes me spoilt for choices!

Overall I have to say that it was a very pleasant experience dining there. Their service was pretty prompt. Our empty plates were collected efficiently & politely. And their staff always carry a smile on their face.


I'm also quite impressed with the overall quality of the buffet and I am giving them a two thumbs up!


I can't wait to go back again! But before that, I would like to try out others highly raved high tea buffet at different hotels!
