Best high tea buffets in Singapore

---

Like many out there, I am guilty of spending my afternoons as a kid “drinking tea” with my Barbie dolls. Yet, growing up made me realise how high tea sessions are so out of my reach, simply because they are too atas and expensive. That is, until my best friend recommended Chilli Padi Tok Panjang, which offers an affordable Peranakan high tea buffet. Since then, I’ve sifted out more high tea buffets that can fulfil my inner tai tai and yours. Here are the best high tea buffets in Singapore to try if you’re looking to pamper yourself.

1. Peach Garden

---

Peach Garden is that one restaurant you can rely on for family gatherings or reunions on special occasions, such as New Year’s Day and Chinese New Year. Their 1-for-1 Weekend High Tea Buffet is available at Thomson Plaza for $46++ per person. There are plenty of dim sum and seafood options to indulge in, all free-flow of course.

2. J65

---

Bring your Muslim friends to J65 at JEN Singapore Tanglin by Shangri-La, where you can feast on both local and Western favourites with their High Tea Buffet. It’s originally priced at $88++, but with the 1-for-1 deal, it works out to just $44++ per person. There’s a catch: a minimum of two diners is required to enjoy this deal. Their Oxtail Stew with Cremolata is a must-try; it’s slow-cooked till the tendons are melt-in-your-mouth tender. There’s also a seafood counter for unlimited servings of Mud Crab and Prawn, and Mussel! When you’re done with the savouries, end your meal on a sweet note with more than nine dessert choices, including Chocolate Brownie, Assorted Swiss Rolls, and Pulut Hitam Scones.
