Hotels with high tea for an indulgent afternoon
Brunch may be trending these past two years, but I somehow always found high tea sessions at swish hotels more enticing. There’s just something so indulgent about sipping tea and munching on dainty bites, as I while away the afternoon. It also helps that high tea sets at hotels are always pretty to a tee! With the year coming to an end, there’s no better way for Maybank Cardmembers to catch up with their BFF than at these hotels with high tea.
1. Lobby Lounge (Crowne Plaza Changi Airport)

Priced at $38++ per person, the three-tier set serves two and features dainty nibbles such as rhubarb and strawberry quiche with cream, strawberry chocolate tart, egg mayo chocolate bread sandwich, as well as chocolate brownie raspberry cake. You and your BFF will also get a choice of coffee or Dilmah tea to go with your treats.
If you have more than one best friend, you will be glad to know that you can score 1-for-1 on this high tea set when you pay with your Maybank Credit or Debit Card! Available until 30 November 2018, there’s no limit to how many sets you can order, so feel free to invite your entire crew.

There’s even a DIY station to make your own ice kachang!
