The high tea is priced at $138++ per set and comes on a Japanese zen garden-themed plate. It’s an 11-course set with two glasses of chrysanthemum mocktail and two cups of coffee or tea, alongside a good mix of sweet and savoury items.

A standout dish is the French Duck Rilette with Sakura Jelly in Monaka Shell, which comes with a velvety duck rillette topped with sakura jelly and calamansi juice, all encased in a crispy sakura-shaped monaka shell for a contrast of crispy and creamy textures.

After savoury dishes, indulge in a selection of sweet treats, including the Goma Crepe Roll Cake comprising thin layers of bracken crepe for a chewy yet soft texture and black sesame cream for a melt-in-your-mouth experience.

Another dessert you can expect is the Salted Peanut Chocolate Warabimochi Tart, which comes with a Manjari chocolate warabimochi filling, crunchy peanut nougatine, Manjari cream, and a salted peanut for a balance of sweet and salty flavours.

FYI, there’s a limited number of 10 sets per day, so we recommend booking in advance to secure a spot!
