High Tea

Terrific value for money for the quality and quantity on display. The chilled truffle-scented angel hair pasta with avruga caviar and kawa ebi shrimps barges into your sensory pleasure memory orbs with the rapacious ruthlessness of a disgruntled Bukit Gombak-residing Ah Ma in a 6:13pm EW Line train and the éclair of Singapore-style chilli crab meat is an alluringly feisty little runt. Elsewhere, the dainty sweets - think masala chai tea cake, scones with honey kaya and plum preserve, baked apple crumble tart and bandung rose cream strawberry and lychee tart - completely overwhelms the arguably superior savoury and whacks the latter over the head with a clapping, shrieking seal, so give yourself the full two hours to indulge.

Honey Kaya - it's da bomb!! Strong coconut aroma n taste. With a hint of sweetness of the wild honey. So yummy that I literally used a teaspoon to scoop all the remaining honey kaya sauce and eat it as it is... Pure bliss!
