Welcome to Downtown. Looking for High Tea places?

Offering a lovely array of bites with sweeping views of the South China Sea and Marina Bay, The Westin Singapore Lobby Lounge's Seafood Afternoon Tea ($58++ per person) was quite the treat. Coming here predominately for their (half) Lobster Thermidor with chargrilled lemon, I literally inhaled the plump meat which was covered in the lightly-torched, buttery-rich sauce. Not too cheesy or cloying, the supposed wine-based cream sauce went swimmingly with the sweet, fresh-tasting crustacean. And together on the platter, the Lobster Mayonnaise Brioche Rolls were a hit as well. The diced onions added some sweetness and countered the heaviness of the mayo-covered chunks.

The refreshing English Cucumber Sandwiches and Salmon with Ikura, Fine Herbs on Pumpernickel were classics done right.

Moving to the sweets while sipping on a pot of TWG tea, my picks would be the Passion Fruit Mango Tart Sablé, Yuzu Casis Tart, and Chocolate Moelleux with Caramelized Pecans. The sweet-tangy Tart Sablé tasted fresh and fruity. The bits of desiccated coconut were a nice touch and worked nicely with the floral-like flavour of the mango. Similarly, the Yuzu Casis Tart was a zesty, tropical number with blushes of tanginess and a buttery-crumbly base. A little more rich and decadent, the Chocolate Moelleux with Caramelized Pecans was a foolproof two-bite snack with a chocolatey moist center. The Raspberry Religieuse was fairly good as well with the soft cream in the French choux bun pastry and fresh berries.

The seafood high tea was one of its kind. The Lobby Lounge is located at high floor with sea view. The lobby also have high ceilings which makes it luxurious.

The food is tasty and the price is worth the portion. You will need to make reservation and Chope has good offer.

A slightly different afternoon tea with seafood and champagne at @thewestinsingapore Lobby Lounge. Yes lobster is involved. More on www.ms-skinnyfat.com!

Seafood high tea~ lobster 😋😋

They are better off putting Tabasco in the pipettes.

Tea takes place at the Lobby Lounge of The Westin all the way up on the 32th floor, so you can be sure that this afternoon tea experience is as delicious as it is scenic with the floor-to-ceiling panorama. The setting, a light-filled, relaxing lounge with comfy sofas and easy chairs, along with coffee tables.

Tea begins with a glass of champagne - before we plundered a three-tier platter including highlights such as the Alaskan King Crab Tempura and Butter-Fried Oysters, and tucked into a whole Lobster Thermidor and Freshly-Shucked Oysters; pastries include petite cakes and chocolates. Plates are changed with each course - a nice touch.

Service was assured and seamless if occasionally a touch perfunctory. Details counts so perhaps it may be a good idea to weigh in on the type of serving plate used – the “tea service” sized cutlery is too small and ungainly for the lobster. And personally, I'd prefer some of the savouries to be served warm.

🗒 SGD85++ for two persons inclusive of two glasses of champagne.

Great Buffet with reasonable variety. The appeal of this place is not so much the variety though, but the quality. The oysters were great. Do check out the avocado ice cream if you have the chance to!
