 Imagine a wall of black and white photographs of the old Thailand and royal family, this place is always a celebrity and wedding party favourite in Asia.
The tea set starts from early afternoon 12pm, for which is classified between Western and the Oriental set, plus an additional vegetarian set. Both comes with a list of signature brewed teas, pastries, savouries and classic scones.

 It begins with two scoops of delicious lime sorbet and lemon sorbet, so refreshing to start off the meal. As we opt for one of each set, so we basically try all of them. The plain and raisin scones are rightly done even though are lacking a bit of crumbly and butteriness, whereas the mango scone is still warm and tastes something out of ordinary. All served with clotted cream, mango and a notably luscious rose petal jam.

 For the Oriental set, we love the lime crabmeat sandwich, fried vermicelli cup, pandan coconut crepe and mango sticky rice tartlets; for the Western set, there are the green asparagus in clear tomato aspic on white sourdough, smoked salmon open faced sandwich and raspberry caramel eclair that we enjoyed. We finish with a cup of earl grey tea with milk and is given a complimentary box of mini chocolate. How lovely!

 After all, this afternoon tea at the Author’s Lounge surely deserves a special mention!
