I really wanted to try out this place after walking pass it one day as it looks really beautiful inside. Although it says tea lounge, I've decided to go there for dinner instead to save the hassle of coming over for tea after dinner. There is nothing to rave about the dinner menu but the food was surprising better than expected though it is a little pricy to my standard. However I give them credit for the quirky name they came up for each dish.
The highlight of the night, tea and desserts! We moved on to the more cosy, sofa setting side of the restaurant and immediately started ordering excitingly hah. Some pics while waiting..
As the name suggests, the tea lived up to its name. Of course, not forgetting every girl's weakness... desserts! Ohhh myy.... the matcha lava cake is to die for! It looked like this before I cut it up. The moment I cut it up....
We ordered the apple cake as well. Although we kinda neglected it after tasting the lava cake. XX thinks this is too sweet but the rest found it fine. There's just a thin layer of sugar on top thus making it sweet. To be fair, it is a nice dessert too :)
I would love to come over to try their brunch! The 3 tier thing they serve looked so tempting :)
We ordered the Drunken Pirates - Pork shank ($23.90)
Rebellious one - Ribeye ($24.90). I like my steak. The meat was done to my liking and it was tasty. The sweet jam sauce complimented the meat as well. However I thought they could serve a better salad rather than plain boiled mix vegetables.
I had to take a pic of this!! Check out the matcha that flows out. I never had matcha lava before. It is always chocolate. However this green tea is not overpowering and the cake is a little salty. Something like salted caramel. Unlike some really sweet dessert where you can't have too much of it, you will not feel so sick of this. Even the ice cream wasn't just plain vanilla ice cream. There's a faint honey lavender taste to it. I dislike lavender ice cream as I thought the flower smelt is usually too overpowering but this is just nice! A spoonful of the cake with some ice cream... awwwwww......
For the drinks, they all come with nice little snacks.
We had hazelnut chocolate (I think)
Longan tea. I love it too! We didn't add the sugar provided as the tea was already sweet and I can taste the tinge of longan. Surprisingly, the logan soaked inside was still sweet too.
This is called a dessert tea coz it comes with ice cream I supposed. Pomelo tea. It's nice too. There was bits of pomelo in the tea. Not sure why they have to serve the same tea in a small glass with ice. Maybe they want to let the customer taste the original tea without the ice cream.
All of us
