Start off the new year by meeting with the ones you cherish the most over a lovely afternoon of indulgence, filled with sweet and savoury delights.
With the turn of the decade, hotels and restaurants are thinking of new ways of challenging themselves in order to bring the best of culinary creativity to our city.
Whether you're jumping on the healthy bandwagon or looking to take a tour of various cities' symbolic dishes from the comfort of a plush couch, these are the afternoon teas to try in January:
1. “Fuel Your Body and Mind” Afternoon Tea at the W Hong Kong
Those looking to reset for the new year need to look no further than the W Hong Kong’s WOOBAR. With its new “Fuel Your Body and Mind” afternoon tea concept, the W Hotel encourages us to turn over a new leaf by taking the time to refuel our energy through healthy eating habits.
In a bold and pioneering move, the restaurant is the first to offer an afternoon tea with superfoods as the main focus. With healthy bites such as beetroot hummus with pomegranate, seared tuna rolled in crushed chickpeas, smoked salmon on rye, avocado chocolate brownies and coconut raspberry chia seed pudding, guests will leave feeling full but guilt-free.
The "Fuel Your Body and Mind" afternoon tea set for two is priced at HK$488 and is available from January 1, 2020 to March 31, 2020 from 3:00pm to 5:30pm on weekdays (except public holidays).
The “Pump Up the Fuel” afternoon tea set for two is priced at HK$638 and is available from January 1, 2020 to March 31, 2020 from 2:00pm to 5:30pm on Saturdays and Sundays. The tea set includes everything from the standard afternoon tea set in addition to two glasses of sparkling wine.
