SAVEURS DU MONDE | GODIVA X RITZ-CARLTON | HONG KONG

Right before I jumped into crazy working mode, I had this such cheering and amazing chocolate featured afternoon tea with my fellow sweet plus hightea fellows. Ritz-Carlton's afternoon tea seems never to stay away something related to chocolate and high-end. This Autumn (October & November, Cafe 103 of Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong pairs with Godiva, to present ONLY one-month chocolate signature hightea set. The big man behind this concept, Godiva Chief Chocolatier, Philippe Daue, named it as [ SAVEUR DU MONDE ]

Wooooo, to be translated, it's a worldwide chocolate journey (hope my basic-basic French is working well now), and let's see :P

AFTERNOON TEA SET | SKY LOUNGE SHERATON HOTEL | HONG KONG

There are a lot of afternoon tea choices in Tsim Sha Tsui, from buffet to hightea set, while having a comfort afternoon tea with a nice bird view of Hong Kong Island, would be not that easy to find or book. A decent and lazy afternoon with everything just easy? I made a try to Sheraton's in Sky Lounge, and the new Afternoon Tea Set for the coming autumn was a bit different by its French-style with oriental elements. 

HULLETT HOUSE AFTERNOON TEA | THE PARLOUR | HONG KONG

I have tried the 'All-You-Can-Eat' Dim Sum in the Chinese restaurant under Hullett House Dining Group, which impresses me a lot by their unique style of old 'western' Hong Kong. This time, we are heading to The Parlour, for a cozy afternoon time.

The Parlour is like the face of Hullett House when you climb up to the terrace where the historic canons are. The Chinese bamboo-made windows in a classic red is always beautiful, but in the typhoon day, we cannot relax outside. Actually besides the classic English afternoon tea set, another Chinese one, named 'Old Hong Kong' is also served with those familiar items, such as pineapple bun, bird's nest and egg tart, deep fried shrimp toast, etc.

Tanned, Twisted, Tiffin

I'm not princess, but having sweet-tooth, I cannot say No to High-Tea as most of girls. Tiffin Lounge of Grand Hyatt Hong Kong, is quite signature High-Tea spot here. Still remember when I kicked off my food blogging journey, one of the most frequently mentioned and recommended High-Tea is Tiffin, for it's twisted leaf-shape iron plates and gelato buffet counter.

Afternoon Tea for Nights

This is my second time in Rondavy's Artisan Kitchen, this little Jardin upstairs in Causeway Bay. Heard the good news from blogger friends through Facebook that Ron's place has re-built and enlarged a lot with new painting on the wall. And I'm so happy to hear that they are now encouraging dinner dining experience to the customers for the all-day-breakfast and some new mousses cake flavors.

AFTERNOON CAUSETTE

作為吃貨，必須做到上的了天堂下得了地獄，無論是街頭巷角還是盛裝場合都要來去自如！前陣子的烈陽weekend便成就了一個與閨蜜一起“過好日子”的下午。三女子相約與中環的文華東方閣樓文華餅店，餅店作為Cafe Causette的門面屬於全開放式，唯有靠著大面積落地窗的位置，顯得暗雅。精緻的禮品部是第一入眼的，精美包裝在成列出來的粒粒朱古力比較下顯得平乏無奇，排成一列的朱古力每一粒都讓人看得流口水！

Secret Garden in the Air 【Rondavy's Artisan Kitchen】

經過一周五日甚至六日的連軸轉，終於可以暫時turn off 馬達，休息散熱一下，相見恨晚的週末你念著去哪裡消遣呢？逛街？行山？泡咖啡館？不要告訴我你要去泡Starbucks 云云，除非你泡的那一家地處偏遠，不然我打包票你占不到位，只能take away；那個週末我身處人來人往的銅鑼灣，卻享受好似身處郊外小鎮的花園中，白亮又柔和的光線透入來，“主人家”開放式廚房中不斷傳來的叮叮噹噹聲絲毫不覺擾耳。
