Some of the Main Course Selection:

Pizza



Signature Rotisserie Spring ChickenThis is the perfect Rotisserie Spring Chicken that I'm looking for! Well-Marinated, juicy and tender! The previous time when I'm here, the meat texture was quite tough, not so nice. So I think it depends on who is the chef that cook this.

                 

          Fish of the Day: 

           Barramundi with coconut sauce

                     

Wow we were blown away by this dish, perhaps its due to the aromatic coconut sauce that has enhanced the barramundi's flavour!






I'm glad to see they provide a toaster for us to toast the bread ourselves. Must try their herbs foccacia, toast it and match with their Kombu Truffle Butter. I tell u all hor, this is the only place that u can find this special butter sia, cos it was specially made by the chef here. It was soooo good till I keep going back to have more foccacia because of this unique butter, the aroma & taste was so great till how I wish I can eat this whole bowl of butter into my stomach! Hahahaha!




Buffet Counter Items

Their seafood chowder is nice! 
Tried their truffle mushroom soup before, its way too creamy and watery.




This is my favourite side dish at the buffet counter - Big & juicy clams, unlike some places served only tiny clams.. The broth was thick & flavourful too!
















Most people are looking forward to an array of delightful desserts, unfortunately it will not be at this place. Only the chendol panna cotta is nice, the rest all cannot make it. Although their menu show Cempedak Creme Brulee, it will depends on their chef's choice. If you're lucky, then you'll get to eat this..








Conclusion: Their main course is really quite good, with nice herb foccacia, garlic prawns and clams at buffet counter, I feel its still worth a visit with relaxing & cosy ambience. Service is ok.

Be mindful that don't expect wide variety buffet with this low price, cheapest in Singapore Hotels. Bring your own water bottle if you do not want to pay more than $28++ per pax, otherwise just pay $36++ with free flow drinks.

Nowadays very hard to find High Tea in buffet style..

I think this place has the most "High Tea Feel Ambience" compared to other places!

One of the BEST place to have a heart to heart talk with your partner or group gatherings over a nice cup of illy Coffee or Gryphon Tea, with a wide spread of food and desserts for a high tea.


Ocean King Prawn Congee with Pork Meat Ball


Don't miss this - This is their signature dish that u have to try!!
Large Fresh Prawns + Fresh Fish Slice with a delightful comforting broth. 
I don't really like the pork meatball though..





We usually get to eat those boring classic plain or raisin scones most of the time, so I was really very happy to see they have the fragrant Pandan Scones with Cashew Nuts somemore! My first time to have scone with cashew nuts. The texture is a little hard, but overall taste its still quite good. Hope the chef can improve on the hard texture, then it will be a perfect scone in Singapore!



Crab Rillette & Caviar Tartlets, Laksa Dust Chives
This is my favourite!!! Delicate mini tasty crab tarts!





Classic Egg Salad Sour Dough,
Ginger Flower & Chili Pesto






Pulled Chicken & Onion Milk Bread Sliders with a Hainan Twist Cilantro Cress
Unique taste that you have to try!








Marinated Baked Seabass


Rosemarry Roasted Lamb Shoulder




Their satay was very cold as they're not grilled on the spot. It's all cold by the time they bring out in bulk, hence it doesn't taste so nice.




Recommended Ice Lychee Rose Blend Tea & nice illy Black Coffee!




Passed Around - Caramelised Kurobuta Char Siew
Halfway the buffet, the staff will pass around a plate of char siew on each table. I feel it was too thickly sliced for each piece, the meat was quite hard too. This was quite disappointing though..


Ice Cheng Tng



                                          











                                     
Not bad dessert quality but I hope to see their Pandan Tiramisu as they have it previously before they changed the menu.


Conclusion: I will visit tea lounge again although the price is quite ex, as the food quality is quite good with different kind of food that you don't usually get to eat from normal high tea. Of course not forgetting the nice cosy ambience. Service was very good initially, but they keep forgetting our 2nd drinks order towards the end. 

Note: Below is the menu for April 2024 - I think they change menu monthly.
You may go to their website to see their updated menu.
