10 Scotts has an aura of elegance and relaxation with its contemporary yet classic decor. This place is quite 'atas' so i would suggest that you not dress too casually. The service here was quite good but not warm... Plates were cleared regularly, food and beverages were served promptly.
The ambience here is a 'tai-tai style' of high tea with comfy sofa and cushions for you to couch. It makes you feel right at home (Residential-Style Lounge) with collection of designed rooms.

Was quite disappointed to see they do not serve tea in a nice teapot at this classy place. Anyway i chose Rooibos Vanilla tea originating from Madagascar, the vanilla was too light so the taste was average only.. My partner ordered Latte which was average too.
Thankfully they still have fruit juices. Juices for the day was Orange and Pineapple Juice. I chose my favourite Orange Juice - They're freshly squeezed with natural sweetness taste! Is this the only hotel restaurant that offers unlimited fruit juices for high tea?
The afternoon tea set was served in a simple 2-tier glass stand.
Top Tier items: Cucumber sandwich, Quiche, Beef Roll, Quail Egg with Prawn Salad
The top tier items were nothing spectacular, very ordinary....
Bottom Tier items: Their famous Crab Cake, Curry Puff, Popiah, Smoked Salmon
The curry puff was surprisingly very good - premium flaky curry puff here!
I never expected this simple looking crab cake turned out to be a surprise for me - The crab cake was divine!!! It was crispy with real succulent crab meat and seemed like all the goodness were inside. I just can't get over this yummy crab cake with remoulade sauce! Remember to get more refill for this great food there!
The smoked salmon was fresh and appetizing!
The freshly prepared popiah was decent...
The freshly baked scones were very light, soft and buttery. Very different from other restaurants. Dip them with kaya, clotted cream & raspberry jam spread to have a more delightful taste!
I dislike restaurants that do not label their food items and 10 Scotts is one of them. The whole buffet counter did not have any labels put up, so we just guessed what we were eating..
Semi Buffet Counter
The bottom is coconut pastry - very nice!
The tiramisu was very light and i like that piece of chocolate flake atop! But lacked the alcohol 'punch' otherwise it would be perfect.
Crispy buttery tart with fresh fruits!
Opera Cake was decent...
Love these dark chocolate tarts so much! The sweetness and the chocolate portion were just nice!
Brownies and Apple Crumble - The Apple Crumble was quite good!
Sushi counter
Great to see they have peking duck roll for high tea! The shredded duck and the sauce was too little so the taste was a tad bland but it's still a satisfactory appetizer!
Cheese & Ham counter. They use this ham slicer for freshly sliced ham..
Bread counter..
Briyani counter..
They have a chiller that you can help yourselves with the salads and sorbet in a jar. They have very nice sorbet! Must-Try!
Note: This is not in their menu now
And here comes the "Fried Egg served in a Frying Pan"!
This is the main highlight of the dessert section. Vanilla ice-cream to form the egg white, while the egg yolk is mango passion puree complemented with raspberry sauce. There's a sponge cake below the fried egg as well (See photo below). This creative dessert was visually attractive and interesting! The overall taste was very refreshing, definitely among the best dessert I've had in hotels!
The sponge cake to put below the fried egg!
The best thing about having high tea at 10 Scotts - All food and beverages are refillable and no restriction on the switch of beverages!
*Recommended*
