Afternoon Tea: 3-6pm daily

Note: Afternoon Tea can only start a bit later from 3.30pm on Sundays as they have a super long lunch Sunday buffet up till 4.30pm, hence the whole ambience will be quite noisy till 4.30pm) Try to come during Mon-Sat if possible.

SGD48++* includes a high tea set and unlimited servings of specialty coffee and TWG tea


*Each set serves two people

Visited on 2nd April 2017 (Sun). Lime restaurant has recently revamped their afternoon tea menu from those english afternoon tea to a more local flavor, creatively infused with sweet and savoury local flavours. 












 

Top Tier Desserts: 
Carrot Cake / Passion Fruit Meringue Tart
Coconut Pandan Mousse / Peanut Butter Chocolate Cup with Gianduja Chantilly

This peanut butter chocolate cup is a beautiful dessert! 
The 2nd nicest dessert besides the coconut pandan mousse.



And this is the coconut pandan mousse tart! The main attraction among the whole tier. A very fragrant and soft mousse cake that will definitely leave you a deep impression.



This was my first time seeing a carrot cupcake! There were shreds of carrots inside the cupcake!



2nd Tier Savoury: 
Peking Duck Duxelles encased in Profiterole
Snow Crab & Green Apple Open-faced Sandwich
Shaved Serrano Ham Open Sandwich with Pickles


My Favourite: Snow Crab & Green Apple Open-faced Sandwich

3rd Tier Savoury: 
Expression of Nasi Lemak / Ayam Percik Shepherd's Pie


 
This is their version of Nasi Lemak, very unique rice ball. Spicy and aromatic!










Latte Macchiato


Cappucino


Overall impression: Price wise, the wide selection of tea and coffee makes it fairly reasonable and Lime restaurant is definitely one of the most value for money high tea place!

Overall, I can feel the improvements. They have improved their service as well! There is a sense of effort in the high tea items as you can see they have come up with unique items this time round which you can't find at other place. The quality of the high tea items were quite good! But personally, I still prefer a Traditional English afternoon tea. Nonetheless, this is still a very relax place for high tea at affordable price!

Sample Menu for your reference
(Buffet items on rotation)




Overall Impression: The restaurant was crowded and the table settings were very near to each other, so i don't feel that comfortable. Service was average as it took quite a long time for the staff to clear our plates. Food selection was just nice - There're still quite a number of items that I did not take photo.

Food quality considered quite good here! Their desserts were decent but their presentation for desserts were much nicer than other hotel restaurants. It's quite hard to find a hotel buffet at $66 with snow crab, oysters etc and live music. But I would rather the buffet without the live music, so that the price can be below $60..Haha..
