Cosy but a little warm waiting area for you if you're early.






TWG Tea are served here!



Tablescape is quite a big restaurant, with 2 sections. This is the first section.




And here is the next section.



Plush sofa seats!


This is their beverage counter.



Table by the window!











Their rainbow cake was quite spongy, I like!



Very beautifully crafted rose shape Orange Chocolate Chip cupcake, it was aromatic with light orange taste..




I love this open-faced prawn with mayonnaise on the crunchy baguette!





They have really nice, crunchy and aromatic buttery taste of warm scones!



The staff will come and ask for your ice-cream selection. 3 choices to choose from: Chocolate, Strawberry or Vanilla. 







Overall Impression: Do note that they have 2 seatings which I was not being informed. Service was not bad. Once we were seated, they will quickly serve us coffee or tea. The high tea items were mostly decent except a few were really good. For this price of $45 Nett for 2 people includes free flow of coffee or TWG tea + a single scoop of movenpick ice-cream is really a steal especially in Sentosa hotel. Ambience was relaxing too. As this is a very popular dining deal, try to make reservation at least 2 weeks - 1 Month in advance.

First time seeing unique shape of sugar!



First Course: Tea Mocktail and


Tea Mocktail of that day was Apple Tea! It's always nice to have a welcome drink so as to keep ourselves refreshed first before we started our high tea! 



Selection of Crackers with Sambal Belachan






2nd Course: Tea Or Coffee Ceremony
Coffee Selection: Cappucino





Tea Selection: Apple Dreams  - Heard the staff mentioned that this is a very popular choice of tea here. The taste was quite sour type.



3rd Course: 
Poached Salmon with Truffle Herbs Sauce
This is the only BEST food here for the weekday high tea. It was poached to perfection, extremely tender inside, complemented very well with the truffle herbs sauce!



4th Course: 3-Tier Tea Set Stand
The scones were decent, nothing impressive...








5th Course: Berries with Bora-Bora Vanilla Cream
6th Course: Lime Sorbet


7th and 8th Course:
(Pass Around Trolley)
Tea Cake and Cookies Selection
Kueh Lapis and Pralines Selection


Only the Pandan Kueh Lapis is nice, very aromatic! 




Overall Impression: The ambience was classy and relaxed with the pianist playing soothing tunes.. Service was not bad, all the staff were very polite but not as good as I've expected from Ritz Carlton, as our cups and plates were not cleared for quite long until I asked the staff to clear for us. 

And the whole 3-tier tea stand were disappointing.. Nothing impressive from the 3-tier, only the poached salmon from the 3rd course was good and the Pandan Kueh Lapis from the last course.  The prices here definitely is not on par with the food quality expectations. If you're looking for ambience rather than the food quality, you may try here. Otherwise, I would rather you have your afternoon tea at The Landing Point.

High Tea at Atrium Lounge Marina Mandarin (6 Raffles Boulevard - Marina Mandarin Singapore, Singapore 039594) Reservation:6845 1111

Visited on 16 August 2015 (Sun).

Enjoy a weekend 3-Tier afternoon tea, inclusive of coffee or tea at only $42++ for 2 persons at the Atrium Lounge.

Available on Saturdays & Sundays only, from 3pm to 5.30pm










Earl Grey from Twinings and Latte









The scones here were much bigger than many other hotels that tasted quite nice..







Overall Impression: For the price of $42++ for 2 pax, I've already expected nothing outstanding, just a decent afternoon tea with normal coffee and tea, which is why I did not comment much about the food items above. But the ambience here was really comfy and romantic. If you just want to have a quiet and cosy ambience for a affordable afternoon tea, you can try this place. :)
