27 4 月 Fairmont酒店High Tea
話說呢餐High Tea原本係朋友J同我慶祝我生日嘅﹐但因為我同佢上個月都忙到飛起﹐所以就延期到成個月後嘅星期日先去。其實我以為美國係冇High Tea㗎﹐但有日麥包同我講話佢有兩個同事去咗High Tea喎﹐咁我先知原來Fairmont Hotel係有嘅。真係好多謝朋友J陪我去﹐因為麥包係唔飲茶嘅﹐所以High Tea就真係”唔係佢杯茶”囉﹐佢肯定唔會同我去嘅。
話就話係High Tea﹐但係時間方面真係有D怪﹐竟然係中午十二點到兩點半﹐傳統嘅High Tea最早都三點或三點半先開始啦﹐呢個果然係美式High Tea﹐怪怪地。
Fairmont係間好古典嘅五星酒店﹐High Tea就係喺間叫Georgian嘅餐廳入面。Georgian樓底好高(其實Fairmont入面間間餐廳嘅樓底都好高)﹐檯與檯之間有好多空間﹐坐係入面真係好relax㗎(右圖)。
有嘢食啦~﹗左圖嘅係我同朋友J都order埋一樣嘅【Cherry Rose】- 玫瑰花茶。因為佢係綠茶底﹐所以好清淡﹐加埋玫瑰花香﹐我同朋友J都覺得好正。右圖嘅係當日嘅三層西餅﹑鹹點。
最上層係【Sweets】- 甜品﹔中間嗰層就係【Finger Sandwiches】- 迷你三文治小食
而下層就係【Scones】- 唔知中文係咩﹖
呢到嘅【House-Made Cherry Pinenut Scones】外脆內軟﹐搽埋佢哋嘅【Devonshire Cream & Strawberry Preserves】(左圖)真係好好味﹐我覺得係成個High Tea最美味嘅。
【Balsamic Goat Cheese and Asparagus with Tomato Chutney on Rosemary Bread】
可能我唔食Goat Cheese啦﹐覺得佢有好大嘅羊騷味﹐所以真係唔岩我﹐但朋友J就覺得OK囉。
【Chicken, Bacon, and Potato Salad on Wheat Bread】好好味喎。
【Cucumber and Kumquat Brioche】唔係好食到咩味﹖比較淡。
【Smoked Salmon and Truffled Egg Salad on Rye Bread】
好特別﹐就咁睇仲以為係甜嘅添﹔三文魚同Egg Salad好夾。
【Seasonal Fresh Fruit Tart】係今次最好味嘅甜品﹐因為係最唔甜死人嗰個。
【Pistachio French Macaron】我冇諗過呢個macaron會好似Pierre Hermé嘅咁好食﹐但估唔到真係咁甜﹐。
【Chocolate Devil’s Cupcake】都係一樣﹐超甜﹗
【Pineapple Coconut Bar】呢個好D﹐比較起嚟唔算太甜﹐但都係偏甜。
對於Fairmont嘅High Tea﹐我覺得係不過不失啦﹐好壞參半。可能係我食唔慣美式嘅”甜到漏”甜品啦﹐我諗對美國人嚟講會係唔錯嘅。
嘻嘻﹐今年11月返香港嘅時侯想去High Tea呀~﹗唔知邊個得閒陪我去呢﹖仲有﹐唔知邊到好食呢﹖
