We came for a high tea to celebrate our anniversary. I especially am a high tea enthusiast, and I held high hopes.
The restaurant itself is stunning. Beautiful large windows with exceptional views of the mountains if the clouds disappear.
The service was great, and the tables were beautifully set.
We ordered 2 x kids high tea, one standard, and one Eastern high tea.
I love traditional high tea, with single finger sandwiches with fillings like egg, chicken and celery, cucumber and cream cheese, etc. All of the sandwiches were 3 layers, which i didn't love, and my vegetarian sandwich was soggy.
The kids' high tea had smoked salmon sandwiches included, which i found interesting,
The eastern high tea was interesting, but my partner didn't love it.
It's hard to keep high tea interesting, I get it. I just really love a traditional high tea. For a family of 4 or was $220, which is a big investment when we left a lot on our plates. The best thing, though, is that we were given takeaway containers so we could enjoy the scones later.
Overall, the experience was incredible, but the food was not my most favourite. It's definitely still worth the experience though.
