High Tea

Sound pretty geriatric? Noooo! High Tea is fun. I think it should be the next 'Coffee House" fad! Lets catch up over coffee? Nooo - lets catch up and manga over high tea! Lets get to know each other over drinks at the bar? Noooo - Lets high tea it!

You ask Why? Dude.... it comes with fooooood!

High Tea @ Patisserie Gateau

Went here with my friend last week. This is probably the 6th high tea place we have tried. The prices were pretty great considering the amount you get for only 2 people! There was not much of tea selection... Lemon tea, hong kong tea, and hot chocolate?! I chose the lemon honey tea, as I felt a cold coming on. Tasted like the same one I make at home when I am sick. Not a good choice when mixed with tuna sandwiches and sweets. We were definately impressed with the amount of food. The sandwiches were pretty 'english high tea'-plain and the sweets were nice. I think the best part I liked were the chocolate covered strawberries - sweet strawberries!! But, we have tried fancier and tastier. I would recommend this as a quick plain snack for a group of 3, but it would not be my first choice. By the end of it I felt sooo full and my tummy was heavy... considering I also had lunch that day. High Tea should be light and tasty. Nice thing about this high tea place was that it is open till 9 pm, when usually it is only served from 2-4pm, though you need to call in a day before. 3/5*
