High Tea @ Scotts Lounge
As part of an early Birthday treat, decided to spend some time with my lil' sis and take her somewhere nice for a meal. Just for a change from the usual westernised restaurant norms, I took the liberty to reserve a table for 2 at Scott's Lounge - English High Tea!
Well, not sure if you would actually consider it 'Tea' per se, coz they open their doors at 2pm. So yea, kinda still in between lunch and teatime proper. Anyway, I really like the place alot. Quite quaint, good relaxing and chic ambiance, nice working staff, not too crowded and of coz.... good food! Duh!
The both of us ate of guts out I swear, but obviously not in a gluttony matter. It's an English High Tea buffet and they serve up such a wonderful array of teas where you go up to the counter, select your tea (flowers/tea leaves), let the nice guy at the counter know and he'll brew up a plunger of it for you. It's really pretty I reckon. Not to mention, simply delightful as well! Oh ya, they also serve up coffee as well (not just your plain black coffee.... latte, cappacino...etc.) So as you can see, I kinda put myself on a caffeine high that day.
Onto the food - just 3 words - lovely, glorious, satisfying. I'll have to admit that they don't boast a huge spread of food items as compared to most buffets that we're so used to seeing. But that's why I also like it. Personally I feel that you don't have to force yourself to try every single thing coz the spread they lay out is just nice. Also, you really enjoy the taste and quality of each food item there, without spoiling your taste pallets too much!
