My first High Tea experience in Hong Kong - not that great. Not bad, but not fantastic either. This is the first time i've been to High Tea in Hong Kong. I think my expectations were too high. I actually thought it was going to be desserts, desserts and more desserts. In fact, at Cafe One, it was more sushi, sashimi, hot foods, cold meats, dim sims and a very small table of desserts. But at 3.30pm - 5.30pm, how much can you eat? For people that like savoury, i'm sure you'd enjoy this buffet alot more than me. For $160 honkie per person, I think it can be a dinner!!! They had salmon, salads, fish & chips (which I hadn't had for a very long time, and I do miss..)tandoori chicken, dumplings, spring rolls, BBQ pork buns, steamed yumcha dumplings. One thing that was really nice was their chickpea salad. It was sooo good! mmmhhh ... =P
The desserts they had: Sago, blueberry and mango puddings, soft serve ice cream, immediately made waffles - which tasted like flour, apple crumble, two different cheesecakes, a chocolate cheesecake (this scored "+") hehe =)
They also had a fruit and marshmellow fondeau, which was ok, nothing special.
Another "++" for the pineapple pieces was MEGA fresh and very sweet, very yummy. But thats because they are in season now in Hong Kong! I've bought that type of quality pineapple from City Super for $18 honkie for 6 slices!!!
