Valentines special- Pink PM Tea@Chihuly Lounge
Sunny
This year, someone invited me to stay at Ritz Carlton, an experience with the trademark octagonal windows(, just nice the 15 days of chinese new year weren't over), soaking in the auspicious factor and its lounges. Instead, we went for Pink Afternoon Tea Buffet at Chihuly Lounge. Pink-themed pastries, pink-themed desserts and pink-themed sandwiches with your loved one(s), under the dome-shaped Ritz Carlton lounge.
Pink roses, to replace the daises used in the ongoing spring-themed season buffet. And Moët & Champon Grand Vintage Rosé 2006 poured exclusively for Valentine's Day.
Pink Afternoon Tea Buffet (SGD 58.00)
A mash of oriental and western, Potato Curry Turnover, Salmon Confit, Tofu and Sesame Tofu Dressing, Baked Slice Beef and White Asparagus. It was the first time I had white asparagus and the beef was more tender than it appeared.
Steamed Scallop Siew Mai and Salted Egg, the prized collection on top was salted egg, Bake Spicy Eringi Mushroom and Oriental Pesto Sauce. Chicken puff served in a glass pastry with aburi cheese, jam, cress. Slow Cooked Egg, Truffle Jus and Chive in a ceramic bowl. Egg as cold and bewildering as the truffle jus.
Suddenly the staff started wheeling a trolley of cakes, which looked sold at Colony, opposite, too. I caught a few of them- Lychee Tart, Lychee Mousse, Rose Pain de Gene (alcohol) and Elderflower Jelly, Red Velvet, Cream Cheese and Berries Compote, and cheesecake.
Such service of pushing a cake counter was unexpected for the price, and on Valentine's Day.
Pink-themed Goose Liver Parfait, Port Wine Cherry and Cress was barely touched by me, I can only say tastes change, and Baked Honey Glazed Stuff Chicken. Finger sandwiches were Graviax Salmon, Lettuce Salad and Almond Ring, Egg Salad, Miso Mayonnaise and Seaweed Roll, Beef Pastrami, Celery Salad and Mini Croissant.
Box of chocolates and Ritz Carlton's rose for every diner on the table, Happy Valentine's Day.
Gold foil and pomegranate shortcake that focused on lightness and natural sweetness.
Sakura toast with honey, and vanilla ice cream poured over the berries compote, a bold and tangy customised dessert.
Hediard jams, strawberry, and orange to go with clotted cream and plain scone.
Heart-shaped balloons, and not red lanterns filled up the lounge for an eerie, sexy atmosphere. Later, did I found out that the Pink Afternoon Tea Buffet modelled after Chihuly Lounge's tea-themed spring afternoon tea buffet, only with the tea flavoured desserts swapped for a three-tiered dessert stand. At least I got my two stalks of roses, two Valentine's Day balloons, a box of Ritz Carlton's chocolates home.
P.S. Checking into Ritz Carlton later? The complimentary chocolates dark chocolate, Brandy white, and champagne lavender chocolates would be good to rev up the spirit.
