Before I actually came here, I expected a hip and chic place from the dessert pictures and logo, I got this impression from the desserts, you can just see effort has been made into making the desserts, even the logo looks good too.
Interestingly the logo design was outsourced to designers on the internet.
I really liked the interior, it was very classy, there are private rooms convenient for celebrities holding private gatherings away from the paparazzi.
I really liked the silver cups and plates too, the sugar holders, and the paper stars hung on the ceilings, some how I have seen them on sale in uk before.
The drinks menu was good too, they even had earl grey tea, but i didnt like the frothed milk which I thought was for coffee only.
Although it is a dessert place, I felt it was a good place for high tea rather than desserts, because I am not a fan of chinese desserts, so the western selection was perfect with a cuppa.
However the menu could have been better, one page was helpfully in English, however one of the critical pages didnt have English, especially the one with the Western dessert selection set, I had to guess what some of them were.
For the western selection, I chose carrot walnut cake, creme brulee and apple roll.
The carrot walnut cake was the best, firm, wholemeal cake base and butter cream.
The apple was a bit disappointing, however the apple bread pudding was the best, slightly modified from the original using apples instead of raisins.
The fruit shots were ordered for fun, I didnt expect myself to like them, I only liked the strawberry one, as this is closer to Western fruits. The rest was just the normal chinesey mango flavour and guava flavours.
The souffle was good, soft and light and not too sweet.
