Summer Fun Latte Art Workshop x Afternoon Tea Experience
Since Summer is also a great time for family bonding, The Lounge will introduce, for the first time ever, a parent-child Latte Art Workshop, offering creative crafting and delightful treats for parents and their little ones this July and August.
Under the guidance of Maggie Mui, certified barista and The Lounge restaurant manager, guests will learn to make a cup of cappuccino and babyccino; practise their milk texturing, pouring and etching skills; and pick up basic latte art design. The new afternoon tea set and a specially designed kid’s platter, featuring all-time favourites such as a Bacon Sausage Roll, Chicken Nugget, Potato Cheddar Cheese Roll and Mini Ham Pizza, will be served following the class. Guests can also take home a surprise gift specially designed for this occasion.
Four workshops will take place on Friday, 19 and 26 July, and 9 and 16 August from 2 to 4:30 p.m., and are priced at HKD538 nett per one adult and one child (aged four or above.)
