Sofitel Sydney Darling Harbour has launched a High Tea series, inspired by Australian fashion illustrator Megan Hess’ acclaimed children’s book character – Claris, the Chicest Mouse in Paris.
Every Saturday afternoon from 1-4pm through October 13, Atelier restaurant on Level 3 of the French-inspired Sofitel Sydney Darling Harbour will be transformed into a wonderful world of teacups, choux and macarons all served on specially designed, Claris the Mouse limited-edition fine porcelain plates with matching cutlery.
Created by acclaimed Australian fashion illustrator Megan Hess, Claris is everyone’s favourite mouse, whose tales of compassion, courage and innate sense of style are brought to life in the beautifully designed and popular rhyming picture books of Claris: the Chicest Mouse in Paris and now the highly anticipated follow-up, Fashion Show Fiasco.
The Claris the Mouse High Tea menu has been specially created by Sofitel Sydney Darling Harbour’s Head Pastry Chef, Puti Firmansyah, who is responsible for all the delicious dessert creations at the hotel.
It costs $69 per person ($35 for children 11 and under, free for 2YO and younger) and includes free-flowing tea and coffee, pink lemonade for younger guests, a selection of savoury and sweet treats, and a chocolate fountain. Champagne is also available at an additional cost. Younger guests attending the High Tea will leave with a Claris the Mouse gift bag. AccorPlus members enjoy a 15% discount.
A special “Claris, the Chicest Mouse in the House” accommodation package is available every Friday and Saturday night to October 12 from $336 a night (prepaid) in a Superior Room, including an overnight stay, late check-out 1pm, breakfast in Atelier, the Claris High Tea on Saturday, and special amenities designed with young mice in mind.
