Raffles Hotel Singapore’s gastronomic journey continues as the thematic afternoon tea experience departs from the coastal shores of Norway and arrives in Japan amidst the splendour of the country’s springtime bloom. Delight in the beauty of Japan’s beloved cherry blossom season through the Sakura Afternoon Tea with inspired seasonal delights from 7 March to 15 May 2022 before the voyage embarks to another city of the world.
Step into spring beholding the wonderful sight of a beautiful Sakura tree artfully installed in the middle of The Grand Lobby. Continue to excite the senses as the seasonal Sakura Afternoon Tea invites guests to savour an exclusive selection of delectable savouries such as Beef Sando with Katsu Béchamel; Japanese Omelette with Ikura, a delightful combination of a classic Japanese folded omelette topped with plump salmon roe; and the Surimi Sandwich Mayo and Tobiko Egg.
Inspired by the enthralling beauty of cherry blossoms coming into full bloom, indulge in a lavish spread of classic Japanese desserts, home-baked scones and unique creations by Executive Pastry Chef Tai Chien Lin. Presented exquisitely on a three-tier silver stand, the Sakura Afternoon Tea features a delicate Sakura Strawberry Verrine, tantalising Red Bean Sakura Ice Cream Monaka and velvety Sakura Roll Cake, reminiscent of the colours and the allure of the celebrated seasonal festivity, paired perfectly with a choice of Mariage Frères tea or a Raffles custom-blended coffee.
