Fancy a refreshing delight on a sweltering day? The iconic Raffles Hotel Singapore is calling you. With their First Citrus Afternoon Tea experience—introducing their six unique citrus flavours (highly recommended if you want to overcome your indecisiveness) and citrus-infused delicacies conscientiously curated by Executive Pastry Chef Tai Chien Lin, coming your way from 7 June to 4 August. Dig up your casual chic outfits and buckle up. I'm telling you, there are loads to choose from.
Indulge yourself in their ample array of citrus-infused desserts paired with delectable savoury creations that feature kaffir lime, pink pomelo, cedrat, finger lime and yuzu. All meticulously sourced from across Asia, Australia and France.
Kicking off with the savoury selection—the Foie Gras Crème Brûlée with Grapefruit Espuma. Where the tangy grapefruit adds a lively touch to the caramelised sweetness of a crème brûlée. Not a fan? No worries—try the Smoked Salmon Blinis, served on delicate mini pancakes and accented with kaffir lime jelly. A real treat. For those with simpler tastes, there is a variety of finger sandwiches, including Egg Mayonnaise and Tuna Mayonnaise with Alfalfa Sprouts.
Presented on a three-tier silver stand, the experience features an inventive variety of treats. This includes a Kaffir Lime Chocolate Crèmeux, the sweet and tangy Pink Pomelo Cheesecake, the aromatic Cedrat Ginger Cake, the Verbena Finger Lime Tartlet and the Strawberry Yuzu Rollcake.
Enhance your experience with either a selection of single garden teas, Raffles' custom-blended coffee beans, a glass of Billecart-Salmon Champagne Brut at SGD33++ per glass or Champagne Rosé at SGD43++ per glass.
If you're feeling zesty, swing by for the Citrus Tea Experience. It's open from Monday to Sunday from 12pm to 5:30pm at The Grand Lobby, Raffles Hotel Singapore
