Hello friends! It’s a two-in-one post today because I went for the Paddington Bear-themed tea at Skai and of course, I had to read the book before I went. Afternoon Tea Review I first went to Skai in 2020 (apparently also for my birthday) and my friend and I enjoyed it so much that we… Read More Paddington Bear Afternoon Tea @ Skai & Book Review
This afternoon tea collaboration has already ended, but I’m still going to write about it because it was pretty good!! And also because I didn’t write about the regular Sofitel afternoon tea that I had, and I low-key regret that because I need it to remember what I ate. Anyway, the Kamakura Mochi collaboration with… Read More Kamakura Mochi x Sofitel Afternoon Tea
For the past two months, I have been intermittently searching the online newspaper and oral archives about the history of afternoon tea in Singapore and documenting my findings on Substack. The motivation was quite simple: I read a book about the history of afternoon tea in various countries and I wanted to do the same… Read More Why Isn’t There a Clearer History of Afternoon Tea in Singapore?
This review is a bit different from the others because: My mum has been wanting to try The Marmalade Pantry for a while, so when we realised their limited edition Floral Bliss and Scents afternoon tea was available for delivery, we decided to get it delivered! By the way, The Marmalade Pantry fulfils the order… Read More Afternoon Tea Review: The Marmalade Pantry at Home

Which is how I found Afternoon Tea: A History by Julia Skinner. I’ve read a bit about afternoon teas while reading other tea books (such as in A… Read More Tea Book Review: Afternoon Tea by Julia Skinner
To be very honest, this review is more for me than it is for anyone else, because Kyoto in Autumn was a time-limited afternoon tea and I went on the second last day so it’s pretty much over by now. But, I do love anything Japan-themed and after the disappointing afternoon tea from Pan Pacific,… Read More Afternoon Tea Review: Kyoto in Autumn @ Four Seasons
I normally have afternoon tea with one of two sets of friends. This time, however, I decided to call everyone together and the four of us went for the Orchard Trail Afternoon Tea at Hilton Singapore’s Ginger.Lily lounge. Service Review I don’t normally talk about the service at afternoon tea because it’s not that important… Read More Ginger.Lily Afternoon Tea @ Hilton Singapore
It didn’t take long for Ethel and I to decide where to meet now that I’m back – she sent me a link to the Japanese Afternoon Tea at Pan Pacific and I immediately said yes. I love Japan and I love afternoon tea, so this pairing seemed like a match made in heaven. Since… Read More Japanese Afternoon Tea @ Pan Pacific Singapore
Since I have a few Afternoon Tea reviews in this blog, I thought I’d make a master post of ALL the afternoon teas that I’ve tried in Singapore so that it’s easier to compare them/I can send this post to people who ask me which I preferred. This post will be periodically updated, so please… Read More A Roundup of Afternoon Teas in Singapore
Late last year (well actually it was just over a week ago), Ethel and I went to try the Premium Magical Afternoon Tea at Anti:Dote! I’ve heard a lot of good things about anti:dote so I was really excited about this. Food Review The amuse boche was probably the strongest part of the savouries so I… Read More Premium Magical Afternoon Tea @ Anti:Dote (Fairmont Singapore)
