High Tea, Comfort Food and Unique Antiques at Villa Royale
Villa Royale Antiques & Tea Room, No 3 Tran Ngoc Dien, Thao Dien, District 2, Thu Duc
Thao Dien, District 2, is an enclave of trendy cafés, great restaurants, chic boutique clothing shops and quaint European-style villas like Villa Royale. There is quite a sharp contrast with the peace and serenity of District 2 and Vietnam´s vibrant metropolis, Ho Chi Minh City (District 1 and 3) that never sleeps. Exploring this charming little alcove of Saigon, Thao Dien, is a great way to escape from the bustling city.
The afternoon high tea experience at Villa Royale can´t get more authentic. The villa is a cross between a restaurant shines in dim lights and a gallery, it is filled with many different antiques from all around the world which gives you a special feel. Its dark interior puts many items casually into focus. You want to walk slowly to admire the surroundings. If you dine at the Villa Royale you get to use the beautiful antique tableware. The attentive staff is very helpful and kind.
This high tea experience is suitable for a variety of groups, whether that’s you and a friend enjoying a weekend afternoon, reconnecting memories with your family members, bonding with colleagues or taking your better half on a date. The heart of the drink menu is the fine TWG tea selection though fresh juices or a Vietnamese coffee can be served too. The smoked salmon quiche is the savory highlight as the crispy crust and moisty deliciousness inside are the perfect combination for a good quiche. The mango curried chicken is very tasty and the delicious chocolate macadamia pie with crunchy nuts and melting chocolate is spot on.
High tea in the Lakeside Garden of 5-star JW Marriott Hotel for two
JW Lakeside Gardens - Marriott - No 8 Do Duc Duc Road, Me Tri Ward, South Tu Liem District, Hanoi
Lakes have quite an impact on the city of Hanoi, maybe that is why Hanoi has been given the honorable label “land of the lake”. The lake view increases the feeling of being on top of the world.
An afternoon high tea next to the lake could be something straight out of a romance novel. It´s wonderful to cuddle with the cozy oversize lounge chair while enjoying the high tea and the lake view. The high tea menu at JW Marriott in Hanoi changes with the seasons and the JW Marriott jazz up things occasionally. You can love local signatures on the savory side, freshly baked lemon scones services with crème fraiche or served with homemade jam and all kinds of divine sweets. The TWG Royal Darjeeling tea has a sweet bouquet of peaches, dried fruit and apricots. The tea is filled with sweet notes with fruity citrusy hints, lovely musky and so much more.
