TWG Tea Salon & Boutique @ Siam Paragon

When someone mentions the famous Singaporean TWG Tea Salon & Boutique, the very first thing that usually comes to anyone's mind would probably be the extensive tea list and a set of scones and finger sandwiches. After a walk around Siam paragon, TWG (on the ground floor) would make a nice resting place where you can enjoy your time in a classy manner. Today apart from my usual afternoon tea order, a pot of Happy Birthday tea and scones with whipped cream and tea jelly, I decided to try having dinner there. To my surprise, I enjoyed the All Day Dining dishes more than their tea snacks and desserts. I particularly enjoyed Cherry Duck, roasted duck breast with cherry sauce, and Spice Route Penne, spicy seafood penne.

Cherry duck is a good enough dish to dry for a duck lover. I love there are the orange slices and cherry sauce to give tanginess to the crispy skin duck breast. My only comment was I would to have my duck a little bit more tender and not well done.

Spice Route Penne is just right for the Thai taste. You could request for how hot and spicy you would like this dish to be. This dish made this evening dinner a whole.

So how would I rate TWG Tea Salon & Boutique at Siam Paragon? I would give 7 out of 10 for overall.

• 7 for Food... All Day Dining menu is worth a try. Desserts and tea snacks are average.
• 7 for Ambiance... Classy European vibe is a plus, but it is little bit too noisy for me.
• 8 for Services... The staff are very attentive and helpful.
• 6 for Prices... The tea is charged by pot (around 250 baht per pot) and one pot provides around three cups. After your done, you have to order a new pot. If you are not a hardcore tea enthusiast, you could enjoy the similar tea else where at lower prices or order a glass of their wide selection of ice teas instead. Apart from that, most items on the menu are fair.

Until next time, stay happy and stay full.
