Ushering in A New Year of Afternoon Decadence with a Delightful Tea Set Starring Freshly Baked Treats at AIRSIDE Cafe

Relax at AIRSIDE Cafe with an Afternoon Tea

AIRSIDE Cafe, the contemporary dining retreat at AIRSIDE, welcomes 2024 with the launch of a decadent afternoon tea to relish while relaxing amid the airy environs of Kai Tak’s newly opened mall.

Nestled within the AIRSIDE atrium, AIRSIDE Cafe boasts a spacious setting that revolves around a captivating showpiece open kitchen. The artfully crafted layout presents a feast for the senses and provides an elevated position that fills with sunlight filtering through the glass roof. The resulting ambiance creates an enchanting locale where diners can savor a glorious teatime indulgence.

The AIRSIDE Cafe Afternoon Tea (HK$348 for two people) is served between Monday and Friday, from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., and spans an array of eye-catching and enticing savories and sweets. Delightfully presented on an exquisite three-tier rattan cake stand, the delicious treats include enticing savory creations and freshly baked pastries such as housemade scones, canelés, and delectable mini cakes. To enhance the afternoon tea experience, a cup of freshly brewed coffee or tea will be served.

The savory selection is a cut above the norm, crafted from fresh ingredients with a touch of glitz. Lobster Brioche Bun embraces the freshness of lobster and tiger prawn, the tart crunch of apple, and the buttery appeal of salmon caviar. Chicken, Zucchini, Mascarpone, and Truffle Sandwich presents a satisfying combination of tender chicken and refreshing zucchini enriched by mascarpone cheese and truffle, and Crab Meat and Sweet Corn Tart is adorned with the fragrant essence of coriander and the tantalizing texture of puffed wild rice.

A marvellous lineup of freshly baked pastries from AIRSIDE Pâtisserie’s acclaimed collection leads the sweet parade. Tuck into divine French treats like Tahiti Vanilla Canelé, encased in a caramelised crust and revealing a soft, custard-like centre flavoured by rich, floral Tahitian vanilla; and Mille Feuille Tart infused with bitter orange for layer-upon-layer of sensations. Classic Macarons also send sweet-loving hearts racing. The afternoon tea would not be complete without Scones, which are served with raspberry preserves and the adventurous touch of zesty lemon cream.

This afternoon revelry can be extended with a dip or two into the AIRSIDE Cafe wine list….
