I was so happy to finally try TWG.  I have heard so much about it.  I have not tried it in Singapore or elsewhere so this will be my first ever TWG experience

After being overwhelmed with all the things inside the store – from teas to candles to accessories – I went to the dining area

Our table

Everything is imported including the tablecloth which had TWG logos on it 

Because there were so many teas to choose from, we did not know what to order 🙂  We took some time to decide on our tea

Love the names of the teas.  I imagine the Starbucks baristas memorizing all the blends of coffee, and now trying to imagine how the staff in TWG can know all the 800 teas 🙂

Kurt was well versed about the teas

This is where they get the teas

They can bring it to you so you can smell it.  The smell is really so pronounced that you can really feel and taste it by just smelling it

We were choosing between Happy or Sexy Tea.  I told them we are already happy and that we may need the sexy tea! So we finally decided on the SEXY TEA! 🙂

My pretty lunch mates who joined me – Mother daughter Ria and Dina – who actually look like sisters.  We shared everything since we wanted to try as many things as we could

Our lunch

Eggs Benedict

I felt the Eggs Benedict needed a little more salt and pepper- even the salt and pepper are TWG 🙂 

Curried lamb stew

TWG Tea Lasagna – Bolognaise which comes with bread in a dainty doily to line it

Ordered a side order of Rice Pilaf infused with Taiping Tea to go with the Curried Lamb stew

And for dessert, we wanted to try another tea – this time iced!  We saw them preparing this for another table so we wanted to try it.  Very nice and refreshing to go with our dessert 

You can buy the tea sugar in beautiful bottles

Happy TWG customers

We ordered a couple of desserts to try as well

The waiter recommended the Singapore surprise since it was one of their bestsellers

And we still had the Tea Pastries which I thought was a very good deal especially if you just want to have tea/high tea – this is P 150.00 for all of this – you can choose either Madeleines, Financiers, Muffins, scones or caneles and it comes with TWG Jelly and whipped cream

You can buy the jelly as well in bottles

And that was not yet it, we had sorbets

Sakura Sakura Tea Sorbet

 

Napoleon Ice Cream which we liked very much

 Cute this tea – LOVE ME TEA 🙂
