Care for a cup of tea and some nibbles mid-day? The English tradition of afternoon tea is alive and well in Hong Kong, where city hotels constantly try to outdo each other with lush offerings. In Hong Kong, this favourite pastime comes with a view of the dazzling skyline, music, or a casual setting for the ultimate luxe experience.
In 1840, the Duchess of Bedford shared her guilty secret of enjoying tea and snacks hours before dinner, soon setting the trend. And since Hongkongers love to eat, it’s no surprise that afternoon tea has become a league of its own in the city. It can be a humble meal but also a luxury indulgence.
So, whether you’re looking for traditional bites or classic egg tarts, something here will appeal to your taste buds. Also, keep an eye out regularly, as most afternoon tea sets are offered on a seasonal basis, sometimes based on a theme.
