High Tea @ Royal Copenhagen

After their Southern Ridges hike yesterday morning, AstroBanana managed to get some rest before meeting up with Danon for high tea. They ended up going to the Royal Copenhagen Tea Lounge & Restaurant, which is tucked away in a corner on Level 2 of the Takashimaya Department Store in Ngee Ann City.

Since AstroBanana's idea of high tea always revolves around Ya Kun or Toast Box, it should be pretty obvious by now that Danon was the one who suggested that they go to the Royal Copenhagen Tea Lounge & Restaurant. Then again, to be fair to him, he always has good recommendation for food places.

They each ordered a cup of Royal Copenhagen Coffee, which Eric Banana found to have a delightful taste without being overpoweringly strong. Danon ordered a Honey Date Pudding while AstroBanana had a cake each (she chose the Cranberry Almond while he went for the Carrot Cake).

There is this hot bun that the cafe only serves with its soups. Danon wanted to have it so badly that he managed to cajole the waitress into taking orders for the hot buns only. It was interesting to witness Danon working his magic. And yes, it involved some hand gestures too.

By the way, the hot buns were really nice. AstroBanana decided that they need to go back one day to try other items on the menu. High tea or dinner, anyone?
