Antique Tea Time: Mandarin Oriental and Oulton serve up vintage tea set
For just one month, Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong will be partnering with British furniture guru Timothy Oulton to inject its famed afternoon tea experience with a heavy dose of vintage vibes. Guests partaking in the Rare by Oulton Afternoon Tea Set will be dining amidst a fantastic array of antique rarities chosen by Oulton from across the globe.
As for the food, Executive Pastry Chef Yves Matthey serves up antique tea treats such as Alaskan King Crab with Truffle Toast, Egg Mimosa with Oscietra Caviar and Paris Brest. If that’s not enough to get you feeling nostalgic, elevate your antique tea experience with fancy add-ons such as Iranian Beluga Caviar or a glass of swanky Krug Grande Cuvee champagne (an additional HK$398 and HK$380, respectively).
Running from 15 January to 11 February, the Rare by Oulton Afternoon Tea Set will be available from 2:30pm and 5pm everyday at the Mandarin Oriental lobby lounge. The three-tiered antique tea set costs HK$398 per person. While you’re there, don’t forget to check out the vintage King Albert Edward II Gold Snuff Box and a rare Louis Vuitton Low Hearst Trunk valued at HK$590,000!
