Bastille High Tea at the Sofitel
French high tea at the Sofitel? Oh la la.
Overview
A high tea at the Sofitel is the height of luxury, but a high tea inspired by the French, the queens of cake and cheese? Step aside. For a reasonable $55 you can indulge in a kir royale on arrival and then chomp (elegantly) through a spread of sweet and savoury treats in the Sofitel’s 30th floor Club Lounge. This year's tea was inspired by the 2015 Pantone Colour of the Year, marsala, and will feature scones, French pastries, ribbon sandwiches, raspberry choux a la creme, cherry cone mousse and pistachio sacher torte. Zut alors. Do make sure you sing 'Non, je ne regrette rien' loudly as you waddle home, full of French treats.
